Motion Graphics Designer

I am a Senior Motion Designer working in After Effects and Cinema 4D with the Redshift Renderer. I have experience with much of the Adobe creative suite and a number of other tools for production and post production. I believe my broad production and technology background focused on 2D and 3D motion design make me an ideal candidate for motion graphics and mograph hybrid roles. Additionally I feel my experience with multiple disciplines within media production and my years of experience working with brands like Intel, Redhat, Starbucks, Wavecel and Mentor Graphics gives me a unique perspective on the way technology tells stories and gets its stories told. I have been interested in and the resource for emerging tools, technology and methodology for most of my career. I am a quick study and I have played the role of Technical Director in addition to Motion Designer for most of the companies I have worked for and projects I have worked on. I have a thirst for knowledge and a particular interest in the places where Art collides with technology and sport. This has been an underlying focus of my work for some time and serves to keep the creative conversation around technology fresh. I have been the technology decoder ring for most of the teams I have worked with and nothing gives me greater satisfaction than first understanding and then helping bring to light the underlying narratives that hide in the complexity of technology and products rooted in technology.

At Concept Labs I worked with a talented team to create marketing content and digital collectibles in support of the UFC Strike product in the web3 space. I learned a ton in my time at Concept Labs and was very inspired by this exciting world. I continue to work with Concept Labs on a contract basis.

I worked with and led teams in the execution of Motion graphics, Video Production and Campaign execution for clients such as Intel, Red Hat, Mentor Graphics and others.While at Drive I worked as the Senior Motion Designer and Technical Designer.

As Creative director I oversaw the creation of all content for digital signage and digital out of home advertising clients. I pitched concepts directly to clients and then directed a team in production of the concepts. I regularly went on site to oversee content and hardware deployment. Clients included Starbucks, Haier, Giraffas and Brightsign.

As a motion designer I used After Effects and Cinema 4D to create animations under the guidance of the Creative director. I worked closely with a team of five other animators for clients including Les Schwab and Phillips.
