Hi, I’m Karl Lacson, a seasoned motion graphics designer with a passion for crafting engaging visuals across consumer electronics and marketing channels. I’m fluent in Adobe After Effects, Premiere Pro, Illustrator, Photoshop, Cinema 4D, and Octane, with hands-on experience in 2D/3D animation and in-house video production. I enjoy collaborating with teams to bring product stories to life and to launch compelling campaigns. I’ve contributed to major launches for Apple and Samsung and supported a range of partners, combining creativity with practical scheduling and budgeting. When I’m not building visuals, I enjoy photography and videography with DSLRs and am always exploring new techniques to push the boundaries of storytelling.
