My name is Sophie Bosson Waldron. I earned a First Class Honours BA in Digital Media Design. I work well using the skills I have developed, both socially and academically. I am confident with customers, fellow colleagues and organisation, I am highly motivated and a fast learner, managing my time effectively in order to complete tasks to a high standard. Inspired by animated works from Vivienne Medrano and Ashley Nichols, I decided to learn about animation. I joined the University of Brighton Digital Media Design course at East Sussex College Lewes in fall of 2019 and earned a 1st with Honors in June 2022. I have skills in graphic design and web design from my course, a strong confidence with 2D drawing animation, and a growing interest in 3D modelling, rigging and animation in my own time. I draw my own original illustrations and have created a following across multiple social media platforms. In 2019, I was commissioned to illustrate and character design for the children's book The Little Red Hat (2020) by Bennett Cros sley. My ultimate aspiration is to become an animator, with skills to create both 2D and 3D animation.…
