BIO
Danielle is an Iowa-based artist, whose anime works focus on relationship dynamics and the past. Danielle would like to collaborate with gamers in bringing her anime works into accessible gaming. "I have been creating for 11 years. I am living with blindness, but I can do anything anyone else can. What inspires me to create depends on my mood. Anime artists are my favorite artists."
What inspires you to create?
"It all depends on my mood. If I am in a negative mood, I don't create."
Do you have a favorite musician and do you have a favorite artist?
"Eddy Rath is my favorite musician. My favorite artists are anime artists and right now I am reading Naruto."
What is your favorite game and if you could have any anime super power what would it be?
"Pokemon go is my favorite game and I would be a ninja, because you have so many strengths."
What is standing in your way of creating accessible anime gaming?
"The funding would be the hardest part and I know it is expensive to develop games these days. It would come down to funding. The Pokémon Go company is a company I really want to work with and Numinous Games at Mainframe."
What is special to you about exhibiting in a gallery and working in an art studio?
"I have never exhibited in a gallery before and never been in a studio before now. I like Mainframe."
