My name is Anna Apostolopoulos and I'm a Junior at the University of Colorado Denver in their College of Arts and Media Digital Animation Center. At a young age, I had fallen in love with writing stories and creating characters with toys, and writing them into notebooks. After enrolling in Warren Tech's Graphic Design department, I realized that you can visually illustrate characters and stories, opening up a new path for me into the technical and creative field of 3D Graphics and Animation as well as Film Production. In this way, I can bring my small conceptions to life in a way that can transport others to a reality outside of the recognizable life they live and bring as much emotion to those around me that my own stories and stories inspired me growing up. I really enjoy the conception and creation of worlds and stories, bringing them to life from scratch or solidifying the vision of a story waiting to be told.
