FULL STACK AGENCY VET
Art Director, Motion Designer & Editor.
Plug-and-play creative made for fast-moving teams.
Integrated 2D/3D work for product launches, brand films, and entertainment
BROUGHT IN EARLY. STAYS ON BRIEF.
The motion partner agencies and brands call before they're on the ropes.
Involved early in the process, I help shape the creative direction so the project stays on track from concept through delivery. No last-minute scrambles, no impossible turnarounds, no scope explosions. In short, I’m around to keep things rolling smoothly, spotting the bumps before they become roadblocks.
Agencies rely on me as a trusted creative extension, diving into client work as if it were my own. For studios, I bring senior motion thinking right from day one, keeping projects sharp and focused. For direct clients and product brands, it's creative firepower without any of the agency bloat.
The work lands better when the brief is right from the start. That's where I come in.
"I would work with Jerry again in a heartbeat. Jerry is a perfectionist, and it shows in the work he produces. His animation skills are top-notch, and he always meets our deadlines. His demeanor is very laid back which makes working with him incredibly easy. I will definitely look to Jerry for future projects!" - Ryan Holt, No Limits Multimedia
STRAIGHTFORWARD, START TO FINISH
It starts with a brief. Send over what you're working on, and I'll let you know if it's a good fit. If it is, we get on a call to align on scope, timeline, and creative direction before anything starts.
From there, the engagement fits the project. Solo for focused, shorter work, scaled up for mid-sized productions, or embedded for extended contracts that need a consistent creative presence over time. Flexible by design, senior creative either way.
"Jerry is as intuitive and creative as he is tech savvy. I really loved seeing my ideas come to life. Jerry is an excellent animator and is good at building the right expectations for the job/timeframe at hand. I always appreciated that!" - Molly Porter, Marketing Director, Seyfarth Shaw
