What's your history?
"My moniker is Sylvia Boomer Yang. I'm an illustrator, animator, and GIF artist who is based in Brooklyn, New York. As part of my job as an artist I make animations, motion graphics and storyboards for explainers video series and apps. But what I really love to do as a side project is make funny and fun animations as well as stickers that help people smile, and allow them to communicate their ideas."

"I have a family in Taiwan and started with fine art school in my early years. I was always drawn to drawing but I began to be stymied in a strict education style. I felt like I was unable to express my personal style and personality using the traditional methods of art. Learning about fine art has certainly helped me establish the base for where I am now."

"I changed to design in college before moving in New York for grad school. That's when I began experimenting with animations and digital art. Animation provided me with the capability to mix animation and motion to tell stories in a dynamic method. I really enjoyed learning how I could transform still images into motion."

"Collaboration/teamwork is one of the keys I evaluate a lot. I like how individuals spark ideas together in the team, and also believe that the best work is usually built by a group of people with diverse strengths and skills.
The day-to-day life of I'm not going to stop making things that keep me inspired. When not designing or making motion-based graphics, I'll be found making a messy mess around the house (lots in cooking) as well as making craft projects. I frequently visit Brooklyn market and try my hand on various food items at my home. There is a world full of amazing things. I am a sucker to travel and explore different cultures, new communities, as well as innovative art."
