Artist Statement and Letter of Intent Drafts

Artist Statement

There are many things that people do on a regular basis without realizing it. One such thing is filtering. Filtering is not just a function used in a photo app. It is a concept that can be applied to everyday activities. Some examples of filtering are how we filter out who we talk to, what media we are exposed to, and even how other people see us.

My goal with my work is to examine places where filtering occurs through both static and animated 2D pieces. I am looking at the limitations and lack of awareness that can come from the act of filtering.

Letter of Intent

Dear Wizards of the Coast team,

My name is Jasmine Angelo. I am contacting you to put myself up for consideration in either your game development or creative departments. Having studied elements of storytelling and narrative-driven imagery, I am interested and even excited to potentially get the opportunity to work with the people who develop content for games such as Dungeons and Dragons and Magic the Gathering.

With my graduation from the Digital Media and Animation baccalaureate program at Alfred State SUNY College of Technology, I have knowledge on working in a cooperative environment with free exchange of ideas and can therefore present concepts and ideas in an organized fashion. From previous positions in customer service, I have learned how to communicate in a respectful but serious manner.

I look forward to the chance to speak with you about my qualifications and about possibilities of working with you. Attached to this letter is my resume and a link to my digital portfolio. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at jmangelo99@yahoo.com. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Jasmine Angelo
