I have developed a strong interest in video production and 2D/3D animation, along with motion graphics to tell engaging stories and share important information. My experiences in this field have led me to pursue graduate research focused on the potential of technology, including AI, in filmmaking. I have expanded my visual and design skills and believe in the importance of media literacy for aspiring artists. Now, I am looking to incorporate game engines and game design into the future of media production.
“Media production takes dedication, a willingness to step onto new unfamiliar grounds and embrace the creative process. That is my passion. That is my drive.
This fire was fueled from a young age, from the video games I played to the animations that captured my imagination. As I grew older, I got enamored with the technological prowess of CGI and began honing my craft. This started me off on a journey where I was able to integrate the various forms of entertainment with a touch of creativity.
Having graduated from Nanyang Technological University, I have developed a keen interest in video making and creating VFX animated visuals and motion graphics to help tell stories and share comprehensible information. My experiences have led me to do graduate research in understanding future prospects of technology for film making. Today, I have managed to establish a wider spectrum of visual sense and design into my works.”
