About
Angela Chin, initially started out in visual communications and graphic design. Over the years she's grown from role to role with her early design career giving way to (among other things) VFX and post production, all of which now inform her videomaking and design sensibilities. Staying current with the trending technologies has also given way to a demand for social media and marketing.
Given her varied skillset, she often performs multiple roles on any given project she's directing; from editor, concept artist, motion graphic designer, to photograher, and with the abilty to balance the technical with the creative and the details with the bigger picture. With a passion for the graphic and the photographic, her dream projects are ones that are a true confluence of both.
But that's not all, she also continues to work part time for the family insurance business. Being a highly driven performing person, sales and service oriented; the desire to grow and win mentally and also the ability to work with all sorts of people, being charismatic and able to build and maintain relationships.

Luckily I’ve spent my lifetime so far completely filling my brain with all this creative goodness, so I can make things that not only look cool, but also solve a problem and make things work in the real world. I pride myself in having the nerdy skills to build top notch creations online, as well as being knowledgeable in the print side of design.
I've been trained in the mysterious art of design, I'm an elite master of graphical weaponry, skilled with the cursor and deadly with the pixel.

Angela did a family photoshoot for my 3 boys and I, wow! Truly captured each of my sons and gave me much more than I could have imagined. She froze a point in time for my boys and I that I will forever treasure. Not only did she do an amazing job with the photos, she was quick, the turn around time was incredible. I will use her for all my family portraits. Thank you Angela!
