Hi, I’m Liyue Bai, but you can call me Leo.

I’m a 3D and 2D motion designer based in the San Francisco Bay Area, working across branding, film and television, music, and technology. I find inspiration in the smallest, most ordinary sounds and moments, bringing them to life through dynamic motion, where every detail contributes to the story.

I’ve had the opportunity to work with clients including Disney, HBO, FOX, and more. Still, my most important clients will always be the people I cook for.
