This includes, working as part of team, being a hard-worker and making sure that I am organised and always performing to the best of my ability in order to fulfil the needs and requirements of a company or client. - My hobbies and interests mainly consist of drawing, creative writing, reading books/manga, watching films/anime, playing video games and animating. - 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. - Further inspiration I gain is threw industry talks and attend- ing events such as the London Comic Con every year.
