What I did at NBC

During my time at NBC I worked across multiple projects — from rotoscoping and motion graphics to broadcast-ready on-air graphics. I contributed to live coverage including the Today Show and the White House Correspondents' Dinner.

Every piece had to meet broadcast quality standards and work within tight timelines, which pushed me to work faster and more precisely than any classroom project ever had.

Rotoscoping Projects

Rotoscoping involves tracing over live footage frame by frame to create clean animation or stylized motion graphics. These two pieces were part of my work at NBC.

On-Air Work

These three pieces aired on NBC. Seeing your own work broadcast to a live audience is a completely different feeling from finishing a project for class.

What I learned

Working at NBC was the first time I had to design for a deadline that couldn’t move — broadcast waits for nobody. That pressure changed how I work entirely.

Rotoscoping at a professional level taught me patience and precision I didn’t know I had. And seeing something I built actually air on national television — on the Today Show, during the Olympics — is something I’ll always remember.
