CoMotion 2021 Title Sequence

Project description
CoMotion is a student-led motion graphics conference at the Savannah College of Art and Design. Conductor is about the process from death to rebirth. Even if the pandemic affects our lives, it will not affect our enthusiasm. The story begins with many dead musical instruments. The conductor directs them to play a grand symphony in the SCAD museum.

I was the Lead Animator in this project, and led a team of 11 animators to produce the event’s title sequence virtually. I was primarily responsible for technical direction and engineering animation techniques and toolkits using Javascript expression to maximize efficiency and effectiveness. I also performed project management such as building asset list, task assignment, production schedule, and creating a safe environment for team members to do their best work.
