Recently, Kinetic Imaging alumna, Rian Moses-Hedrick (B.F.A. ’10), was featured in Style Weekly’s Top 40 Under 40 for 2024! Since graduating from Kinetic Imaging in, Rian co-created HearRVA alongside her husband–a platform that brings together Richmond’s music-loving community closer to local musicians in fresh and creative ways. She also launched a video-podcast series under HearRVA called Liner Notes, designing the stop-motion animation pop-ups and creating the overall style of the series herself. Rian also showcases her incredible skills in video, sound, and animation on a variety of other music projects!.
“Going through the KI program taught me the value of experimenting and stepping out of my comfort zone. I came in thinking I’d become a specific type of animator, but thanks to my amazing professors, Pamela Turner and Bob Kaputof, I was pushed to explore new directions. That experience opened me up to learning new skills and staying adaptable even after graduation.” – Rian Moses-Hedrick
