I'm a final year Concept Art student, studying at Leeds Arts University. I am looking for connections and any roles available in the creative fields of film or game development.

Biography

Hi! I'm a 3rd year Comic & Concept Art student, studying at Leeds Arts University in the UK. My main focus is concept art with a focus to work within the games and film/tv production industry. I have previously studied Animation & Games Design where I received a triple-distinction-star, this is where I discovered my love for concept art. Both of these courses have given me the digital and traditional skills to push my design capability to a standard I believe is ready to enter the industry; as I have invested the past 5 years of my life into developing myself for the industry. My goal is to be working in it within a year of my graduation. I have also produced assets for the development of an indie mobile game that reached #1 on the Google Play Store when it was titled 'Life Simulator 2017'. I am looking for any work opportunities available in the artistic fields of film or game development and I am also open to connect with anyone that is curious to learn more about myself and my work.
