Beth Murcott
BA (Hons) Animation
My degree in BA Animation has taught me skills that will help my aspiring career as a storyboard artist and illustrator, such as giving me an insight into movement and the ways to effectively tell a story by understanding the audience. I am confident working with a range of software, including 2D programmes like Adobe Creative Cloud and Procreate, as well as 3D software such as Blender and Maya. My interest in storyboard art and narrative illustration derives from several artist’s work: the most influential ones being Joe Johnston’s storyboards for the Star Wars films, along with the comic book art of Sara Pichelli. I draw from artists like these and my interests in adventure and sci-fi genres to inspire my own work.
