Welcome to my showcase page! I’m Allison Teo, a senior animation student interested in digital illustration and 2D animation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love to tell stories through the work I create, especially ones about culture and diversity in both the modern world and fantastical settings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Freestyle has helped me improve my skills tenfold, and I’ve gained so much experiencing working on animations with a team, experimenting with professional software, and conveying personal narratives through my visual, written, and audio projects. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

My interests include designing characters and worldbuilding for my personal projects and playing\/analyzing video games. Video games in particular really spark my passion for creating, and I always love learning more about the process behind game development. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I will be studying sociology at UCR in the fall. In the future, I hope to expand my love for art into something I can keep with me for life. Not necessarily working in the animation industry, but simply having an artistic interest as a longterm thing is something I’d like to to prioritize. Right now, I think working on visual development for personal work is my biggest passion project. I\u2019m excited to see where it will take me, especially with the skills and lessons I\u2019ve gained from Freestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MY PROJECTS<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Zenith Project<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For my Zenith project, I created a short 2D animated music video featuring my original characters and story. Making this kind of larger animation project has been a goal of mine for a really long time, and I\u2019m excited that I finally got the chance and resources to do so. I always loved watching animated music videos (or AMV\u2019s) on Youtube when I was first learning to animate, so conceptualizing one from my own imagination was a fun challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The video is based on a collaborative story my friend and I have been working on since we were in 7th grade. I wanted to explore our characters’ first interaction and the dynamic between them. The two of them are both self-assured in their abilities as fighters, so things would definitely get interesting if they were to get into a conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My full process for this project can be seen here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
