Hey Harc Creative!
My name is Lebon Siu.
I’m a Motion Designer based in Vancouver.
I design high-concept digital experiences for businesses, and bring a unique perspective to design through my background in film and video.
Before I was a motion designer, I worked in music video production as a resident videographer and content creator. I’ve spent countless hours working with music video directors to help bring their stories to life, from designing their pitch decks, to filming on set, to editing their music videos.
Today, I bring my love of storytelling to design, and take influence in film, art, music and design. I believe in using the power of narrative to create emotional connections between business and consumer, and bring with me a multitude of technical skills that can elevate your projects above the rest.

Illustration
I am well-versed in softwares such as XD, Photoshop, Illustrator and Figma, and often find myself combining my illustration skills with design.

I am a quick learner when it comes to learning new platforms. I have experience in online visual builders such as Shopify, Unbounce, Ceros, WordPress, and Flexitive. I'm also currently learning webflow.
Portfolio

You can’t leave a tea party
without a cup of tea, you know?
Leaving so soon? I feel like we’ve barely scratched the surface! I haven’t had a chance to tell you about my smokey bear obsession, my love for poutine, or my bad genre film collection!
If you have a project for me or simply want to get to know me better, why don’t you invite me out for a cup of tea?
