The Season of Change video series for BB&T now Truist was completely reliant on Alexa Alpern’s talent, thoughtfulness, and hard work. It was thanks to her that we were able to transform what would have been a simple series of slides and voice recordings to a fully animated experience for our teammates. All told, we went through seven rounds of development for the project, one for each episode, including script development, voice recording, storyboarding and animation, with reviews, edits, and changes for each stage. Throughout it all, Alexa was present, flexible, and responsive. The quality of her work is incredible, and she made difficult psychological concepts fun and easy to understand. The way she imagined and developed the characters was astounding to see, and she really made them relatable and accessible. I cannot thank Alexa enough for sharing her talents with my team and with all of our teammates. I would work with her again any time, and I hope it happens sooner rather than later.

K. May Alexa was wonderful to work with in designing a logo for my publishing company. She is very creative and talented and responsive to meet deadlines. I would highly recommend her and look forward to collaborating with her on future projects.
Bonsai Books Publishing Alexa is a very detailed, driven, hard working and creative animator. You come up with a topic and she will illustrate exactly what you are seeking. Her unique skills and creative passions will become simply a delight for you. I always look forward to working with Ms. Alpern.
