Biography
Howdy!
My Name is Bri Ecklund and I'm a junior lighting artist from the small town of Madison Heights, Virginia. I graduated in 2020 from the School of Visual arts with a degree in 3D animation, and I've had the honor to work in several short films, as well as small freelance commercials and such. My goals include just growing my skills, and one day I would love to be a VFX supervisor or a lighting lead!
Outside of art I love cats, gaming, and baking bread!
