A course by Caroline Kjellberg
Caroline Kjellberg is a Danish freelance motion designer and illustrator with a passion for telling stories through mixed-media animation. Storytelling has played a huge part in Caroline's life since she was young, and she loves nothing more than getting lost in a magical fictional world. Her passion for stories and traveling led her to study and work in Denmark, California, Australia, and Tokyo where, despite specializing in everything from film direction to journalism, she discovered a love of motion design and animation which kickstarted her current career in 2017.
Since then, she has worked with international brands including Visit California, Beats by Dre, Carlsberg, and UNIQLO, creating everything from music videos to gifs. She believes the main ingredients needed to become a good animator are passion and fun, and she's committed to finding new ways to tell stories by changing the way we create content in an ever-evolving digital world.
