Who the Fu*k is Onah?

I am a motion Designer

My name is Godwin, Victor Daberechukwu Onah, AKA Chester. Chester wasn’t really my birth name but I was called that when I was in Primary school because I was good at football. I loved the name and decided to incorporate it as part of me.

I studied Medical Microbiology at a private University In Enugu state Nigeria. I Loved the course but I figured that wasn’t my calling. I loved creating animations, cartoons and doing graphic designs with Photoshop. 

Over the years I started to use photoshop for image manipulation. Did that for 3 years while I was nearing the end of my Degree program. I learnt about Adobe After Effects which changed everything. It wasn’t quite long before I started creating personal project. I loved the feeling that I could sit for hours without eating and just creating animations. I learnt about freelancing sites like Upwork and fiverr. I registered and started freelancing. I was able to gain lots of experiences working remotely with people of different races, nationality and Timezone.

I also Have Courses and host classes twice in a year for people looking to learn Motion design, Video editing and animation which most of these classes are real-time classes via zoom. This has helped me learn how to be a Manager, tutoring different classes of people. I have learnt time management and communication management.

I also have Apprentices who did exceptionally well during the courses, I retain them and work with them, eg, if i am hired by an Agency etc.

Being a motion Designer means alot. You must have experience with Graphics design to start with, Understand Color Theories, Know the 12 principles of animation. and if you are going into Character design, this is where it gets more intresting and difficult. Being a motion designer also gives you an edge over conventional Video editors. Not only are you going to be the best video Editor, but because you know alot of design Principles that an ordinary Video editor dont possess.
