“Thinh is a one-of-a-kind talent who understands the complex intersection between character, feel and gameplay as expressed in animation. His animations were a central part of our award-winning game, Hades, and his creative voice was integral to the fast, immediate and hard-hitting feel of the game. He also made many of the narrative and character-focused animations in the game, and worked alongside our small team with diligence, skill and care. As a designer, you dream of someone like Thinh who can carefully manage the art, technical requirements and gameplay constraints, while also being mindful of optimization, performance and the player experience”

-Amir Rao, Studio Director at Supergiant Games

“Describing Thinh as a great animator would be accurate, but doesn't tell the whole story. Aside from his expressive animation work, he is also a terrific motion graphics artist who could quickly stand up animatics for UI or VFX concepts. Additionally, he can convincingly model, create VFX and even do environment design in-engine. He is a quick and efficent animator, with a great eye for movement and characterization. His work took our characters to the next level, and it was always a pleasure to see them come to life under his hand. Having his versatility and artistic sensibility on the team was a great asset, and I hope to work with him again soon.”

-Vicent Maccioli, previously Art Director at FunPlus

“From the moment Thinh joined the team at Lolapps he immediately demonstrated skills far beyond his position. His creativity and observations brought life and energy to everything he worked on, never ceasing to push forward in creating better and better animations. He is an incredibly fast learner and is always looking for innovative solutions to whatever challenge comes his way. His positive attitude and encouragement became a staple to our team and I would gladly recommend him for any position that he applies for!”

-Brandon Pike, previously 2D Artist at LolApps

“I have been working with Thinh for more than a year at TinyCo. He is a fantastic animator, with very good technic, and very polyvalent. He jumps on new stuff very fast and the quality of his work never ceased to increase. On top of that, he is a wonderful human being, super dynamic and very open minded. I strongly recommend him.”

-Jeremie Carvin, previously Senior Animator at TinyCo

“Animators with Thinh's passion and talent are rare. At Spiritwalk, we are a small shop, working through the additional challenges of offsite work. Thinh quickly got up to speed, surpassed expectations, and then continued beyond what was asked of him to add additional quality to the game. His, 'I got this attitude' to any direction he was thrown, and his additional initiative to find solutions to aid myself when things weren't perfect make Thinh a coworker I will always want to work along side of.”

-Ira Goeddel, previously Lead Technical Artist at Spiritwalk Games

“I had the pleasure of managing Thinh for 3 years at DeNA. Thinh played a key role in leveling up the animation and art quality of games at DeNA. He not only helped to restructure the character rigs in Spine to create more efficient workflows and animation quality, but also collaborated with the art director and concept artists to bring more value to the characters themselves. Thinh’s efforts greatly contributed towards the success of BB2. He was also actively involved with prototyping a 2.5D animation rig in Maya when we moved away from Spine. He would help troubleshoot new workflows and tools, and helped define the final auto rigging tools used to create the 2.5D rig. Thinh’s work ethic, professionalism, and drive are truly rare in the gaming industry. While others spend their extra time surfing the net, Thinh would be upgrading his skills by watching tutorials and experimenting with new techniques. I hope to work with Thinh again in the future.”
