SCHOOL OF VISUAL ARTS (SVA)
Meitar Almog is a NYC based graphic designer from Tel Aviv. She is currently a senior at SVA, focusing on motion graphics. Meitar likes expressive illustrations, short stories, YouTube videos about astronomy, and cherry tomatoes. She likes thinking about design through the lens of animation. Motion graphics deepened her idea of graphic design and presented her with the opportunity to amplify her pieces with dimension, illustration, sound design, and storytelling. Meitar’s work may be found @MeitarAlmog (ig) and at his website-meitar.me. You can also find her on a bench gazing at the Hudson River.
