SHUDO Graphics and Animation was founded by Tiaan van Niekerk, a seasoned professional with over 30 years of experience in the graphics and 3D industry. Tiaan’s journey began at the Technicon Pretoria’s Design School, where he studied Graphic Design and Photography. His career took off in 1992, working at various design houses, progressing from a junior graphic artist to Head of Graphic Design and Animation at GAA in 2005.

In 2016, after being retrenched, Tiaan established SHUDO Graphics and Animation, creating a collaborative space where talented individuals with diverse skill sets could come together. Since then, SHUDO has been delivering a wide range of services, from 3D modeling and animation to video production.
