Hello!
I’m Sarah, a creative professional and 3D artist focused on lighting, compositing, and visual storytelling. I love crafting visually compelling worlds- from building and refining assets to lighting and compositing the final frames that bring them to life.
I enjoy applying my 3D skillset across industries, blending technical problem-solving with a strong creative eye, and continually growing as an artist through collaboration and exploration.

Women in Animation at UT Dallas - Graphics
ABOUT
The Women in Animation at UT Dallas student chapter at UT Dallas shares the same purpose as our parent international organization- to support and promote the advancement of all underrepresented identities pursuing careers in the film industry.
WIA at its core is about equal representation. We envision a world where we all share equally in the creation, production, and rewards of animation, and provide resources and connections to make it happen.
The WIA Brand Kit
The WIA Brand Kit
To establish a sense of professionalism and promote brand awareness, I worked with our parent Women in Animation organization to establish a set of brand / style guidelines. With my graphic design officers, we studied and applied these guidelines to future marketing materials.

Physical Marketing Materials (posters, flyers, etc.)
It was important for me to incorporate a lot of beautifully painted digital art pieces during our first few weeks of launch, so that we had graphics that were targeted to and would be appreciated by other artists.

Digital Marketing Materials (Social Media posts, digital signage, etc.)
The biggest obstacle when creating digital marketing graphics was figuring out how to visually have our mission and message come across quickly before the viewer can scroll past our announcements. Furthermore, keeping these designs clean, to the point, but still aesthetically pleasing was essential.
This WIA Launch Digital Signage was displayed on mounted monitors across campus during the first few weeks of the new semester and was displayed in classrooms while I announced its launch, spoke about our mission/goals for the semester and how students could get involved.

HalloWIA Social
For our Halloween Social graphic, I wanted to make sure that a hierarchy of text would be established and that our text block was easily readable against a busier digital art piece.

Speaker Panel Q&A
We always knew we wanted to do a speaker panel with some artists in the industry, and were extremely excited to have these three lovely ladies share their insights and personal journeys navigating the industry.
