LIVIA HARDING

CONCEPT ARTIST

Hey there! I'm Liv, a creative background, character and visual development artist living in Brisbane, Australia. I'm currently in my final year of animation at Griffith Film School, working on my grad film 'Connect the Dots'. I love developing stories and art for children in a way everybody can enjoy :)
Besides drawing, I enjoy nature photography & gaming in my free time.

Connect the Dots

When her friends suddenly disappear, a shy little cockroach named Dot journeys across the garden and discovers that sharing her art is worth it, even if she isn’t ready to show it yet.

'Connect the Dots' is a 3 minute grad slate film from my final year at Griffith Film School. The original pitch was created by me and some friends, and I worked as a general concept designer, handling both character and environment design. My main accomplishment was translating our unique, collaged style from the initial pitch onto the big screen, while keeping it clear and readable.

Character work

Port of Myths

I was a background artist & painter for a university project 'Port of Myths' - a set of comedic workplace health&safety animations commissioned by a client company.
I was in charge of designing the main breakroom location, which was a key background in all episodes. Despite the corporate artstyle, it was a lot of fun adding small bits of character into the background. All assets were drawn with Photoshop.
