About Me.
Hello, my name is Kristina Szalai and I love to create digital content. When it comes to work in 3D I enjoy every step but I am particularly interested in modeling. I also enjoy doing video editing and photo touch up. As a hobby I also do digital artwork to practice creating characters with unique looks or designs.
My passion for making digital content goes all the way to when I was 10 years old. I was making little flip book animations out of sticky-notes and eventually found a program called pivot where I learned how to animation on a computer with simple 2D stick figures. One day I found a program called Flipnote and from there I learned how to animate freely by hand and improve my overall drawing skills. In high school I picked up various Adobe products and just played around with them and used tutorials to learn how to use them. At that point I decided all I wanted to do was create digital content and went to college to learn more and earn a degree. While in college I was introduced to the 3D side of digital content and fell in love with it. EDUCATION
