Motion Design
Starting with my own script, I use a mix of my original graphics with some stock art and previously designed art and work in After Effects to generate the sort of movement that is appealing and on brand.

SPOTLIGHT ON
The History Project
The History Project is a weekly video and podcast documentary series I create for the Commerce YouTube Channel and Spotify. It focuses on both the well-known and overlooked history of West Virginia. Each video lasts 2 minutes, 20 seconds and requires research, a script, imagery acquired from archival sources, narration and After Effects editing, all of which I do weekly. West Virginia PBS has picked it up to broadcast between programs.
Below are 28 of 88 videos created so far.
