My imagination is always running
wild. Ever since I was a child I saw things on television, video games, and
movies that would leave me asking questions like, “how did they do that, or
“how can I make that?” When I found out about graphic design I was instantly
hooked. The ability to fuse art and technology is what draws me to it the most.
I often find myself obtaining creativity from the things I see on a daily basis.
I enjoy looking at other artist works for inspiration, such as Avatar the science fiction film
directed, written, and produced by James Cameron.
What I hope to portray in my
artwork is excitement. I sometimes research what society is watching and pay
close attention to how they rate these several genres of work. From what I have
studied, some genres of film, for example Horror, is losing luster. I feel as though I can contribute to the revival of such a
genre by implementing several techniques that have worked in the past along
with new techniques that I can bring to the table. And that is why I chose Media Studies as my
major, I hope to refine my skills as an artist in order to implement the ideas in my head and bring them to life.
I do not want to become limited to
one type of artwork. I want to be able to broaden my horizons so that I can
work in multiple fields. Being able to work in film, animation, and even music,
would be a dream come true. Like the saying goes, find something you love to do and you won't work a day in your life.
