Vittoria S. – Designer

Passionate, open-minded illustrator specializing in young adult and kids lit. Working with me includes professionalism and a bit of magic.

Overview

Hello, I'm Vittoria, an illustrator freshly graduated in Visual Arts from Italy, currently specializing in graphic design and 2D animation.

I have a small bit of experience as a freelance artist during my student period, I've illustrated song covers for a few musicians and I directed the school magazine in my graduation year.

My goal is to bring your magical stories for kids and young adults to life.

If you review my portfolio samples you'll see a variety of works and styles, thanks to the lovely eye-catching pastel colors and the silly faces of my characters, it will be easier to fall in love at first sight with the author's story, hoping to nourish positivity and creativity to the readers.

Knowing the level of design you want, your budget, resources, deadline and limits is critical to know so I can provide you an accurate estimate for your publishing project. The general rule of thumb is a larger budget and longer deadline can provide more complex cover concept samples, while shorter deadlines and a more conservative budget will limit concept and complexity. I'm versatile, professional, meticulous and look forward to working with you!

In my role as a Model Pack Artist, I've contributed to an ongoing TV series by creating detailed "turnarounds" of characters. My primary responsibility is to provide a comprehensive visual guide for the animation team, ensuring consistency and precision in anatomical and stylistic details. My work plays a key role in shaping the visual appearance of characters, thus contributing to the overall success of the television production.

ACCA Academy

Feb, 2023 — Mar, 2023 (23 days)
I had the privilege of collaborating with my fellow colleagues at my Academy on the school's annual magazine, which explores a unique theme each year. In 2023, the chosen theme was "Alive Tattoos," inviting all students to contribute illustrations reflecting their interpretations of this captivating subject. I was entrusted with the role of creating the cover illustration, and for this, I opted to seamlessly blend 3D modeled characters with intricately sketched 2D tattoos
