An expressive portrait of myself.

Making my mark—one creation at a time.

*  Created for Design & Visual Communications high school CTE program

Below is a list of every project by another person or group which I had the opportunity to collaborate on—because if there’s anything better than one creative brain, it’s two.

A portrait of me using my MacBook and iPad to work on animation for an upcoming short film— Wait, who said that?

My name is Carter Janik, and I animate, design, and create things for the enjoyment of all.

I founded StudioCRJ in 2019 as a means of sharing my ever-growing animation talents with my family, my friends, and the world. I didn’t consider myself very artistic back at age 11, but I wanted to try my hand at learning Adobe Animate and making animated videos for my YouTube channel anyway—because “what’s life without taking a few risks once in a while?”Six years later, and I’m now a high school senior with skills in many fields of design and visual communications; numerous accolades, including a gold medal in Advertising Design from the 2023 SkillsUSA National Leadership & Skills Conference; and a bright future ahead of me at the Massachusetts College of Art and Design and beyond.But if anything’s remained constant over the years, it’s my determination to keep improving and keep making my mark.
