Animation and Video

All of my animation work thus far was created for MEJO 589: Motion Graphics, a class as part of my major within the Hussman School of Journalism and Media. Assets were created using Adobe Illustrator and made to move using After Effects. All video work was filmed on a Samsung Galaxy smartphone and edited with Premiere Pro.

This final project was designed to showcase the skills I learned throughout the duration of the course. I experimented with music, sound and different visual effects to bring the story of this rocket and astronaut to life.

Although short, this may be my favorite animation created for my motion graphics class. I loved designing the scene with bright colors and experimenting with parenting, squash and stretch and puppeting.

For this animation project, students were tasked with recreating the title sequence of a movie. My partner and I chose to recreate the title sequence of "Elf" using a flat paper-cut style.

For my final video project in MEJO 121, Intro to Digital Storytelling, I highlighted Student-Made UNC, an entrepreneurship organization of which I am a part that provides the opportunity for students to start art-related businesses while in college.

For my first-ever video project, I profiled UNC-CH student Camden West and her work as a hobbyist painter. I would change many things about this project but have included it here to show how much I grew between my first and second projects.
