G'day! Lovely to meet you I'm Alyssa, aka Horrible Horris.

I'm an animator, illustrator, motion designer and general creative dabbler.

In 2019-2020 I was teaching a short course all about Motion Graphics in After Effects. The whole department I was teaching into took a huge blow with COVID and shut down, never to return. Now I have all these classes that I created, just sitting on a google drive with no where to go.

I have continued to teach into VE and Higher Ed into similar but not totally the same areas. So I thought, let's bring the classes to Skillshare. At least then they're out int the world and not just gathering metaphorical dust on a hard drive.

My mentality to teaching is how I got into this field in the first place - I was doing it because it was fun, I enjoyed the puzzles the projects created, at it wasn't until I got a job that I realised this was a career. So none of my teaching is (hopefully) going to be scary, daunting or overwhelming. The goal is to maintain that connection to the fun craft of animation.

My day jobs include, Motion Graphics Artist at ABC News, Teacher at both RMIT and Swinburne and co-directing a small production company where I lead visual development. This particular role has had me turn a hand at many different facets of the animation process, including character design, storyboarding, 2D and stop-motion animating, directing and even a spot of hand modelling! You can find out more about our company and what we do at piratesizeproductions.com

When I'm not creating for work, I am creating for leisure. Most recently (and probably most proudly) I made a crochet wombat for my two nephews, featuring a little bum flap, filled with little cube poos.
