I'm jialu huang,

an aspiring designer based in Melbourne. My design journey is fueled by a deep passion for content creation and an unyielding curiosity about how design can connect with audiences on an impactful level.

I specialize in exploring and crafting visual identities, motion graphics, animation, and editorial design.

I believe that every project has its unique story, waiting to be told in the most engaging way possible. I am passionate about bringing these stories to life, creating designs that leave a lasting impression and evoke a meaningful response from viewers.

Music Video - HOW DO I GET IT

This project delves into the visual worlds conveyed by music, interpreting its emotional depth as a creative foundation.

Through innovative multimedia effects, I blend aesthetics and storytelling within a motion graphic piece, inviting viewers—especially non-musicians—to connect with music on a deeper, more intuitive level through visual interpretation. In developing this work, I researched the genre’s typical visual symbols, crafting a fresh, unique visual language that aligns with and reimagines its original aesthetic.

Beyond merely capturing the existing musical world, this project seeks to transcend conventions, creating an immersive visual experience rich in emotion and atmosphere.
