Melanie Otero 

Hiya! My name is Melanie (Melon) Otero, I am a Latina animator based in Los Angeles, currently in my final semester at California State University of Long Beach, pursuing a Bachelor's in Fine Arts in Animation. My passion lies between both 2D and 3D as well as stop-motion. My main focuses are animation, character design and visual development. I love combining traditional art with digital media, often incorporating D-I-Y elements to make my pieces feel nostalgic yet modern. My work explores comedic, absurdist, and thrilling themes, creating a unique and engaging experience for my viewers.
