About Me
Personal Profile

My name is Gina Gonsalves, I am a recent graduate of the USC School of Cinematic Arts in Los Angeles, CA. I received my Master of Fine Arts degree in Animation and Digital Media and am beginning my journey to working on animated feature films.
I was born and raised in Stockton, California and attended Sacramento State University. After receiving my Bachelor's degree in New Media-Studio Art, I was accepted into USC's graduate animation program. I have a strong background in traditional drawing, CG modeling and animation. I love the entire animation process, from visual development to post-production, and I am excited to join the industry.
