Why was this project needed?
Student Parent Success aimed to increase awareness about student parents in higher education. College access has historically been limited, and the PSA sought to illustrate how policies like the GI Bill, Civil Rights Act, and Digital Education changed access over time.
Key Challenges:
• Balancing Accuracy & Engagement
Making history concise yet impactful.
• Accessibility & Audience Context
Higher ed administrators needed clear, easy-to-digest messaging.
• Visual Consistency
AI-generated assets required manual refinements for brand cohesion.

My Approach:
• Research & Strategy – Mapped education milestones, identified audience gaps, and studied historical media.
• Storyboarding & Concept – Moodboards, wireframes, and iterative feedback loops with Student Parent Success stakeholders.
• Animation & Production – Motion graphics (After Effects), AI-enhanced visuals (Midjourney & Photoshop), final assembly (Premiere Pro).
