About:
My name is Iman Gadalla and I am a current character designer and concept artist based in Atlanta, Georgia.
My biggest passion lies in Character Design. I believe that a story that is character-driven is the key to creating media audiences can feel with and be moved by. Character IS story to me, and make stories that last with us for lifetimes.
I am originally from Alexandria, Egypt, and moved to the United States when I was 8 years old. This experience, along with my dual identity, has inspired much of my work, and an experience many immigrant children can empathize with, that should and can be explored more with Animation.
Some fun facts about me are that I am an avid comic book collector and a HUGE fan of history trivia. When I am not drawing, I enjoy spending time with the people I love cracking jokes, playing soccer, running up large mountains, exploring new places, and playing with my silly cat, Tigger!
