WELCOME 3D CENTRAL, home to the character animation work of Jason Baskin.

Thanks for stopping by. My one-man Maya animation studio is located in beautiful Portland, Oregon. I have been creating 3D artwork and animation for broadcast and games since 1993 (see client list).

My animated short films Cubism and Flakes have appeared in several major festivals including Spike and Mike's Sick and Twisted Show, The Northwest Film Festival, and The Third Screen Film Festival.

I am currently a Freelance Animator and a full-time Animation Instructor at The Art Institute of Portland.

Although I specialize in character animation, I also offer character design, modeling, and rigging services. For larger projects, I work with a collective of local artists, sound designers, and engineers who offer a diverse set of skills beyond 3D. Together, we are able to handle all aspects of game and broadcast production. Please feel free to browse through my gallery. If you have a project that could use a bit of 3D character, don't hesitate to drop me a note.
