Asm Kawsar

Hello World, Welcome to my website. My name is Abu Saleh Mohammad Kawsar, and I am from Dhaka, Bangladesh.

I am a CG Generalist and Founder of a small Animation & VFX studio named
“Studio Tik Tok” (nope, it has no connection with the famous App. I do love robots a lot and I was inspired by the “Tik-Tok of OZ“).

I got my B.Sc Degree (in Mechanical Engineering) from Rajshahi University of Engineering & Technology (RUET) but I chose Visualization as my career path. I devoted myself to learn AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Autodesk 3D Studio Max, Maya, Adobe After Effects etc. and providing services as a Self-Employed CG Generalist.

Due to the covid lockdown, I could not attempt to further my education. So I started to take online courses. I took “Graphic Design” course & “Google UX Design” courses from Coursera. Achieved Adobe Certified Professional (After Effects) and Autodesk Certified User (3D Studio Max) Certification and completed Professional Online Course “Introduction to 3D with Maya” from Gnomon School of VFX, LA, USA.

Now, I am looking forward to pursuing an MFA Degree from USA so that I can enhance my knowledge and provide better services.

Work Folio
