Hello, My name is Houda. I’m a freelance motion designer and art director with 12 years of experience. My work lies at the intersection of visual poetry and animated storytelling. I’m particularly drawn to immersive formats such as video mapping, which I’ve been developing over the years through stage projects related to events, heritage, museum exhibitions, and live performances. At the same time, I create motion design videos for visual identity projects, teasers, educational content, lyric videos, documentaries, and title sequences — always with a strong focus on aesthetics and rhythm.
