Gabriele Siculiana is interested in 3d modeling, 3d animation, motion design, web design and illustration. To this must be added a growing interest in character design.
He likes minimalism but his works are not minimalists. Tends to reduce everything to the essentials seeking clean forms and well-defined.
For him, the animation should be dynamic and eye-catching, there must be rhythm and progression but should be free of unnecessary movements.
When designing he always seeks a dynamic and efficient workflow.
