Janae Motley is a May 2023 Tisch School of the Arts graduate. Animation became a clear career path for her at an early age. Growing up, she spent most of her weekends enjoying classics such as Courage the Cowardly Dog and The Mighty B!.

She spent most of her senior year finishing Zach's Day Out, and she couldn't be happier with the finished film.

She regrets nothing, except the one instance where she ate two Wendy’s burgers, nuggets, and fries; Dunkin Donuts; and drank soda all in one night.

Her goals include freelance animation, character and background design, storyboarding for cartoons and anime, writing novels, and eventually starting her own studio.
