The Life of a Motion Designer with Brian Phillips

Rescheduled for April 21, 2011
IUPUI Campus Center 

   
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

A Motion Designer may be a new term to most, but the work of a Motion Designer shows up in many aspects of media and entertainment. From title graphics on the silver screen to apps on the mobile screen, a Motion Designer's work enhances the audience's experience. A Motion Designer's skills are rooted in graphic design, but extend to film making and animation. Brian Phillips, creative director at the Basement Design + Motion, will walk us through his journey as a Motion Designer and breakdown his production pipeline in Adobe After Effects.
