I'm Eddie - Animation Director & department head, Motion & Creative Director, and the guy who made YouTube's very first TikTok video when they launched their @youtube account.

15 years of making things people actually want to watch. Motion graphics, VFX, and video production at advertising and marketing agencies, working with everyone from streaming giants to Fortune 500s to a company that makes really good dog toys.

At We Are Social, I helped lead the @supermariomovie social media campaign for Universal and launched YouTube's TikTok presence while managing their social media content on all other platforms (hundreds of video posts each month).

At GLOW, I ran social content for HBO (Diego Maradona, Mrs Fletcher), AppleTV (Ted Lasso, Mythic Quest, Little America), and Showtime (Shameless, Black Monday).

High volume, high visibility, tight timelines.

At BARK, I created custom marketing content for their themed subscription boxes every month, partnering with IP giants on Harry Potter pups, Stranger Things squeaky toys, Spider-Man fetch balls. When BARK went public, I led the animation effort that lit up Times Square, MSG, and the Nasdaq exchange floor. Nothing says "we've made it" like your animations playing while a company rings the bell.

Most recently, I led the animation department at Malka Media, where we made enterprise clients look anything but corporate—AWS campaigns, Merck brand videos that actually connect with humans, Deloitte spots with VFX that make people stop mid-scroll. I also built a custom AI-powered workflow system that generates Intuit's educational content at scale.

Here's what matters: I don't just direct creative, I've done the work. Motion design, VFX, compositing, custom AI tools, you name it. When I lead teams and talk to clients, it's from real experience, not theory. I can jump between After Effects and executive presentations, keeping projects moving and people motivated.

Let's build something together.
