    Hi, my name’s Steve, I’m a South African motion designer with an extensive history working within advertising agencies and studios. I have a very deep knowledge of Adobe After Effects and building automation tools for video. I’m a digital native with a love for art, animation, graphic design, sound design and creative programming. I spent a lot of my youth making small games and coded visual experiments, while studying multimedia design and creative communications I discovery the power of After Effects and 3D animation software and saw how it blended so much of what I really enjoy into one, that’s when I knew I wanted to be a motion designer. I’ve had the privilege of being able to work along side some great teams of creatives in advertising agencies around Cape Town and have worked on loads of really interesting and challenging projects for some great brands, some of these challenges drove me into the technical aspects of video production where I’ve found a passion for automation and tool development within the animation field. I love solving problems and yearn for creative challenges. I studied a Bachelor of Arts in creative brand communications specializing in multimedia design where I won several awards, as well as being nominated for student of the year at the annual Adfocus awards in South Africa.
