Visual Music
Currently taking a course on visualizing music, a huge inspiration for my work. This piece is a visual music work set to Sun Spat by EMEFE. More work from this class in for fun
VJ Work
Since music is one of my main inspirations, one of my biggest interests is creating visuals surrounding music. I have created visuals for Silver Factory in Brooklyn, NYC as well as Alys Beach in Florida.

drifting away from chaos
My second senior project, Drifting Away From Chaos, is a collection of visuals surrounding a fashion collection by designer Xueying (Sharon) Rui. This collection expresses the chaos and the quiet of the COVID-19 pandemic. I experimented with the TouchDesigner program to create visuals that merge her collection with technology and nature. These tech-driven visuals express the rigidness of society while the nature-like visuals express the chaos of the pandemic.
Imagery of fabric transformed into live visuals. Focused on their aesthetic connection to nature.
Feedback loop + displacement + slope and ramp/look-up to generate a distorted image or mov file with selected colors.

Other Experiments with TouchDesigner
Audio visual experiment based on Tabber's look at : vampire mix. I created this while experimenting with noise nodes and how to get a certain response to audio frequencies.
Psycho
Finishing up my film minor in Hong Kong was a great experience that resulted in this film 'Psycho'. A story of betrayal and the blindness of love.
Unfortunately due to COVID19, the finished product was not a final cut.

warrior nun show re-package
A repackage of Netflix original Warrior Nun. I chose this show because of its unique concept and creative beginnings - an original comic book series by Ben Dunn. I collaborated with Chris Rodriguez, a cinema 4D connoisseur who helped me bring the chaotic visuals to life.
Collaboration with Chris Rodriguez @_DaChris
By mixing a sense of renaissance art and chaotic graphic visuals, this concept juxtaposes the pristine beauty and
subtle eeriness of catholic iconography with the outrageousness of the original comic that the show is based on.
By cutting between shots of realistically rendered churches and religious figures, the concept will represent the
tone of the show, being dramatic and suspenseful without taking itself too seriously.

cities
Cities - A compilation of cities in my life. nov 19 hong kong
Right before the pandemic, I was studying abroad in Hong Kong. This video I made before knowing that we would have to go back to America halfway through our stay. Even though I was there for a short time, I learned a lot about my view on the world and the world's view on me. Hong Kong made me fall in love with cities and all the calm craziness they offer.This is a compilation of all the cities in my life (Boston, Amsterdam, Savannah, Hong Kong) and the people with me. Featuring a song by one of my favorite producers Code Kunst.
The devil may cry
The Devil May Cry is sung by Tabber, a musician under the record label you.will.knovv. The visuals and music created by you.will.knovv are some of my favorites among artists I follow. I created this teaser while trying to keep in mind the more analog and tactile feel of you.will.knovv. I also was inspired by the graphic design work of Yoshimaru Takahashi.
Spotify Logo Resolve
This project is a fun and simple logo resolve for Spotify. I planned to have a colorful world revealed after the play button is clicked. Little 'planets' represent the different types of listeners.
ON 스트릿
A personal project of rebranding MUSINSATV’s show On스트릿. ON 스트릿 (ON STREET) is a MUSINATV program, a popular shopping website and YouTube channel in South Korea.This program focuses on interviewing people on the streets of Seoul. This show features street interview of Seoul locals, talking about their fashion choices. Season 2 of On스트릿 organizes these interviews by occupation. Personally, this is one my favorite series to watch on YouTube, and I love to see all the different styles in the city.
Focusing on the young target audience, the concept of the title and further assets is based off a magazine look. The title features ripped paper texture, and paint texture on the actual text. It still appears playful and creative while also appealing to city-dwellers and those interested in fashion.

final frames - 2022
In late 2020 I was selected to be apart of SCAD MOMELove's COMOTION design team. Tasked with creating styleframes to fit into the Art Director Yuying Herr's unique style and vision for the title sequence. After dealing with returning from SCAD Hong Kong unexpectedly because of COVID-19, I applied for the COMOTION team in order to learn more about working in a team. We had deadlines for the color comps as well as multiple version of the styleframes for the title sequence.
I joined the design team again in 2021 to create styleframes for the 2022 title sequence.

2g love - thama
I created a lyric animation connecting to the retro and calm vibes of Thama's 2G Love.
Featuring a soft color palette and 2D animation look.

Hera
HERA is a world named after it's main character Hera, a young girl on a journey to find herself and what happened to the long-lost women of Sofia. In the icy nation by the Northern Sea, Hera leaves her aloof father and brother to chase after her mother's footprints. She meets Lux along the way, another lost daughter of the icy tundra. Together, they discover more about their lost family members as well as themselves.
Creating characters and stories is also a passion of mine, and I'd love to create a webtoon in the future. I would not be pursuing the arts without the stories told to me when I was young, and I hope to create visuals that will inspire the next generation of artists.

As a more 2D-oriented artist, I recently started learning and building my 3D skills. Cinema 4D has showed me a lot of pathways for my art to go.

Kiara - ez entertainment
For the summer of 2021, I worked at EZ Entertainment in Seoul, Korea to help promote their musician Kiara.
It was such a great experience living in one of the busiest and most creative cities in the world. I communicated with my coworkers and the company in Korean, sending my portfolio and CV to the CEO. Once I arrived, I was tasked with creating these character illustrations for the company to use on Kiara's instagram, designs for fancafe emojis and calendars, as well as a lyric video for Kiara's single 'Tomboy'.

A lot of the creative work I do is illustration work. I enjoy illustrating in my free time, and I have done commission illustrations through my instagram for a few years. I have taken multiple classes outside of school to learn more about portraiture and character design.
