About me
My name is Yaniv Fridman. I am a recent graduate from the Digital Design
program at Vancouver Film School (VFS), Canada, following four years of work
in the field of broadcasting both as a film editor and a motion designer.
I began my training with a Bachelors Degree in Communication from Universidad
Iberoamericana in Mexico City, Mexico, with a focus on film and TV. Graduating
with honors, I spent four years working in the field doing film editing, motion
graphics, and working freelance at different production studios and for a TV
Network in Mexico City. Deciding to further my skill in motion graphics, I chose
to attend VFS.
In my time at VFS I focused in creative direction and motion graphics, though
the training included print, branding, interactive, and communication design.
VFS is a one year studio-based program in which we constantly worked in
collaboration and with tight deadlines to complete industry quality projects.
My portfolio pieces include the design of a motion graphics studio, a brand
identity, and a motion piece to promote it. Other projects include an infographic
about the history and importance of the bridesmaid (semifinalist at the 2008
Adobe Achievement Awards and featured on several design blogs including
motionographer, feed and xplsv.tv), a music video, tv idents, a title sequence,
and a book design.
