I made six 10 to 15-minute animated videos for The New Children's Museum to take children and families on virtual tours of the Museum's interactive installations. The series is called All About Art and is lead by the Museum's mascots I created, Art (the songbird) and Play (the fox). Each installation is a unique exploration of the Museum and each story ties specifically to the meaning of the installation it features.

ROLE

Animator

Graphic Designer

I worked with The New Children's Museum's artist-in-residence and Exhibitions team to design short animated videos for Mass Creativity. Mass Creativity is an artist-led community outreach program that involves the community to help provide inspiration for a new art installation in the Museum created by an artist-in-residence. The character design and video content was created by the artist-in-residence, Panca and I supported Panca by turning her characters into graphics and animating the videos. To further engage the community, I created Snap Chat filters to allow children and families to bring the characters to life.

I supported clients like the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Naval Medical Center San Diego (NMCSD) with creating resources for their staff to help ensure secure communication practices and help improve patient/resident care. I designed training videos and toolkit graphics for staff to use, as well as lead user testing for a new application being designed and adopted.

Volunteer

During the COVID pandemic, I collaborated with an elementary school to help make their virtual Field Day more engaging. I animated their school mascot, Mr. Bulldog, so he could guide kids through each activity and I created a Snap Chat filter so students could communicate using as Mr. Bulldog throughout Field Day. Their video had roughly 1,000 views and received numerous compliments from students and their families.
