During my time at the Center for Parent and Teen Communication  I was tasked with creating my own independent  project. I decided to create my own animation that illustrated the best ways to nurture the teen brain. 

​

With insight from several professionals in the adolescent development department,  I was able to create an approachable and insightful educational animation. I faced several challenges along the way including designing inclusive looking characters, editing the script to make talking points both meaningful and short in length, and rendering the whole video from my home computer in the midst of a pandemic. Though animation is not my strong suit, I'm glad to have tackled a project that made me utilize new techniques, exercise some new muscles, and made me think differently about the things I make.
