SHADY REFAT
About me.
I’m a 2D Motion Graphic Designer with 5+ years of experience transforming concepts into dynamic and meaningful visuals.
I create motion that communicates, simplifies, and captivates, from animated videos to large-scale event visuals. My work blends thoughtful pacing and strong storytelling to deliver visuals that feel polished, purposeful, and memorable across every platform.
With experience working on major events, corporate campaigns, and global organizations, I collaborate seamlessly with designers, content teams, event managers, and producers to build cohesive visual systems. Whether it’s social content, an animated identity, or a full stage screen experience, I focus on creating work that elevates brands and enhances the audience experience at every touchpoint.
