EMILY MUNRO is a Melbourne-based Australian illustrator, specialising in visual development and character design for the animation industry. Since childhood she has been passionate about cartoons and storytelling, admiring the way that the details of a design - such as a character’s gesture, their shape language, or the rendering technique - tell a story of their own. She has supplemented fifteen years’ experience of learning as a digital artist with a Diploma in Screen and Media from Swinburne University and a Diploma in Visual Arts from Melbourne Polytechnic.
One of the biggest inspirations for her design work is Nineties Japanese animation, such as Neon Genesis Evangelion, Akira, and the works of Satoshi Kon. From these, she takes a focus on semi-realistic anatomy, simplistic colour palettes featuring bold reds and muted browns, and straightforward shading techniques, allowing a character’s personality to shine through without being overwhelmed by busy or complex design.
