My Story
Van is a 2D Motion Designer. His energy and passionate personality are reflected in his vivid and lively animation work.
Van has been a freelance motion designer for Taiwan’s National Immigration Agency, where he created 2D motion designs to convey a positive message to society. For instance, he built the animation ”E-Gate your smart choice,” which highlighted the convenience of E-gate and represented a positive travel experience.
Van watches many international studios gived the inspiration that he believes the most compelling and effective motion graphics draw on a variety of 2D and 3D techniques. As a result, he decided to study MFA Computer Arts at the School of Visual Arts. In his recent work, Van has implemented the skills he learned in this graduate program, including modeling, material, and lighting.
Now he continues to refine his animation skills in New York as a motion designer who can solve problems with different animation techniques.

Leadership Experience
SVA Computer Arts student representative
Implemented organizational and social skills to perform tasks delegated by the Computer Arts instructors. It seems to be a good way to invite everyone to hold exchange queues or publicize department policies.
The most important thing is to be able to exchange ideas with the department and come up with any proposals that will benefit the students.
