Share
Morpheyes Studio is a Deaf-led creative production studio based in Rochester, NY. Deaf-led creative production studio @ NTID.
Next up in sharing their experiences as Creative Apprentices for Morpheyes this past summer is Leonard Faini! Check out his video to see what he told us about working with Morpheyes.
Descriptive Transcript: Video opens on Leonard Faini (he/him), a Deaf person with a buzzcut wearing a light blue polo and a bracelet depicting the Tanzanian flag. He sits on a chair in front of a black curtain and signs in ASL.
“One word for Morpheyes? Creative!” His name appears above him in white text with an orange square graphic. “My name is Leonard. I’m majoring in New Media Design. I’m from Tanzania in eastern Africa. My role at Morpheyes is Creative Apprentice.
Why work at Morpheyes? Because Morpheyes offers accessible work opportunities for Deaf and Hard of Hearing people. They also offer co-ops. So I decided to work here.
Did Morpheyes offer something unique? Yes. Everyday I go to work and learn from new experiences, things I never learned before.
If I went back in time, what would I do? I would develop more new skills in different areas, so that when I’m at Morpheyes, I can storyboard on a Wacom device, not in Illustrator or Freeform.
What is my hope for Morpheyes in the future? My hope for Morpheyes is that they keep building, and grow to be as big as companies like Warner Bros, Marvel, DC, Pixar, and many others.”
Leonard fades as the video closes out with the Morpheyes motion logo of an abstract eye and lashes.
