Hello!
My name is Tessa Carter, and I'm currently at San Jose State University pursuing a Bachelor degree in the Animation/Illustration program specializing in 3D Technical Animation and Technical Art. I am a proud member of the ShrunkenHeadman Club!
I adore delving into anatomy and creatures, figuring out how to make them work in the 3D space, from skeletal, to muscle, simulation, to their rigs! I love problems solving and creating new ways to make art pieces and animations.
Thank you for coming to see my work!
