after effects
Starting in 2016, I began learning Adobe After Effects and posting fan edits of my favorite media online. the videos I posted received 10k-40k views each on average with some exceeding 80k-100k views.While I've shifted my focus to learning web development and graphic design in college, I am still proficient in typography, motion graphics, and a basic user of Cinema4D.
graphic design
Graphic design is a skill I've recently learned and became passionate about after deciding to major in it. My work so far includes rebranding RICE Crew (University of Rochester dance crew) and creating promotional graphics and acting as the Director of Marketing and sole Graphic Designer for Are You Even Real? , a short film produced and filmed in Rochester.
