I’m Daphne Hsu, a recent 2D animation graduate from Pratt Institute, with a minor in Literature and Writing. I am interested in illustration, graphic design, and video editing positions . With my degree, my work focuses on illustration and storytelling, as well as ways to bring the two together. With a background in traditional painting, my work now is mainly digital illustration, but draws back to my roots in its impressionistic, painterly style. I am proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, specifically Photoshop, InDesign, AfterEffects, and Premiere, as well as 2D animation software such as ToonBoom Harmony.
