GOAL
As the Peter A. Kreuger Digital Media Intern, I was tasked with spending the summer assisting the Cross Platform Publishing department create video content for social media. I created the following:
- Nine animations of objects in our collection to promote the musuem on Instagram.
- Six animations that represent themes for an upcoming exhibition, to be used in a video series.
- A custom font, named Margaret after Andrew and Louise Carnegie’s daughter. It is a handwritten version of the Cooper Hewitt font, which I used in all my animations (and also on this website).
I also assisted with visiting sites to film long-form videos for YouTube, and adding audio descriptions onto exhibition videos to make them accessible.
