An effective About Me section for a digital art, 3D modeling, and game design portfolio should introduce the creator, showcase their skills, and provide insight into their creative approach. Here are some key questions to answer:
Hi, I'm Annika Eggen. I'm a junior at Chapel Hill High School. I don't have any siblings so to make up for it having 6 cats and 1 dog. I work at a pizza place and I babysit as well. In my free time I like to hangout with friends, go shopping, tanning, watch movies or tv, and I just recently learned how to ski and I love it. I want to go to Eastern Carolina University and become a nurse. I like nursing alot because of the ROI and I can get a job right out of college and make good money. I don't really know what inspired me to take this class but I asked ChatGBT and they said this could be helpful for nursing or just healthcare. Hopefully it can give me some new set of skills. My philosophy for art and design is unclear I think that it is important to try things outside of your comfort zone, kind of like what Elle Woods did when she went to law school.
I do not know what my strongest skills are yet. I have no prior experience to this class what soever.
3. Projects & Experience
I have not really done any projects outside of this class that corlate to this class. But I did make a 3D shadow box Tardis from Dr. Who in ceramics class which was cool. I guess it can correlate to this cause it was 3D but it was not like an animation, just 3D.
I approach a new project by jotting down my ideas and then will research them to see how I can go about them. I have a research paper in my APUSH class and my topic is "How did Ronald Reagans rhetoric impact the media being produced during the Cold War". So I liked to take things I am interested and the what I liked and see if there is a way to combine them. What inspires my work is not really any artist or games; but my dad inspires me. He always tries to make me a better person and just like in his words "make me a person". He's annoying at times but he is probably the reason why I am who I am.
I don't have an long-term goals for this class. I hope I can pass it and do good, and maybe take some of the things I learned regardless of if it is part of actual 3D animation or not. Maybe it will help me with nursing or like building my house.
