Being on top of the evolving technology and software in the Motion Graphics industry is key to closing the gap between information and consumer. The discovery of newer and intuitive methods is what pushes the industry forward. When I find a new solution, it develops a deeper understanding of the tools I use to close the creative gap. With the immense amount of information that is given to us on a day-to-day basis, creating a visual representation of this information is where I can connect with my audience. Using kinetic type, video, and 3D models I can portray the information in a creative way.
