Katherine Hood

Expertise: After Effects, Animate CC, Photoshop, Premiere
Katie Hood is a junior majoring in Animation and Digital Arts at USC's School of Cinematic Arts. Her interest in digital media lies in the knowledge that she'll be using some of these softwares for the rest of her life—yay digital animation! Katie started learning digital tools while in high school, and she has since gained experience in After Effects, Photoshop, Premier, Flash, and most recently, Animate. Her favorite thing she’s ever created is a five minute animation about not wanting to do animation homework. Katie stays creative by taking her sketchbook everywhere, writing down inspiration when it hits, and prioritizing time toward working on what she loves. Her dream job is an animated TV Director, as she loves working with people, synthesizing ideas, and figuring out how to craft a really great visual story. Acceptable alternative: Corgi-Riding Viking Princess.
