Jackie Lay

@gopal_skumar Wow, that’s incredible! I’m honored.

@jackielay Your animations are amazing! Made me subscribe to WP!

The 40-hour workweek was made up. What if we just changed it? I made a new animation about our current burnout crisis and shrinking the workweek: washingtonpost.com/video/business…

and thank you to @jackielay for her graphics help including this beauty:

I'm a big proponent of less meetings. Especially meetings that could have been an email. This is how a four-day workweek can be achieved.

My favorite thing to learn was probably "Parkinson's Law" that states that 'work expands so as to fill the time'. Having a kid made me realize how much time I'd been wasting at work and how efficient I can be when I need to.

We are delighted to welcome the talented animator, @jackielay to the agency! Jackie worked in editorial animation creating vector illos, pencil cel animations, watercolors, stop-motion photo collages; and joins us with experience from Vox, The Atlantic, The Washington Post, & NPR

Watching @AndJustLikeThat and finally realizing I hate Carrie. She’s that toxic friend who makes everything about her. Was she always this unbearable?

the web: a visual history

A Washington Post investigation reveals that at least seven of the 10 dead after the Astroworld Festival were in one highly packed area of the audience during Travis Scott's show. washingtonpost.com/investigations…

Renders of the model were brought into #AfterEffects, where @jackielay and I combined them with annotations to create final animation sequences. And @wneff used renders of the model as a base to create the graphics for the web page.

You may have heard that all logical thinking happens in your left brain and all creative thinking takes place in your right brain, but that’s a myth. Creativity emerges when different regions of the brain talk to each other. Stream Creativity, Explained: netflix.com/mindexplained

Yay, The Mind, Explained is out! This was such a fun series to work on and such an amazing crew to work with! Very proud of the work we did.

The Formula Season 2 is out - I got to do some animation on these episodes

*Sorry* to interrupt your scroll — but you should watch my ‘Apologies, explained’ episode on @netflix now! netflix.com/explained

Vox Explained S3 has launched on Netflix! The Royalty episode is out today, which I got to do most of the graphics for. It was a joy to work with producer @xtinathornell and art director @caressemh on this one
