To better communicate my messages, I have started to employ animation as one valuable component in my creative practices. By incorporating subtle movement and music in some works, I wish to vitalize my illustrations.

MOTION
 

Adding movement to illustrative elements and text has been another avenue I have explored. On top of this visual experience, sound is an added element that I value to create a richer immersive experience. Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro are the two main software I use to create these works. 

GRAPHIC

Short animations in gifs and evergreen short looping movements have been executed through Adobe Photoshop and Procreate. These animations are designed to be used as digital emoticons and editorial moving illustrations.

3D

Blender, a 3D software, has opened a new digital dimension for me. It has enabled my characters, such as Anzu, to come to life. Through this software, I've experimented with different textures and expanded my design toolbox, which is particularly useful when developing mascots, brand identities, and opening sequences.
