Sophie Gates
BA (Hons) Animation
I am an animator and artist working primarily in backgrounds and concept art. Throughout my degree, I have expanded my knowledge and gained experience, both in a creative and professional setting. I work predominantly in digital but can also work with traditional mediums, such as acrylic, clay, pen and paper etc. I am confident in the Adobe Creative Suite and can pick up new software and skills quickly.
I am easily able to take a leadership role, such as my role as student representative, as well as a team player, like in my second year film, allowing me to thrive anywhere in a group setting. I am passionate about both fitness and volunteering, I keep myself busy with participating in a competitive roller derby team, having weekly visits to a local primary school to assist children with their reading, and taking part in fitness based community outreach program.
