Hi, I'm Maddie Hansen, a brand design intern at Hudl and a senior journalism and advertising and public relations major at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln.
I love creating. I love the thrill when a bright ray of inspiration hits my brain after the rainclouds of brainstorming. The vision in my mind of how my work will turn out often looks nothing like the final result, and I love that too. Getting feedback and talking about my ideas with others transforms my designs for the better.
Animation was the first time I got to see my work come to life. Drawing, painting, and graphic design are rewarding, but envisioning how my design will move and executing that is so much better. My dream is to be a motion designer and give brands energy, action, and vibrancy through animation.
Because I learned graphic design before animation, I am experienced in both sides of the process. I can seamlessly switch between Illustrator and After Effects when changes need to be made. Instead of relying on a graphic designer to update a vector asset or edit a layer, I can do it myself, streamlining the process.
I am a motivated hard worker who sets high standards for myself and my work. My college experiences have transformed me into a strong problem solver, communicator, and leader. Message me if you're interested in working together or want to discuss job opportunities.
