My primary skill is video editing and I usually work on projects that have dedicated motion designers to handle any graphics or visual effects. Motion design has always fascinated me though, and I started learning the ropes years ago so I could create simple graphics myself and make adjustments to anything I received from the design team.
The corporate reel lower on this page shows the work I’ve created for clients, but I wanted to create a reel that would give you a better sense of my motion design capabilities. To give the reel a unified theme, I set each shot in the Musser Motion Universe.

CORPORATE MOTION REEL
The projects I work on usually have dedicated motion designers to handle the graphics but here are a few examples of my solo work.
UNSCRIPTED TV MOTION REEL
When I started editing unscripted television, many of the shows I worked on included a lot of motion graphics. While I always had access to a dedicated graphics department, I enjoyed helping them with the hefty workload.
