Uncover Hidden Talent: Hire the World’s Top New Digital Artists
I liked computers and I liked performing so I thought I would combine them by learning 3D animation but then blossomed into wanting to create 3D art. After graduating, I started using Substance Designer in my spare time, I've now developed a real passion for material creation. Achieved a first in BSc Computer Animation and VFX (Class of 2020) from Portsmouth university.
Ever since I was little, I have watched most of Disney's 2D animated films and became quite a big fan. I didn't realise it at the time that i wanted to become an animator but I loved how the characters were drawn and how they came to life. I loved all the colours in the films and how the moods could easily change due to sound. I will always love 2D films or series' over live action because there is no limit with animation. Gaming has also given me a boost of encouragement!
I have always been a massive film fan, from a child and still today (my friends say I'm one of the only people left that still collects physical DVDs). Watching with amazement at the skill and always watching every behind-the-scenes footage I could, I knew that I wanted to be involved. Then as I got a bit older games entered the picture, something I could play by myself as an only child and get lost in another world.
Because computer game technology, aesthetics and narratives have been a driving force behind my creativity and mental wellbeing since I was a child. It's been a long and hard process getting here and I'm in my final year of my masters, continuing to work hard and fight through mental illness to achieve something I have always wanted to, to use it to my advantage and help others through the same hardships to follow their passion and show my own greatness and bring other people inspiration.
