Jon Draper
Hey! I'm Jon Draper, an animator and AI studio consultant with a passion for bringing characters to life and telling stories. My journey kicked off in the UK, where I studied illustration and animation. Where my 3D degree film snagged a Royal Television award - which was nice!
Over the past 20+ years, I've been on a wild ride through the world of animation. I've dabbled in everything from 2D to 3D, film, mastering After Effects, VFX, and video editing along the way. In 2013, I took the plunge, moved to the coast and started Stormy Studio. We've had a blast working with global companies and picking up some shiny awards too!
Having tinkered with coding projects over the years, in 2022 I took a keen interest in AI, I eventually launched aianimation.com, a hub for creatives that's grown to over 4,500 users. I also run a YouTube channel where I geek out about AI animation and share tools and techniques.
From traditional hand-drawn animation to cutting-edge AI, I love pushing the boundaries of what's possible in this field. It's been an incredible journey, and I'm excited to see where this blend of creativity and technology takes us next!
