@bridgetolson
Creative artist specializing in 3D animation and visual design.
What I'm looking for
As a passionate artist with a Bachelor of Creative Technologies from Virginia Tech, I have honed my skills in 3D animation, graphic design, and visual storytelling. My journey began in 2014 as a freelance artist, where I successfully collaborated with over 400 clients, creating diverse visuals ranging from music videos to intricate animations and illustrations. My commitment to quality and creativity has allowed me to launch multiple successful Kickstarter campaigns for my original enamel pins and stickers.
Currently, I am an artist at Mirror Touch Media, where I contribute to an NDA project by creating captivating 3D animations and graphics. Previously, I worked at Serenity Forge, where I played a key role in developing art for popular games such as Doki Doki Literature Club Plus and Death's Gambit: Afterlife. My experience also includes an internship at Serenity Forge, where I focused on 3D modeling and concept art. I have been recognized for my work through various awards and features, including being highlighted on Adobe's Instagram Story and Virginia Tech's Student Arts Spotlight.
