SF Bay area Motion / Graphic DesignerDesmond

I'm a Motion and Graphic Designer, with many years experience in the field. As a designer, at DesignerDesmond, I've had the opportunity to work on complex projects that have given me the opportunity to get experience working as a solo artist or with a team. I've been working as a technical media freelance artist, as it gives me the means to communicate directly with the customers, enabling me to become more in tune with the client’s needs and expectations. Whatever your branding needs, from Music covers, banner design, art direction, matte paintings, music videos, logos (2D, 3D), business cards, motion graphics, logo design, production logo's, Facebook graphics, creative retouching, audio production or package design.. I strongly believe I'm the Designer for the job, so feel free to contact me here on my website, or directly through email at holt.desmond@gmail.com ( just put DESIGN somewhere in the subject line.) I appreciate you taking the time to learn about your Artist.

DesignerDesmond The Experience

​Welcome to DesignerDesmond Land. This is a graphical experience simulating a cyber coaster set in the creative mind of DesignerDesmond. Please keep your hands and feet inside of the car at all times :) 

​In this video I show you the end result of an idea I had. I thought to myself, if I could take a photo and turn it into a scene that has real depth, I could take my green screen production to the next level. I was very successful. I have now started compositing a photo to turn into a 3d set based on photo-realism.
I have been saying I wanted to make a Island out of my logo. One thing lead to another, and now I have a chocolate Island Pool.... in the middle of a desert (or should I say dessert ) Island. When You don't have to pay for props, chocolate and property, you can go overboard quick.
Production logo I recently completed for United Roots in Oakland. This organization specializes in training young marginalized talent, enabling them to become entrepreneurs. To find out more please feel free to visit their website!  

Production logo's, Instagram Video & Co. Animation

Bring your company to life with motion. Lets face it, without video you are dead in the water. Make your videos more professional with a animated version of your logo or a cool scene to convey a message. The possibilities are endless. Contact me today for yours.

Creative experiments!

Decided to advance my skills and learn sculpting. This is the first session of sculpting. I think I'm a natural.
The completed version is the next image. I like to make cartoon versions of people!

Drake's views from the six had me thinking, maybe we should zoom in to make sure it's really Drake. :) I took the famous cover and added some motion to it.
​I was trying my hand at fluid simulations. I have the dynamics down, I just didn't have the time to render the high density mesh. This resulted in the water looking like glass in some places. Just a test project, I didn't feel the need to refine it.
Me blocking out a character  for a personal project. I typically do motion graphics, leaving me with not much need for characters. I still think it's cool, so I'm training myself. I like to show people my successes and my struggles..... I'm an artist. I even created this instrumental! I'm proud to say, this was a success. I can't wait for phase 2.
