Junior Mejias
Visual Development Artist & Illustrator
I am a New York City-based artist specializing in building immersive worlds and expressive characters for narrative-driven projects. With a six-year background as a professional illustrator and tattoo artist, I have developed a disciplined approach to anatomical precision, structural integrity, and clear visual communication. My professional history in the high-stakes NYC studio environment has taught me the value of technical accuracy and the importance of a "production-ready" mindset.
My work bridges the gap between blue-sky imagination and functional design. Whether I am concepting modular mechanical props, drafting environment callouts for world-building, or exploring character performance through expression sheets, my goal is to provide clear blueprints that empower the entire pipeline. I thrive in the iterative process, utilizing rapid ideation and sketching to find the most compelling visual solutions for a story.
Beyond design for the screen,I have a deep history in independent publishing. I successfully managed the full production pipeline for the Onslaught comic series, taking the project from initial concept and script to a 24-hour Kickstarter funding success. I am eager to bring this professional maturity and my passion for storytelling to a collaborative studio environment.
