As a Concept Artist, I developed cinematic visualizations that unified the vision across multiple departments. This is a crucial step when working with partially virtual sets. My concept art translated the -award winning- Production designer's vision into tangible images, ensuring everyone shared the same creative direction.

Compared to a basic SketchUp screenshot, these visuals communicated atmosphere, scale, and storytelling potential, helping creatives align.

Creature and Character Design

· 2020 -2025

Visual concept and 3D design exploration for campaigns.

Concept Visualization

Anthropomorphic creatures are more engaging to audiences because they blend familiar human traits with imaginative, non-human forms, making them both relatable and intriguing.

These characters often simplify complex human experiences, making them easier to understand and connect with.

Ultimately, I believe anthropomorphic creatures allow audiences to explore themes like identity and society from a fresh, often more accessible perspective.
