Hello :)
I’m Hyeji from South Korea. I’m a motion graphic designer and illustrator based in London. I have 10 years motion graphic work experience in Korea and the UK.
I started my motion graphic career in a character motion specialist design agency in Korea where I stayed for 3.5 years before moving to the UK for my next design challenge.
In 5 years in London, I’ve worked in 4 different design agencies in London, dealing with a variety of motion design including brand motion, GFX for movie & documentary, web animation, explainer videos and social media.
I love character and story based motion graphics but also I’m adaptive for all kinds of motion graphic design.
I’m always open to new opportunities and exciting projects, including freelance work (I’ve been working freelance in my spare time since 2013).

Freelance motion graphic designer & illustrator - whenever I’m available
I love visualising my original ideas and making pieces of artwork, using my artwork skills. Since I graduated from my university, I have worked on freelance projects whenever I’m available. So I worked on motion graphic style frames for IBM, and I created promotional illustrations for Häagen-Dazs. Also, I collaborated with my previous company and produced motion graphic artwork for Nexon and Dr Jart.
