Art + Design: Animation + Game Arts
About Mya Labrecque
Mya Labrecque is an Animation & Game Arts major from Rhode Island. What drives her passion for digital art and animation is its ability to help convey a story in a way that may not be possible with other mediums.
Statement
For my Capstone, I chose to focus on a story that I had started writing years ago and have been slowly developing whenever I have free time. This has allowed me to finally settle on a plot line, and begin solely focusing on design. I used Maya to 3D model any environment art that was produced in order to get an understanding of the space. In some cases, this also allowed me to experiment with and gain an even better understanding of lighting and rendering. For character designs, I stuck to digital illustration, but have experimented with some 3D sculpting in ZBrush.
A lot of the work I’ve produced for this project has been experimental. However, since this is a passion project I plan to continue, I believe it is important to spend a good amount of time in preproduction. This is important in order to capture the world and the characters in a way that reflects my vision and makes sense to the story.
