The goal of this project was to construct a “building of the future” based on the letter “A” in Avenir font. The challenge of this assignment was to emulate the letter “A” while making an appealing, complex build with a futuristic twist. The animation and build of the house was created in Cinema 4D. The twinkling stars in the sky were later added in After Effects. Sound design rendered in Adobe Audition. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1552933557249-43314RN9XUIL6NLLIDAR/Screen%252BShot%252B2019-03-18%252Bat%252B1.14.11%252BPM.jpg Isometric House The design of the house was based on an rustic A-frame cabin. It was modelled to be both appealing to look at as well as to conceptually live in. I gave the rustic form a modernized twist by adding glass walls and hovering stairs, as well as elevating it above the trees and stream in order to be a part of nature without disrupting it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1550003261125-KI098ILPWE5HFHM70P6N/image-asset.jpeg Isometric House https://www.anjapearson.com/contact daily 0.75 2026-01-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1767808448864-ODPQSYP6OOCGA704W3TH/unsplash-image-xgn822lnt4Q.jpg New Page https://www.anjapearson.com/gig-poster daily 0.75 2019-03-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1550012640522-9N5LKYLI064WCIUVFAYO/image-asset.jpeg New Page - Gig Poster https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1549998882876-2EZ5B0MNTRB9029A3ZO9/image-asset.jpeg New Page - Kadhja Bonet gig poster This project was done for an in-class motion graphics challenge; the objective was to create an animated sequence using a previous work of art. I chose to animate a gig poster concept designed for Jazz/Folk singer Kadhja Bonet. The initial design was developed for a separate Graphic Design assignment, which required creating an promotional poster which combined different artistic styles. I played with combining art nouveau and psychedelic poster designs to reflect her unique blend of musical styles and influences in her songs. Inspiration was taken from Kadhja Bonet’s music for the design, which is largely based on her song “Honeycomb.” The thick outlines, natural forms of flowers and bees, and the powerful female form are reflective of art nouveau style. The dripping elements, bold contrasting colour scheme, and hand-drawn text are reminiscent of 60’s psychedelic music posters. The animated component was rendered in a span of 3 hours as part of an in-class challenge. I enjoy how the subtle animation makes the art seem as if it is itself alive and “in bloom,” tying it back to the art nouveau and psychedelic styles. Again, I tried to be true to the musical themes in Kadhja Bonet’s work, which reflect growth, femininity, sensuality and rebirth. The final poster design was created using a combination of Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop illustration. Animation was done through After Effects. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1550003216435-XTTKYIULXM1O9K6D4OZ0/image-asset.jpeg New Page https://www.anjapearson.com/music-video daily 0.75 2019-03-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1552927693877-7C5B67161X2AF2VYSZ6V/Screen%2BShot%2B2019-03-18%2Bat%2B11.46.34%2BAM.jpg page The primary band footage was shot within an abandoned warehouse on 3 separate Canon DSLR cameras. Secondary footage of "The Witch” scenes were shot in a staged residential home. We used a lot of practical tricks to bring the story to life; the combination of lighting, coloured filters, and post-production editing created a dark mood reflective of the song’s lyrics. We even created the voodoo doll props by hand - one for each band member. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1552927958744-N35RHDUN7DYC9XQI03FM/Screen+Shot+2019-03-18+at+11.45.00+AM.png page - Indelible - Mortalis I had so much fun putting together this music video with local Winnipeg heavy metal band Mortalis for the release of their new song “Indelible.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1550012437823-FAX2G2KU1Y0VU7Z756E5/image-asset.jpeg page - Music Video https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1552927312161-YBJPRUD0ZIVPWVRQGQ2I/Screen%2BShot%2B2019-03-18%2Bat%2B11.40.00%2BAM.jpg page From start to finish, the project took approximately 3 weeks to complete. The process comprised of many parts, beginning with creating a preliminary script and shot list, band meetings, script revisions, prop construction, staging, setup, shooting, and post-production. The end result turned out even better than we had anticipated, and the band was thrilled with the results. Special thanks to the guys for being so involved and so much fun to work with - Josh, Kris, Ben, Scotty, Patty, and Spacebar Dave. Additional thanks and actor credit to Monica Fontaine as “The Witch.” Song written and recorder by Mortalis. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1552927771124-JVAL6THMFF78VZCVI491/Screen%2BShot%2B2019-03-18%2Bat%2B11.44.10%2BAM.jpg page This project began as a final group project as part of the RRC Digital Media Design program, and became much more. It was a challenge to combine our class project’s requirements with the band’s desires for a video that reflected their unique heavy metal style at the same time. Working with fellow RRC students Karina Lebedeva and Amanda Devenney, this music video was put together over two full days of filming in two separate locations, and many nights of post-production editing. https://www.anjapearson.com/did-you-know daily 0.75 2019-03-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1552934190736-DZUCRXTYFT3FGJT61Z4W/Screen%2BShot%2B2019-03-18%2Bat%2B1.34.57%2BPM.jpg Did You Know..? To overcome this obstacle, I used a very minimalistic style of illustration enhanced with easy-to-follow visual cues. I focused on a narrative-style explanation, as if the viewer were watching a storybook come to life and following the progression of the character - in this case, the baby octopus. The visual cues of the ruler to measure the size of the octopus help qualify the narration as well. Illustrations created in Adobe Illustrator. Animation done in After Effects.

The goal of the project was to create a 2D animated explainer video that communicated a “fun fact” to the viewer with visual narrative. The most challenging aspect of this project was to communicate the message clearly with mostly visual cues, with as little text as possible. Text can be cumbersome and distracting from the visuals, especially in such a short span of 7 seconds, and was to be avoided if possible. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1550003516313-44PWH6J81FYX3YP19HIR/image-asset.jpeg Did You Know..? https://www.anjapearson.com/logo-build daily 0.75 2019-03-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3f6850a9e028c498ecd137/1552924447640-ADBVOFXLVFDMOQU6D5EK/gbw.png Logo Build After researching the brand and consulting Global Black Watch’s brand guide specifications and colour scheme, I designed a fast-paced piece comprised of quick, flowing ribbons of movement and geometric shapes that reflected the brand logo visually and added excitement.
