Shengying Zhao

I’m a motion media designer and illustrator based in Shanghai and Atlanta, currently pursuing my MFA at SCAD. My work blends cinematic motion, character-driven storytelling, and strong graphic sensibility. I enjoy producing projects from the ground up—developing concepts, building visual worlds, and bringing them to life through 2D and 3D animation.

Proficient in After Effects, Cinema 4D, Blender, Toon Boom Storyboard Pro & Harmony, Illustrator, InDesign, and Procreate, I’m focused on growing a unified practice where design, narrative, and animation coexist seamlessly. I’m currently developing personal narrative projects that reflect this goal.
