About the Artist & Resume
Emily Caesar
Resume
My name is Emily Caesar, and I have been an animator and illustrator since 2004. I graduated from the Art Institute of Seattle that same year, and have lived in many places since then. Now, I am back in my hometown in Los Angeles, CA.
I create videos and artwork that are mostly used for educational and informative/marketing purposes. I also illustrate images for textile and product companies that range from kids clothes to adult designs.
I have experience in marketing on social media as well, with either managing the content or producing the material used in the campaigns. The material can be short ads, images, or full animated series.
I enjoy following the data and figuring out the most cost effective way to advertise a product or message. I have managed websites content/pages as well and I can make a full campaign that covers all the media platforms.
