Adobe UX Internships

As an intern at Adobe Inc., I collaborated with researchers, engineers and animators to design and prototype advanced animation interfaces for After Effects and an AI-driven motion graphics tool shipped in Adobe Express.

Institution

Adobe Inc.

Area of Interest

User Experience Design

Collaborators

John Nelson & Seth Walker

I completed two consecutive UX/UI internships (2022–2023) in the Research organization at Adobe Inc., focused on animation and AI-driven design tools. In 2022, I collaborated with researchers, engineers, and animators to design a new Adobe After Effects feature, conducting UX research with advanced users, prototyping wireframes, and pitching the concept division-wide; the project was extended and later implemented after my internship. In 2023, I returned to co-design experimental interfaces exploring the intersection of AI and motion graphics, presenting functional prototypes to Adobe Research and at the intern showcase. This work went on to influence an established feature called "Animate All" within Adobe Express, continuing beyond my internship.

I collaborated with Principal Scientist, John Nelson, and a diverse team of engineers, software developers, designers, and animation experts to design a new feature for Adobe After Effects (AE). Our design work is confidential, but I had the pleasure of conducting UX research, interviewing AE users to prototype an intuitive animation feature, maximizing value for advanced target users. I prototyped and presented wireframes for this feature to the cross-functional team, and pitched the final product division-wide to research colleagues. My internship was then extended to further develop this product. John Nelson continued this project after my internship ended, implementing some of our design concepts in After Effects.
