Hi! I'm Jacqueline Lai (Jacq Lai). I'm an illustrator and motion designer based in Toronto, Canada. I work primarily in the motion design industry with experience from ideation (styleframe, storyboard) to production (asset creation and animation). My hope is that my work can be used as a tool for being compassionate to others and ourselves. If I'm not drawing/animating, you can find me either playing the guitar, singing, petting dogs or finding the next best sushi restaurant.
I work at Polyester Studio as an animator and illustrator.
Select clients I've worked with:
American Express, City of Toronto, Food Network Canada, Kobo, Toronto Region Board of Trade, Alibi Entertainment, Samsung, TouchBistro, TradeRev, FLARE Magazine (Rogers Media)
