Jeani Varty

Jeani Varty is a young director and visual development artist who has been active in the industry since 2016. Having worked as a freelancer turned trainer for 4 years at Mollo animation academy, she has gained an appreciation for the developing artist and community at large. Jeani has since struck out on her own as a freelancer, working on multiple shows and developing her own IP. Her main focus now is shifting to building digital art and animation communities, networks, and spaces for freelancers, artists and young animators looking to learn – this is done through her discord server, SADAC – the South African Digital Arts Community. Jeani aims to create engaging stories that resonate locally and internationally that empower and entertain in a way that is uniquely hers to share.
