    uniE621 Magic Map, Character Design, Landing page Illustration
    The brief was to create Magic Map showing coach/client journey illustration for an interactive website landing page. The overall concept is an interactive map. The viewer will listen to an audio clip at each stop along the map. Therefore, I had to design ten different scenarios for each stop, develop the characters in various situations and illustrate a scenic volcano island in the background. #illustrator…
    uniE608 Compass of Synchronicity
    This project was an amazing and inspiring collaboration with Todd Fink. Todd is an artist, speaker, host of the Kind Mind podcast and co-founder of The Giving Tree Band. The brief was to animate the poem by Todd on how we can excuse ourselves from "the cult of busyness, the myth of urgency and the illusion of control", stepping away from the noise and connecting with nature. Since we are constantly bombarded with information and visuals every time we connect with media, I decided to take advantage of space and time to slow imagery down for this project. And allow the viewer to enjoy the poem and the music where illustrations support the context rather than overwhelm. We have become a fast-paced society which is always on the go. Sometimes we even forget who we truly are and remember that we can stop time and the world around us and immerse in nature, which always awaits you when you need this moment. #explainervideo #animator…
