I am Anthony Marriott. I’m an illustrator and 2D animator for storytelling, interesting designs, and concepts. I’m zealous for illustrating comics, and animating 2D stories. I hope to be a successful freelance comic artist independently and a reliable 2D animator both independently and collaboratively.
My illustrative inspirations come from certain Shonin anime, mangaka, and manhwa’s alike, as well as the art styles of other independent artists. To develop my adaptive art styles, I imitate and stylise inspired styles, which helps for collaborations and bringing a variety of styles to my capabilities. My animation workstyle is influenced by individual animators and editors and executed in a manner that compliments my form of workflow.
I mostly enjoy 2D animating varying between dynamic movement to lip syncs. I’m very efficient in time keeping and I open to criticism to enhance the animations in process. I also enjoy illustrating large story ideas and even more so coming up with various character designs with backstories.
My final major project, The Fruit of Self, tells a personal story of the relationship struggles and self-acceptance of my main character Matthew. It delves into the imaginative thinking and how scary but worthwhile it can be to find self-acceptance.
