About
I'm Neel. I make the web move.
I'm a creative developer and motion designer who sits between design and code. I studied animation, taught myself JavaScript, and now build 3D websites, launch films and live visuals for brands, agencies and the occasional band.
I care about motion that means something. Every animation should explain, guide or delight, and still work on a ₹12,000 phone on a train. If it doesn't, I cut it.
Neel Studio is me plus a small group of 3D artists, sound designers and developers I've worked with for years.
