Artist Statement

My work consists of entertainment that admires everyday life through a lens of animation and real life that people can identify with. These scenes captured will reflect a humorous point of view that will lighten an audience. This will guide the audience towards a virtual world that separates them from fear of the real world. Furthermore, I will focus on animation and video games to create a genre that will imitate cartoons, such as bringing a character from a video game to life and having him describe his perspective of what it is like to be in a video game. Combining animation and vlogging will be an interesting approach to ultimately create a unique type of media. Youtube has been a huge influence towards my work where there are thousands of different creative content that change how people see the world. Watching people play and commentate over video games has influenced me in wanting to create similar content and portray my own version. Video games have been a huge part of my life where I have dedicated hours to playing and researching how to play a game more efficiently. To continue playing, I have decided to take a productive aspect such as recording gameplay with a face cam that reveals reactions towards the game and posting it on platforms such as Instagram and YouTube. Eventually, I will upload my content throughout social media platforms that will reach more people and a new audience. Reaction to my content in between platforms will also influence new ideas in working with video game animation and film.
