Benjamin Davis, Gameplay Animator, Santa Monica Studio

I am an animation artist with experience contributing to world-class titles at Sony Santa Monica Studio and Riot Games. I worked on God of War Ragnarök and League of Legends, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to deliver high-quality, performance-driven animation for globally recognized franchises. I'm passionate about crafting expressive, responsive movement that elevates gameplay and storytelling. Growth is at the core of my career and I'm constantly refining my craft, studying performance, and pushing myself technically and creatively. Animation isn't just my profession; it's what drives me.
