Hi there, I’m Deanna!
I’m a Computer Animator and a recent graduate from Ringling College of Art + Design. I’m passionate about creating memorable stories and bringing them to life through the CG film pipeline. I was born and raised in Rhode Island, and studied at college in Sarasota, FL for 4 years.
Outside of animation and digital art, I love traveling and exploring! My most recent trip was to San Francisco to visit some friends. One day I hope to travel to Europe or Japan! I also indulge in my fair share of video games, some examples include Overwatch, League of Legends, and Marvel Rivals. Another hobby of mine is collecting, ranging from Pokémon TCG cards, to collectibles of my favorite film/TV/video game characters. I also enjoy making video content just for fun! My boyfriend and I currently run a vlog channel on YouTube where we can create a digital video log of events we attend and highlight our travels together.
Back to animation, I have real-world and classroom experience working on Character Animation. From hand-keyed animation to motion-capture clean-up (and mo-cap performing!) I love working with emotional scenes and facial animation.
My CG experience includes:
- 3D Character Animator, InMotion Systems LLC (2024-present)
- Animator (Freelance), CareerLeader LLC (2024-present)
- Animator (Freelance), Influenceable (2024)
- Gameplay Animator (Intern), Monolith Productions (WB Games) (2023)
- 3D Character Animator (Intern), InMotion Systems LLC (2022)
- 3D Modeler/Concept Artist (Intern), Galladoria Games (2021)
I have also collaborated with Ringling College Film students on their projects, including a few of their thesis films!
