Freelance Writer
Rafael Motamayor is a contributing freelancer for IGN covering everything anime and animation. He has over five years of experience in the animation industry with bylines at Vulture, IndieWire, and more. He was also part of a New York Press Club award-winning team of writers.
When he isn't writing, you can find him trying to catch up on the new seasonal anime before realizing how impossible that is, or thinking about how great Lost was. He has a relatively healthy obsession with model kits, and posts all about them on Twitter @RafaelMotamayor.
