Available to hire
I’m Matthew, a passionate motion designer and art director who started my career in Chicago before coming back home to Austin. I love meeting new people and getting inspired by the world around me. Ideas drive me—I think, design, and then create visuals that tell compelling stories.
I founded Braised Animation to bring high-quality brand animations to tech and luxury clients. When I’m not animating, you can find me collaborating on various freelance projects or experimenting with new techniques to keep my craft sharp and fresh.
