What I'm looking for
¡Hola! I'm Anna, a motion designer, video editor, and illustrator based in Tokyo with over 7 years of experience in creating engaging multimedia content. My proficiency in After Effects, Adobe Premiere, Photoshop, and Illustrator allows me to craft high-quality graphics and video content that resonates with audiences. Recently, I have expanded my skill set through boot camps and freelancing, where I designed and animated short film titles and end credits.
At Koala, I played a pivotal role in planning, crafting, and delivering brand-aligned videos for OOH and eOOH campaigns. As the Video Lead at Innovative Language Learning, I streamlined workflows, developed motion graphic templates, and led a team of editors to deliver high-quality e-learning content. I am eager to take on new challenges, learn, and bring creative projects to life.
