Hey, I’m Blayne
I’m a fourth-year Digital Media Studies student at the University of Rochester in Upstate New York, with a deep passion for photography and animation. My work revolves around capturing environments and exploring movement—whether through still images or animated sequences. I love experimenting with different ways to convey color, depth, and exaggeration, drawing inspiration from the bold visual storytelling of companies like Pixar, DreamWorks and Studio Ghibli, whose soft tones and hyperbolic stylizations have shaped much of my approach.
In animation, I’m still relatively early in my journey, but I’ve already spent a year exploring modeling and rigging techniques in Blender.
I’m always pushing myself to experiment and explore new ideas. Whether it’s through the lens of a camera or the frame of an animated scene, I strive to tell stories that feel vibrant, dynamic, and full of life.
