About Me
Hello! My name is Raquel and I am an artist looking for for new opportunities and stepping into my journey in the animation industry. I studied animation at CSUF where I learned animating, storyboarding, character design, and illustration, while working with a variety of mediums, traditional and digital. There, I was passionate about experiencing all aspects of the animation pipeline and fundamentals, while expressing my creativity and ultimately making my own short film.
After graduating I spent time at home raising my new baby boy Logan! Soon after I would get to help my friend in creating short films tailored to personal client stories, ranging from marriage stories to well-known Youtube personalities' bios. I also had the chance to write and illustrate comic books, and creating illustrations for social media marketing. Though as all good things come to an end, I continued to focus on my son, and working as a freelance artist as a way to sharpen and grow my skills.
Now, I am looking to fulfill my dream of working in TV/Film. I would love to connect with anyone, especially artists who are mothers that can teach me how to tell the difference between coffee cups, sippy cups, and paint rinsing cups!
