Project: “The Two Georges: Parallel Lives in an Age of Revolution”
I created the motion graphics for The Two Georges exhibition at the Library of Congress. Positioned at the entrance to the show, these videos set the tone for a major national exhibition exploring the lives of George Washington and King George III.
A video highlighting US Marines' humanitarian and disaster relief missions around the world
For the National Museum of the Marine Corps exhibition titled No Better Friend, I edited this 2-minute video highlighting the humanitarian and disaster relief missions that the US Marines have conducted around the world and here in the United States.
Sizzle Reels for Museums
When you create media for museums, showing the media in situ contextualizes and provides references for what the full visitor experience feels like. That’s why I created these “sizzle reels” — mini museum tours that show off all the media produced for one exhibit or one museum. Enjoy!
Interactive Design for Courtroom Drawings
For a special exhibition at the Library of Congress called Drawing Justice: The Art of Courtroom Illustration, I designed an interactive touchscreen, which allowed visitors to explore these courtroom drawings in greater depth — organized by theme, or organized by artist.
Adding Depth to a Video about Flat Art
This spring I had the pleasure of joining the Hillmann & Carr team as we produced two pieces of media for the Library of Congress's special exhibition, Drawing Justice: The Art of Courtroom Illustration. For us, the challenge was to take existing archival footage and make it visually exciting. I did that by adding depth.
6K Motion Graphics
For the Fort York National Historic Site in Toronto, Ontario, I created motion graphics which stretch across three 1080p projections. Using the full canvas for my motion graphics palette, I was able to create several epic motion graphics sequences.
The Search for Justice
The Search for Justice is a 15-minute 3-screen documentary about the trials of the Oklahoma City bombers. I created a motion graphics framework for this piece, "building on" the layout of important newspaper pages, rotoscoping legal documents into archival footage, and creating a parallax or "2 1/2 D" effect for courtroom drawings.
UX Design for a War of 1812 historic site
At this visitor center for the Fort York National Historic Site in Toronto, Ontario, I designed the user experience for two interactive touchscreens: a wayfinding touchscreen to orient users to the site, and another interactive program that lets visitors explore parallel stories of 1812-era inhabitants of the town and modern citizens. A feedback component allows visitors to tell their own stories.
Celebrating a Neuroscience Pioneer
This video was produced for a special exhibition hosted by the National Institutes of Health devoted to the pioneering drawings of early neuroscientist Santiago Ramón y Cajal. I created a visual timeline showing important leaders in the development of neuroscience that would place Cajal's achievements in context.
Staging an Interactive Opera
In this post, I walk through the user experience design process of creating an interactive opera game for the Marilyn Horne Opera Center: from wireframing to drawing cartoon opera singers in Adobe Illustrator, to animating them in Adobe Character Animator, and the final product being enjoyed in the museum.
