MOTION GRAPHICS PORTFOLIO
The following is an abridged view of my motion graphics work. If you’d like to see my non-motion graphic design work, you can do that here!
Markee, 2022
An introductory explainer video for Markee, a telehealth startup. I storyboarded and animated the spot based on a provided script. Characters were designed to conform to an art style the client had developed with a previous designer.
IncNow, 2020
An animated explainer video for IncNow, detailing aspects of LLC creation. I was responsible for all of the design and animation, the former having gone through several iterations before we hit upon the right look for the client.
DuckDuckGo: “Nothing to Hide”, 2019
“Nothing to Hide” was the second installment of a four part internet privacy awareness campaign for DuckDuckGo. The task was to create an animation that showed how Google and Facebook invade their users’ privacy, through the metaphor of lab scientists experimenting on “the little guy”. I storyboarded, designed and animated all of the characters and set pieces, and at times contributed alternative directorial concepts to best facilitate the client’s needs. This piece uses an extensive amount of puppet-pinning and 2.5 D manipulation to achieve its effect.
Comet Financial, 2018
This piece, produced for Comet Financial, required a short turnaround of one week. I was responsible for developing the visual style of all sections featuring the “student” character, as well as animating said sections.
Chemours Safety 360° Series, 2018
This four-part series for the Chemours company was developed to address basic safety concerns in a variety of workplace-adjacent circumstances. I was asked to create vibrant but clean-looking animated sequences to wrap around live action monologues by the Chemours CEO. After mocking up a few style variants, a cutout look was settled on. “Introduction” and “Opioid” were directed by my supervisors at Short Order, but by the time “Roadways” and “Workplace” rolled around, I was given the opportunity to direct them myself, developing visuals based on the monologues alone.
Choose Delaware, 2018
This campaign ad for the Delaware Prosperity Partnership was meant to present a variety of incentives for living and working in DE. Using a combination of write-on effects and 2.5 D, I created a “living blueprint” look for the ad, where various elements appeared to be drawn and then animated to inhabit the state.
Equal Votes, 2017
Produced for Lawrence Lessig and Equal Citizens, this spot centered on electoral reform, and required me to create wraparound animations for Lessig’s monologue. I used a muted color palette of red, blue, and black to evoke the American political system, and created sequences meant to reflect the seriousness of the subject matter while still retaining some animated vitality.
