Madeline Brennan is a 3D Animator and Digital Illustrator that uses her knowledge of both traditional illustration techniques and 2D animation to create her work. 

​

Due to having learned 2D animation first, Brennan utilizes these techniques to animate a three-dimensional character in a two-dimensional space: making sure emotions, silhouettes, staging, and appeal are represented and felt in just a glance. She has also gone on to collaborate with many other hard-working artists as a 3D Character Animator, as well as having led teams as an Animation Lead in the SCAD Animation Studios productions: "The How Book" and "The Last Dungeon." During her final year at SCAD (Savannah College of Art & Design), she was not only Animation Lead and an Animator once again, but also served as the Art Director for the Senior Capstone Film: "Three Raccoons in a Trench Coat."

​

Within her illustrations, she uses bright colors to compliment the people, relationships, and emotions that she wants her audience to empathize with. She starts with a sketch, utilizing paper and pencil to begin her work, and will then transfer it to a digital platform to further her work along. This basis of traditional techniques is what pushes her digital media, whether it be Illustration or Animation.
