Motion
Chasing Stars
This short goes through three different scenarios as a little girl chases a star and discovers new environments. Done in After Effects and Procreate.
Goodnight
What if this happened when we fell asleep? A little short on dreams and quiet moments.
This motion graphics was a way of learning how to use light sources in After Effects. It was a lot of fun to learn through giving motion to this illustration and figuring out how to make the moonlight affect the trees as the moon passed through the river.
Galaxy Showers
A small motion graphics made for a contest on the cutest character of the galaxy.

Trick or Treat
This was a collaborative piece for a gallery show at the Fridge Gallery. Between five artists, each of us made a piece of a Halloween narrative and then I joined them to make a simple motion graphics with a floating leaf going through the environments. I have included my piece as a standalone motion illustration as well.
Sad Little Ghost
A Halloween inspired hand drawn animation of two friends sharing candy. It’s become a Halloween tradition!
University of Calgary
I made some slightly animated icons for a video by the University of Calgary on the impact of research. The video editor wanted to show the interaction between the university and Calgary, which is why I made icons of both, while using the university’s colors.

Spring Witches
A small motion graphics that tells the story of two witches making potions in their little cottage. This narrative was inspired by making perfumes in my best friend’s garden when I was little.
Dreaming of Space
A motion graphics project consisting of making three icons and joining them through transitions in After Effects.
“By the moonlight beams, it’s quiet, until a shooting star appears”
The Right Song
A short motion graphics made in honor of Paige McMorrow’s character. This project was a way of figuring out lip syncing.
Tamagotchi Ad
A Tamagotchi advertising project done in After Effects.
AR Illustration
With this illustration I worked with the layers in augmented reality so that they can be moved around when viewing them from your phone using either a QR code or pointing at the image itself.
