Julie Craft is one of the founders of a Detroit based artist collective called Boxfort. Started as a coworking space for like minded designers and friends, their group helps each other to grow and become better artists. Despite being individual freelancers, the Boxfort group often works together or collaborates when they can, including this year's titles for Half Rez.
Julie is a freelance motion designer and animator with over 15 years of experience. Recently much of her time has been focused on designing, developing, and animating user interfaces for upcoming electric vehicles. Her work also includes large screen trade show experiences, including automotive reveals for Ford, Toyota, and Lexus at the Detroit, New York, and Toronto auto shows. Over the last 5+ years she has helped lead and grow the Detroit community by running her monthly Mograph Mondays events. These events help people meet and collaborate, as well as learn through presentations by local artists. In addition to the Detroit events, Mograph Mondays has new chapters starting in other Michigan cities (Lansing, Grand Rapids) as well as Cleveland, Ohio and Ottawa, Ontario.
