I enjoy the process of developing concepts and ideas into completed versions ready for the final stages of the animation production. Pre-production allows you the most creative liberty and input in terms of developing the story and characters, which is why I like it more than production or post production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Growing up, there were not a lot of characters on television that were representative of me as a latina or as a diabetic, and even when there were they were often inaccurate. There was also a huge lack of involvement within the plots of more serious issues and topics that I was constantly aware of and or faced with. Which is why I actively involve diversity within my own projects and I try to create work that is in some way or form representative of the world that we live in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Shows like \u201cStatic Shock\u201d, \u201cThe Proud Family\u201d, \u201cHey Arnold\u201d, and \u201cXiaolin Showdown\u201d were very impactful on me and helped in shaping my early views for the types of content I wanted to create. I want my work to be interesting, and entertaining but also insightful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Career wise I\u2019d like to either work freelance or contracted full time with a studio and help with pre-production on animated projects. Eventually after gaining more experience I would like to open up my own studio. Just so that I could have more control and input over the types of projects being produced. <br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am an animation major with a focus on pre-production.
