Radé Zorkot

Animation. Motion Graphics. Illustrations

Radé Zorkot, born in Ivory Coast on September 24, 1994. Interested in stories since I was a kid and then in stories in advertising.

I found greatness in communicating a story in a very short time. I got passionate in animation and storytelling in animations during my second year in university (at Academie Libanaise des Beaux-Arts in Beirut, Lebanon where I completed my master in Directing 2D animation).

Where I also developed a taste for character design and concept arts. Today I work at Leo Burnett, a multinational agency based in Beirut, Lebanon; and when I am not working I like surfing, skating and developing my drawing skills.
