About

Melissa is a 2D artist who dreams of bringing the many characters in her head to life on the big screen! Or the small screen. Or even a phone screen. She's not picky. With a degree in 3D Animation and CGI, she's got a well-rounded understanding of both 2D and 3D art. In addition to her day job, she typically has her fingers in all sorts of creative pies, and is currently working on a short film with a group of like-minded friends. She is fond of all things geeky, such as video games, cartoon shows and table top roleplaying.
