Excerpts from video art, animation, and video installation projects (2013-2025). Access to full projects available upon request.

Mikaela's interest in animation began in childhood; when she would create stop-motion animated films with clay figures, her brother's toy dinosaurs, and her digital blue camera. Her current body of work utilizes stop-motion techniques composited on a green-screen or modified digitally post-production; combining analog and digital methods of filmmaking. She is fond of the Internet Archive - a non-profit media library with millions of pieces royalty-free web content that can be used for art and education.

Mikaela's additional filmmaking projects include a documentary on fossil fuel divestment, promotional videos for an alien convention, music videos, and multi-channel video installations. Her senior capstone project This is my face/this is my other face (2016) was hosted at Lenzer Family Gallery and awarded honors by curators and university faculty. Her interactive video installation I'm Not Like Other Humans (2025) will be showcased at New Alliance Gallery as a part of their annual Synth-tember exhibition.
