About Andrew Czudak

I\'m a creative & technology generalist with over a decade of experience in creative video production, particularly in motion graphics and video editing. I thrive on variety, and I’m just as comfortable in front of a computer as I am behind it. Want me to come up with an ad campaign for your product? No problem. Write a 30-second spot? Show me into the writer’s room. But wait, your computer’s causing trouble? The server’s down? I’m on the case. Shoot a photo? Direct a video? Fix a TV, entertain a child, backup data, speed up the network, animate a logo? Ready when you are.With my breadth of skills and experience, I’m confident I can make a positive impact on any project and in any environment. Running a small team? I can juggle a variety of hats and responsibilities. Part of a big business? I can use my cross-disciplinary knowledge to facilitate understanding and collaboration within the team or with external contractors. And if I come across something I can’t handle, you can bet that with the professional network I’ve built up over the years, I can absolutely find the right person for the task. And while that’s happening, I’m definitely taking notes!One day I’m going to write a children’s book or two. I’d also like to develop a mobile app, and maybe even make my own video game! I’ve got hopes and dreams, and every passion I pursue provides me with more experience I can use to help make your projects that much better. So who am I? I’m Andrew. I’m friendly and I’m helpful. Let’s talk!
