Hi, I am Candace Hui. A Helsinki-based motion designer and animation director born in Hong Kong. My professional practice focused on visual storytelling, explainer animation, and motion design for branding and advertising campaigns.
With a passion for visualizing concepts into motion experience, my practice spans both commercial and artistic creation. My work constantly explores new mediums to visualize abstract emotions and haptic senses in a playful style. My creativity is blended into commercial work delivering messages from the brand to audiences with lively motion.
I have worked for worldwide clients and projects including YLE, KONE corporation, Arne the Alligator TV series, and art installation in M+ Contemporary Museum Hong Kong. In my artistic practice, I have directed animation short films which have been screened internationally and received awards in Hong Kong and Norway.
