I think, in the creativity world, it is every necessary for us to define our values in order to collaborate harmoniously and effectively. Beside are my 4 core values as a designer.

My Core values
09
My core values Simplicity I seek minimalism in my both my professional & personal life. First and foremost, I pledge to provide simple yet effective design solutions to your problems.
Creativity “Experiment! Experiment! Experiment!”, “Try something you have never done before”, “It’s okay to fail and do it again”, “Just keep on trying” are the inner voices that always guide me in the design process.
Integrity Truth & Transparency is one of the most important things I learned from my 9-month internship at Intel. Fell in love with the culture, I adopted that value into my daily work life ever since. To me, work could not reach its highest potential without integrity.
Commitment You will have the full of me since I rarely do multiple jobs at a time. I’m a bit nerdy so I’m nothing but good at committing to certain things, graphic, motion design, and a good company for instance.

Early in 2020, I thought to myself: “I want to have a good piece of work that shows I’m a motion graphics designer”. The problem was, at the time, I didn’t have enough pieces to put into a reel. But then I thought “So what? What am I waiting for? Let me make some more!”.
My work / Animation Showreel 2020

Brief Create nice-looking, flawless motion to make graphics come to life. Practice and apply creatively 12 principles of animation. Show my aesthetic taste and diverse style in graphic and motion design to attract potential clients.
Process I knew my showreel didn’t have to have a storyline. It would be just me showing what I love to do. 10 new pieces of animation were to be made for the project together with some pieces from my past projects. To make it diverse, I collaborated with 6 different illustrators, applied different styles of motion for their artworks. Match-cut transitions, similar pace of movements were applied to make everything function as one. The pace and movements are very well-fitting with the fun & youthful style I intended. In addition to the visual appearance, I also mixed the sound effects for the whole clip. I had so much fun and learned so many things while making the video.

Animation Showreel 2020
Brief Create a one-minute motion graphics video for a pop hit (It Ain’t Me). Make the song visually come to life with eye-catching and compelling movements & aesthetic graphic elements.
Solution In my attempt to make something new, I decided to make a square ratio lyrics video, which has never been done before, to make it unique, standout, and more accessible for social media (considering it’s a short clip). The gradient color was to give a youthful, modern look. Combining with geometric graphics elements and compositions, together they created a fun & dynamic feel for the videos, which is visually harmonious with the song’s vibe & rhythm.

My work / Troubles Animated Short Film

Brief Make a 5-min 2D animated short film to exhibit our professional skills gained from earlier courses and projects at FPT University. Convey meaningful messages to our target audience through.
Process We made significant efforts to research the “narcissism epidemic” amongst today’s youth, to understand the problem before making our approach. The next step - the pre-production stage, including character & background design, storyboard, and animatics, is developed very elaborately. We planned out the film very as thoroughly as possible, which helped us a lot in the production stage. The production (illustration & animation) is completed on a very tight schedule but we managed to put quality in our high priority.
Key Roles Project team leader: Manage production timeline, delegate tasks to each member of the team, control the product quality. Screenwriter, Character Illustrator, Character Animator, Camera operator (partly), Editor & Graphic Designer for the project
