I've been working in the Adobe creative suite since I was a kid, and now I have 3 kids of my own and I'm doing this for a living. The past eight years in full-time freelance have really honed my expertise in Motion Graphics, where I've animated everything from movie bumpers to explainer videos to special FX, and everything in between. I've even taken on an adjunct teaching position at Chapman University in the graphic design department. I also have extensive 3D experience in Maya and Cinema4D for both games and pre-rendered quality assets. For the work I did in advertising, I was the full production coordinator. I did everything from design to modeling, animation, final rendering and compositing, etc. With my degree in Computer Animation and a minor in Digital Film, I learned not only the software, but I got a solid foundation in traditional arts. The many entertainment genres I've studied or worked in make me versatile enough to handle polished corporate work, story-driven animation, game-ready video game assets, or even live-action visual effects. I'm a great multimedia guy with a solid background in the principles of animation! I'm excited to tackle whatever project you have. I recently incorporated under the name JZ Motion, Inc., so that should bring great confidence to anyone who has been frustrated by flaky or unresponsive freelancers. This is my livelihood, and I tackle every contract with a high degree of professionalism.

Hi! I am a Motion, Graphic, & Editorial Designer with over 10 years of experience. I am originally from California where I graduated from UCLA. I am currently based in San Diego where I work for a top communications and entertainment channel, designing graphics and animations for their many branded digital channels nationwide. I have worked for big companies in the media world including NBC, Telemundo, San Diego Union Tribune, and CBS4 Print Publications and have also created marketing designs for The Hudson Group, Travelex. and Tui, the American University of Aruba, among many others. At UCLA, I was Design Director for my school's newspaper, the Daily Bruin. After graduating, I was hired by the San Diego Union Tribune as a Features Page Designer where I was in charge of the conceptualization and execution of the Home + Garden section. I often designed the next day's news which taught me how to work in a fast-paced environment under tight deadlines. I moved to Miami to work for CBS4 Print Publications, designing a magazine and various advertisements for the local CBS channel.
