My name is Casey, and I am an Atlanta-based illustrator and designer! I spent several years as a background designer for Bento Box Entertainment, creating fully-illustrated backgrounds and props for animated shows and movies that are now airing! I also have several years' experience in the gaming sphere, where I worked to create in-game assets, UI elements, and marketing materials for a handful of mobile and VR games. Most recently I've been working as a graphic designer in marketing and social media, as well as illustrating storybooks for children and adults. All of this work can be found on my website, and I urge you to take a look! All of these projects have been extremely varied in their styles, and I've been able to immediately adapt to each project to match the director and/or writer's vision.

I'm very comfortable in Toon Boom Harmony, Canva, Microsoft Office, and various other software. --- **Employment and project experience** **Background Designer** Bento Box Entertainment _January 2021 - June 2022_ **Head of Graphic Design** SuperMassive _June 2023 - present_ **Lead Designer & Illustrator** Thrust Interactive _August 2019 - December 2020_

    To round out my time spent at the University of Georgia, I chose to create a three-minute music video - drawn and animated by myself.

    uniE621 Southern Gothic Musical | Woods
    I am creating illustrations for the band Delta Rae for their in-the-works Southern Gothic Musical. These images are being used in pitch decks and first-look promotional materials, as well as an upcoming graphic novel based on the story. After being given access to these songs and character descriptions, I sketch and paint full illustrations of scenes in the musical, largely inspired by the shadow-puppet-y animated storybook style used in the seventh Harry Potter film.
