Motion Design

MacArthur Fellows

Reuben Lara Animation Reel

The MacArthur Fellows program celebrates the creative potential of individuals through no-strings-attached $800,000 fellowships.

Since 2020, this collaboration has been one of the most rewarding. I brainstormed with and created ten to twenty second visuals for some of the most unique and talented thinkers, scientists, artists and writers of our generation. The incredible variety of topics and fields of study are a dream come true for a motion designer. They have pushed my ability to understand, then tell complex stories in simple ways and have broadened my technical range of animated styles.
