Hello! My name is Rusty Yunusoff. I'm a storyboard artist, illustrator, animator, and motion graphics designer. Basically, I'm a one-man show. I've worked on numerous animation and TV projects in Hollywood, including Golan the Insatiable (airing on FOX) and The Awesomes (streaming on Hulu). I also worked for several corporate clients, including Botox, Disney, Kroger, and Amazon. My animated films have been submitted at festivals in Washington, D.C., Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paolo, Munich, and Brussels. I love working with people and transform the written word into a compelling visual story. Let's tell a story together!
