Vinh Nguyen is a graduate student studying the craft of 2D animation. He primarily works with digital mediums with a focus on 2D animation. Aside from his art, he has had poetry published in school magazines such as Monroe Community College’s “Cabbages and Kings”.
Born in Rochester, NY, Nguyen’s childhood was filled with anime in which he formed a deep passion for. There is a bridge between high intense battles and tender story beats within anime that Nguyen strives to achieve. This was reflected in his ability to play with comics as an initial medium which, currently, has evolved into animation.
Nguyen received his BS in Creative Writing at SUNY Brockport. Currently he is working towards his Masters of Fine Arts degree in Animation from the Rochester Institute of Technology in Rocheste
