Shrinivas Kulkarni

I turn ideas into experiences — whether that's a polished UI on a screen, a 3D world in a viewport, or a story told through motion and light. With 2+ years of hands-on work across UI/UX design, VFX, 3D art, and video editing, I sit at a rare intersection: I understand how an interface should feel to a user, and I also know how to make it look cinematic. That combination means I don't just design screens — I think about the full visual journey from first click to final frame. On the design side, I've built wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity interfaces for web and mobile using Figma and Adobe XD, working closely with developers to make sure what gets built actually matches what was designed. I care about systems, consistency, and experiences that don't make users think too hard. On the creative side, I've worked in VFX at Phantom FX using Houdini and After Effects, created motion graphics and video content at RepIndia and Flyp Up, and spent years developing a visual instinct that most UI designers simply don't have. I solve a specific problem: teams that need someone who can own the visual layer end-to-end — from UX logic to motion to final edit — without handing off between five different people. Currently pursuing my MSc in Animation & Design at Jain University, and looking for a UI/UX or creative technologist role where design, motion, and product thinking come together.
