Season of Giving (SoG) Animation:
STCU’s first internally produced animated campaign, made possible by bringing animation in-house for the first time. This animation work supported major campaign storytelling while increasing internal motion capacity.
I focused on animation and visual storytelling as part of a 10-person cross-functional team, collaborating with copy, social, leadership, and audio to bring the campaign to life. Also created a “Double Your Donation” animation from existing campaign graphics.
