ABOUT ME
Anne Sigismund
Game artist, illustrator
My name is Anne, I'm 34 , and I like to draw all kinds of things.
I am currently working as a 2D/3D games artist at Bird Island in Copenhagen and have mainly worked as concept and background artist for games and animation in Denmark, Brazil and Korea.
I worked as art director and concept artist on the game Spitkiss for Triple Topping games in 2017-2018 and finished my master's degree in Game Design and Development at KADK (the Royal Danish School of Design) in Copenhagen in 2018.
Before that I interned at Birdo studio in São Paulo, Brazil, and worked for Beach Park Studios in Fortaleza, doing design, layouts, BG's, and animation. I graduated from The Animation Workshop in Viborg, Denmark, with a bachelor degree in animation and CG arts in 2015.
I have travelled all kinds of places, more than 40 countries, and this is a big source of inspiration for me in my art. I have a great love for Africa and from my experiences working there, Korea and Brazil have also found a big place in my heart.

RESUMé
Structured and colorful draftsman with a positive disposition.
Based on my experience with other cultures, I am a skilful researcher and contribute with alternative takes on design. My work as an art director for Triple Topping games has given me confidence in my artistic choices and how to convey them to others, and I offer a strong sense of design and draftsmanship for illustration.
With experience as a designer and BG artist on three different continents, I am quick to adapt and meet new colleagues. As an extrovert, I thrive in creative collaboration with others, though I also dive deep into a task on my own. Having worked in small studios I understand the importance of information sharing and keeping deadlines.
