The filmmaking industry is a vast arena full of a variety of work. Our guest today has cut his teeth creating commercials and music videos in Charlotte, NC & around the southeast. In fact he is #1 in Charlotte for production of music videos. So any musicians out there? Hit him up.
Commonly referred to as "theanimist" in filmmaking circles and social media, Ethan also works as an animator and has produced animation content for a variety of clients, like the college football Belk Bowl. Somehow he also finds time to host a podcast, Video + Company Podcast, that we highly recommend checking out. You might even find a companion episode with us over on his podcast.
So without further delay, please enjoy this chat with Ethan Neville!
