As director of the short animated film Die For My Baby, I led a large, cross-departmental team of student artists over the span of a year. Throughout production, I mentored younger animators by providing animation guides, visual references, and regular, actionable feedback.

I was also a go-to resource outside of meetings—offering advice, encouragement, and clarification in person whenever team members needed extra support.

This experience sharpened my ability to teach with patience, empathy, and a focus on helping early-career artists grow creatively and confidently.

See below for examples of animation guides to make it as easy as possible for the students to follow my film’s art direction.
