Designer Interview
20 April 2019
I've been creatively inclined ever since I could hold a crayon, where the canvas was the wall. This further matured into my current passion for animation, and illustration.
Design is about causing a positive change in the lives of those around us.
2D animation, Concept Design, Character art and more.
A board game cover illustration.
Definitely the digital media. Using a graphics tablet and a raster software to illustrate.
When I've had a good cup of coffee, and I'm in my work space, things fall into place.
Since I'm pursuing animation, it's definitely the impact my product has on it's viewer. What sort of feeling I want to evoke, etc.
Excitement initially, which is then followed up by determination.
Reassured, and content.
If it's able to change ones perception, mood, towards something, I feel it's done well.
If its achieved it's main purpose. Then secondly, the presentation and over all appeal.
To help make peoples lives better, through saving time, providing visual treats, or others.
I have never held or been in an exhibition.
Inspiration can come from anything, anywhere. I mostly however, pick up on elements from various social medias, as they are brimming with fresh new content.
I live in India, and I do feel for certain pieces I have done, that it has affected the way I've drawn certain things.
I usually go online on job websites such as freelancer and through them, discover people to work with.
Through a well rounded portfolio.
