I am thrilled to finally announce my latest work "NYC 3000" commissioned by MTA Arts & Design, which is now on view across the 52-screen digital display at Fulton Center, running two minutes at the top of every hour through Summer 2023! If you happen to be at the Fulton Station this summer please pause for a moment and see if you can catch the animations on display. I would love to hear what you think!

The 'New York City 3000,' is set in a retro-scifi inspired version of New York City in the future. The story follows a collection of strange creatures that are mischievous, funny, and cute as they roam around the city, causing playful mischief. These creatures are future residents of the city, representing the diverse cultures and communities that make up New York City.

To bring this animation to life, I began by storyboarding the plot and mapping out the placement of the creatures in the cityscape. The creatures are various types of beings, each with unique characteristics that reflect the diversity of the city's inhabitants. My process focused on integrating them seamlessly into the city and bringing the story to life through animation.

I drew inspiration for this project from the symbolic architecture of NYC, including the Empire State Building, Chrysler Center, Guggenheim Museum, New York Subway and Fulton Center. Using these landmarks, I created an imaginary future cityscape of NYC that combines the old with the new. I wanted to capture the energy and vibrancy of New York City, which led me to incorporate retro-sci-fi visuals and entertain and delight viewers with a whimsical take on the city's energy and architecture
