Below are some of my students’ wonderful works that were created in my courses.
Wushu by Lily Huang
Medium: Rotoscoping
Award: Honorable Mention over the entire categories in Flux Design Contest 2018
Motion graphics grab our hearts powerfully when the moving image and sound are integrated with careful timing. Lily Huang has achieved this in her exquisite illustration that reminds us of ink wash paintings on rice paper (水墨畫), and a figure doing Wushu (武术), the Chinese Martial art, as well as her choice of music, which all reflects her rich cultural heritage.
Instacart by Dowson Hoppes

Award: Winner in Motion Design category of Flux Design Contest 2019
The Life of Ray Bradbury by Simran Gill

This animation has approximately a whopping 17K views on YouTube as of 2025. It’s definitely the highest record of views any of my students have ever earned with their work! No, it did not produce any money. 🙂

Milky by Gary Crisostomo

A logo is the face and ID of a business. Gary Crisostomo has executed this daunting task with excellence. He carefully integrated typography, color and shape to suggest the image of a cow in a warm and friendly style. Milky Tea Bar emphasizes its freshness and playfulness and attracts the target audience through its logo.
