Steve Talkowski

Creative Director | Sketchbot Studios

A veteran of the computer animation scene, Steve has worked as an animation director and character animator on hundreds of national brands ranging from BMW, Pepsi, General Mills, Target, Reese's, and M&M’s. A most productive stint at Blue Sky Studios found him working on the ground-breaking feature films Joe's Apartment, Ice Age, Alien Resurrection, and the 1988 Academy Award-winning short, Bunny.

In 2008, Steve launched Sketchbot Studios and self-produced his first foray into the designer toy scene - the retro-styled, pencil-wielding robot, Sketchbot. In 2010, the Sketchbot platform served as the basis for two highly successful DIY custom art shows held in NYC and LA.

Currently residing in Los Angeles, CA, Steve’s current focus has been character design and 3d modeling for a variety of clients, in addition to being fully immersed in the next evolution of real-time computer graphics and virtual reality
