About Me

Hi, I’m Mario Molinaro, an Animator and Graphic Designer with five years
of professional experience in animation, visual storytelling,
and creative content development.

I began my career in animation, spending a year as a 2D Animator with
Smiley Guy Studios, where I contributed to the production of animated content
and strengthened my skills in character animation, timing, and visual storytelling.
This experience provided a strong creative foundation that continues to inform
my design work today.

Over the past two years, I have created bilingual packaging, print, and digital assets for Cuisinart and Conair, supporting product launches and marketing initiatives across North America. My work includes product photography, image retouching, renderings, mock-ups, and packaging development for major retailers such as Walmart, Costco, Shoppers Drug Mart (QUO), and Dollarama. With expertise spanning both animation and graphic design, I focus on delivering visually compelling, brand-consistent creative solutions that connect with audiences
and support business objectives.
