I am a 20 year old student at Drexel University in Philadelphia, PA.
I have been an artist for as long as I can remember. So naturally, my love for 3D art starts when I was a kid, but it wasn't an enjoyable introduction. When I was 7 I was diagnosed with cancer of the tissue, and what got me through that was watching movies. I watched so many movies during my stays, you'd need a small family to be able to count it.
So my appreciation of movies started young, but I was always told that animation was hard and expensive. But then in 2020 when lockdown happened, I stumbled across a program called Blender. And I spent the first months of lockdown sat behind a slow laptop trying to make my first ever visual effects shot; and I did! So in that moment I decided I wanted to go to art school and peruse a degree in animation and visual effects!
