Hey there!
My name is Mike Kaiser
and I'm a creative professional,
and full-time motion
designer.
What I Do
Services
Motion Graphics
I am currently employed full time as a Digital Motion Art Director. I work a lot in both After Effects and Cinema 4d to accomplish most of the animation tasks, but have experience with Animaite (Formerly Flash) and Character Animator. I love all things motion pictures related and have spent the last 10 years developing my craft.
Illustration
I've been drawing and painting ever since I can remember. These days, it's almost exclusively digital work but I still use pencil and a sketch book every now and again.
3D
The world of 3D has been a major focus of mine for about 5 years now. With the recent addition of Substance Painter to my arsenal, I'm excited to see what the next few years bring as far as 3D opportunities are concerned.
Code
I do it when necessary. After taking a C++ course in high school, I found coding to be useful in my artistic pursuits. During the transition from print production to motion graphics, I spent some time developing web banners and animations with Flash and ActionScript 3. Since then, I've leveraged that skill set to develop plugins for both Indesign and After Effects.
