Hey there, I’m Earl Aspiras, and this is Philler Works.
I’m a motion designer based in Toronto with 6+ years of experience in motion graphics, animation, videography, and illustration. I graduated from the York University-Sheridan College Graphic Design program with a Bachelor of Design Honours Degree, and currently working as a freelancer for hire. Growing up, I spent too much time doodling maps & drawing comics, watching TV & movies, and surfing the early internet. These days I’m sketching ideas on paper, picking apart VFX & animations, and finding inspiration from anything that moves on screen. Some of my biggest inspirations are Olly Moss, Paula Scher, Magritte, and the folks at Art of the Title.If you need a designer for your motion graphic project, or if you just want to talk about title sequences and maps, get in touch!
