I’m Nick Patten, a New York-based Creative Director, Motion Designer and Video Producer with more than 20 years of experience creating work across advertising, marketing, social, television, film and digital.

My background is rooted in motion design, animation, video production and editing, and I’ve stayed hands-on throughout my career. I’ve also led multidisciplinary creative teams, including a 10-person motion team at JPMorgan Chase and the North American Creative Studio at Smartly.

I like working right at the intersection of creative direction and execution, building the team and setting the creative direction, while still being close enough to the work to jump in.

I also teach motion design from time to time at my alma mater, Massachusetts College of Art and Design.
