- I have always had an artistic eye so producing art pieces and

developing my skills by taking art classes outside of my
degree and taking part in online tutorials has helped me to
do this. Also, in my free time outside of my degree I like to
improve on my animating skills in 2D and 3D by having
tutorials and finding/producing my own references in order to
do this.

- By watching anime and films and playing video games for

enjoyment, I am able to analyse particular aspects of them,
for example: the camera shots, angles, compositon, animation
or even the colour theory which helps to inspire my own work
and come up with ideas for future animations/stories or
drawings for the future.
