About
Alessia Minassian is a storyboard artist with a passion for visual storytelling and narrative art. Currently based out of San Francisco, CA, her skills have been cultivated throughout three years of study at Academy of Art University, and include training in 2D Animation, layout, character design, and story development. She also has foundations in life drawing, which inform the realism and life-like essence at the core of both her designs and stories. Her formal education is supplemented by independent learning and experience working on short films with local animation clubs, as well as on other collaborative projects such as the Academy of Art’s Studio X.
Alessia is a dedicated and hardworking artist who excels both independently and as part of a team. Her open mindedness and cooperation make her able to take direction and she looks forward to any opportunities to learn and collaborate with others. She would love to put her knowledge into practice at companies who share the goal of connecting audiences through telling stories that transcend the origins of their inspiration.
