1. What is the best memory you share with your team?

One of the most unforgettable experiences with the animation team was the weekend workshops leading up to our final deadline. There’s a unique camaraderie that forms when creatives work side by side, even virtually. Though I was on the Atlanta campus with just two other animators, we remained connected with the entire team over Zoom throughout each session. Given that animation was the largest team, coordinating everyone at once was a challenge, making those rare moments when we were all online feel truly special.

1. If you could go back in time, what would you have done diIerently?

If I could turn back time, I would advocate for tighter deadlines and more fully developed animatics and designs from the start. With such limited time, we found ourselves somewhat unrefined in the early stages, which led to crucial decisions being delayed and much of the work being pushed to the last minute. This last-minute rush left little room for refinement or problem-solving. Had we placed a stronger emphasis on preproduction we could have identified potential issues earlier, adjusted accordingly, and ultimately created a more polished final product with less crunch times.

1. What excites you most about the industry you are in?

What excites me most about motion design is the spirit of collaboration. Working alongside such talented and driven artists on projects makes every challenge worthwhile. Motion design is inherently multidisciplinary, and often brings together experts from various fields, which adds even more depth to the process. The opportunity to exchange perspectives, learn new techniques, and explore fresh ideas is what truly fuels my love for this industry. Given the choice between working solo or as part of a team, I will always choose the team.
