Animated explainers

In a class on Data, Design and Animation, I learned how to make animated explainer-style videos using Adobe After Effects. Here are a few examples of how I put that knowledge to use:

Maternal mortality in New York City:  Animated video created for a group project at Columbia University’s graduate school of journalism. See video here.

How trauma and poverty impact a child’s brain, Hechinger Report: See video on YouTube. Jackie Mader created the video and I created the animation of a child’s brain.

Videos on the go

Multimedia journalists today need to make great stories while still in the field. When covering the Russian-speaking community in New York, I used my iPhone to film stories about a Ukrainian folk singer and an organization that helps Holocaust survivors.

“Remember”

“The Soul of the People”
