Motion Graphics and Editing oversight

In 2019, I oversaw post on the sizzle intro for Jared Spataro's Ignite presentation. The piece had to open fast, line up with the script, and give the presentation a clear tone from the first frame.

I supervised the motion graphics and edit, and worked closely with the team to make sure the visuals and messaging landed together. The focus was on empowerment, technology, and the sense that Teams was helping move work forward.

• Coordinated across the team to make sure messaging and motion landed together.

I also oversaw post on the outro for the same presentation. That job was a little different. It had to feel connected to the opener, but also bring the talk to a clean close.

I guided the edit and graphics so the ending felt cohesive and memorable, and so the final beats reinforced the presentation's themes instead of just repeating them.

• Maintained visual continuity with the intro while giving the outro its own distinct close.
• Guided the edit so the final beats reinforced the presentation's themes without just repeating the opener.
• Ensured the ending felt cohesive and earned — not just a bookend.
