Motion Graphic Templates for Rambler Report
For TheLucNews‘ rebrand and transition into social media, I led the creation and implementation of new motion graphic templates, intros and transitions, all consistent with the newly designed Rambler Report brand.
With versatility, customizability and ease of use at top of mind, I designed and animated these motion graphics using key framing and expressions on Adobe After Effects, ultimately making them into templates with the Essential Graphics Panel.
Once created, I collaborated with the journalists working on the show to straighten out kinks, as well as guide them on how to make best use of these templates on Adobe Premiere Pro and enhance their stories.
Break Room TV GIFs for United Airlines
United invited us to get a taste of their operations first-hand at O’Hare International Airport. GIFs can’t be published due to confidentiality.
The Brief: Create five GIFs for United Airlines’ airport break rooms that showcase correct safety practices for under-the-wing staff, as well as care for their well-being. All visuals were to follow United’s brand guidelines and fall within their larger “Safety I Own It” campaign.
The Execution: In collaboration with PR/Media Coordinator Allison Lyon, I designed each GIF using Adobe Illustrator and animated them with a combination of stop-motion on Adobe Photoshop, as well as key-framing on Adobe Premiere Pro.
