Sonia - Intro

Hi All!

My name is Sonia Gaud Tiwari. I'm 24, married, born and brought up in India. This is my final year at the Academy. So far I focused on art direction and character design - my artwork is posted at Soniastic!

My love for storytelling began with my undergrad degree in Audio/Video Production. I consider Animation as an extension of my live-action and theater experience. All my artwork is strongly influenced by music.

Aside from school, I work for a charity production house called FLB Productions funnylittlebunny.com This year I'll be representing FLB at CTN Animation Expo in November (Los Angeles) - I hope to see you guys there too!

I want to be a director!! And I know, it will come after a lot of practice, experience and maturity - I'm prepared to work hard for it! now, I'll take Jeff's direction to improve my animation skills :)

I'm currently focusing on my thesis project. I'm done with my layouts and am starting animation alongside this class.

My aim for this class is to improve my character animation skills - which I can apply to my thesis and demoreel. Eventually, I intend to use animation to market and sell my music. I'm assuming that the animating-to-music assignment would be of specific help for me!

Below is a small compilation of my animation work so far. I'm missing a few clips which I will post later for feedback.

I look forward to learning from this group!
