03 / About

Ten years of motion design tells me what to build. Code lets me build it.

I'm Jan, a Senior Motion Designer. I've spent a decade on brand campaigns, motion guidelines, 2D and 3D animation, editing and videography. Along the way I started turning creative bottlenecks into software: from an agentic AI assistant living inside After Effects to automation pipelines used across a global creative organisation. I'm hands-on, and I enjoy both the craft of creation and systematic thinking.
