Interactive Animation Design

Designs for educational interactive animations and mock applications. These designs were created in Photoshop, Flash, and After Effects. "The Shackleton Project" is a design for an educational interactive animation for middle school students. The animation is based on the true story of Sir Ernest Henry Shackleton's 1914 Endurance expedition to the South Pole. During this journey, Shackleton led his 28 man crew to safety after their ship was crushed by pack ice. iLie is a mock mobile application designed to construct customizable lies for any given situation. I contributed to this project along with fellow animators/designers Lorrie Guess and Kirby Culbertson. During this collaborative project, I assisted with concept/interface design, script writing, asset creation, animation, and video and sound editing. In this individual project, I was responsible for all areas of concept/interface design, asset creation and organization, animation, and sound and video editing. "iLie" was edited and animated in After Effects.
