KC Englander (they/them) is a visual artist specialized in stop-motion, whose film experience runs 17 years deep. As a Production Designer, Fabricator and Set Dresser, they find the collaborative practice of “make-believing” — of shepherding works from concept, through iteration, into actualized form — a rare joy and privilege.

KC invents rich visual narratives and hand-builds robust worlds from scratch, with an elegant eye and clever resourcefulness. They bring open communication, buoyant humor, and a solution-oriented attitude to the dynamic puzzle of production. A compassionate team-builder who leans into the strengths of their fellow crew, KC strives to be a force for improvement and inclusion in all their collaborations.

Originally from New Mexico and currently based in Oregon, KC can also be found performing live music and puppetry, helping tend on Indigenous land projects, sportsing with queers, or walking riverside with their partner and dog.
