Take a look at this fun little animation I got to make for @fathappymedia! The mission was to make a fun JRPG-inspired animation to teach kids the importance of making connections in the professional world! Such a cool concept and I really loved making it. #motiondesign #jrpg

Super proud of this really cool animation I made for JamNola’s new location opening on Frenchmen Street! Go check it out folks!

✨ R E E LU P D A T E2 0 2 4 ✨ hi there everyone! Hope you’ve been moisturized and thriving. Here’s a little update to my reel since last year around this time. Lots of beautiful work with beautiful people. Hope there’s more to come soon! As always: HIRE ME #motiondesign #motiondesignreel

*PLEASE SHARE* Hey! I’m Ian (they/them) I’m 33, a freelance animator, and a 15-year-long New Orleans resident. I’m looking for a roommate starting in June or July! I have two cute pups, a big house, and an even bigger yard in the heart of St. Roch (on Music Street!). Plants abound, both indoor and outdoor. Lots of furniture and cookware already (but definitely down to integrate yours). Being a housemate with me would mean: you get the master bedroom, your own private bathroom, a huge walk-in closet, off-street parking, a shared office space, a modern kitchen (with dishwasher), a dining room, and plenty of shared living space. It’s honestly pretty sweet when I write it all out like that. Damn. Your rent would be $1150/month, not including utilities. Pets are a strong *maybe*. Please feel free to call or text me at (225)603-1037.

It’s been a while since I’ve made art for myself. I’ve been feeling a terribly loose connection to that side of myself in the past year and a half. Between experiencing deep cycles of depression and generally being swallowed up into work, I haven’t felt the urge to create. Life comes at you so fast.

I hope to make more art soon. I hope to feel creatively strong and inspired. I hope you like this stuff and you want to see more. I hope that means something to me.

Got a good news-bad news situation here, folks. Good news: I’m available for work (got laid off). Bad news: that means I have to force you to watch my brand new reel. So thankful to all the people and production houses that I worked with over the years. I am looking forward to the future and a new horizon that brings with it new opportunities. HIRE ME PLEASE 😩
