John Mompoint

BFA ’20 Animation and Interactive Design

I was born in New York Long Island. I moved to North Carolina when I was ten years old. I loved to do art and draw. I enjoy sports, going to Church, and the outdoors when I am not at work and drawing. I also have a passion for filmmaking and enjoy being around my family.

When I create, I bring my values and unique experiences of life into my artwork. I focus on setting a mood in my work through colors and character design. I often focus on bright colors to convey a fun and playful atmosphere. These bright colors are a symbol of how I feel about my childhood and how animation and films impacted my life. I hope to pay it forward by bringing joy to other people through my artwork.
