Hi! I am Angelica Matarazo and I am a student completing my Communication Design at Swinburne University of Technology, Hawthorn. During the Years 11 and 12, I completed a 2 year VET Course Screen and Media (Creative and Digital Media) at IMVC, during this Course my Adobe illustrator and Photoshop skills were improved and my drawing skills creating free hand drawn illustrations was a feature during the Course which my Trainer was impressed by the detail of my illustrations. This Course provided me with the foundation of skills to embark into Graphic Design at Swinburne. Now at Swinburne, I completed my Diploma of Graphic Design, Advanced Diploma of Graphic Design and Bachelor of Communication Design. My knowledge and skills have matured as a designer having exposure and experience in embarking on many different projects and the use of different Software Apps, tools and techniques skills on Adobe apps, InDesign, XD, Dreamweaver and Acrobat.
My personal passions, I am interested in Animal Welfare, Environmental, Sustainabily, Social Issues and Pop Culture. These areas of interests also connect with my design skills and potential career in design, they would allow me to create designs, illustrations, typography and photography. Producing impacting, engaging, interactive graphic design work whether it is for digital or for print. Raising Awareness in relation to their issues, animal welfare, environment and social issues. Pop Culture I have followers on Social Media, these designers and artists also have their own Freelance Business and have visited them at the Convention Centres. This is also something that inspires me and it is one path I am thinking of when I set up my own Freelance Graphic Design Business.
