I create graphics, 2D animations, 3D modeling, 3D animations, photography and film, as well as video editing. I&#8217;m the all-rounder of creative content who aims to amplify and give visual leverage to media releases and gain more media coverage for our researchers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tell us about your journey to Flinders.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I have been in the E-learning industry for most of my career in South Africa, making learning easier and more accessible with visual aids. I worked for different companies, including LabXchange (an initiative by Harvard Online) to develop online science education through creating videos, animations, interactives and laboratory simulations.<\/p>\n<p>I immigrated to Adelaide and entered into the industry of science communication, working with Animate Your Science to bring research to life with animation. After just over a year, I have made my way to Flinders University and can&#8217;t wait to dive into more research and help bring it to life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s your favourite part about your job?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I meet amazing people at Flinders, get to know what they&#8217;re working on and learn all sorts of new and interesting things that have just been discovered, found or how parts of the body work. I then have the privilege to help tell that story visually through any of the different visual mediums that I work with.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What does a typical day look like for you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t really have a typical day, and that&#8217;s one of the things I love about what I do. The content is never the same, the tasks are never the same and each time I need to think about what what can make the research appear more exciting, bring it to life and give it the recognition it deserves.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s a fun fact about you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I used to lead the administration team behind a small concert in Mozambique every year called STRAB, which\u00a0 featured blues, rock and other genres of music. I was basically surviving off 4 hours of sleep, music and scuba diving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Media and Communications team has expanded its 2D and 3D digital image capabilities with the recent introduction of Traci Klarenbeek, who brings a wealth of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4182,"featured_media":22406,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[55563,59399,32135,57368,56621],"tags":[59616,59614,59615],"class_list":["post-22394","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-around-campus","category-chief-of-staff","category-fearless","category-in-touch-with","category-media","tag-digital-media-advisor","tag-media-communications","tag-traci-klarenbeek"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>In touch with ...
