About the Artist
Shaila Mohan-Deodat lives in Brooklyn, New York, and she is a freshman at Chelsea Career Technical Education High School. The Character Design program is her first CAW job. She has not had any previous art or multimedia experiences. Shaila chose to join the Character Design program because she was interested in learning about graphics and how to draw realistically. She also wanted to get paid. The best thing about her internship is the environment. She enjoys talking to peers, and the teachers are very interesting to talk to, as they are very knowledgeable on art and multimedia. She has learned how to gradually develop characters through shapes and anatomy. Shaila has made a few new friends, and she feels more confident as presenting her work enforces her to try to get accustomed to an active, engaging environment. Since she is taking this class with other students around her age, sharing similar experiences, she feels more connected to her community than she did before. She respects her teacher, Ms. Sophia, and she believes that she is a very talented and kind person, and she also enjoyed learning and listening to the guest speakers from Imagendary Studios. Shaila spends her free time reading, doing homework, and spending time with close family. She is good at creating stories, tae kwon do, and listening to others. What she loves most is listening to music and trying to cook. She enjoys talking about theories, history, and different opinions, and she spends most of her time thinking about food. Shaila is known for being intelligent, charismatic, and friendly. She will use her strong suits work efficiently and be successful.
