About Drysen Carsten

Key Points: • Over a decade in the creative video industry • Co-founder and creative director of Hyperfocus Motion • Host of FrameOne podcast • Public speaker with over a decade of emcee and speaking experience. • Driven by a commitment to act decisively, listen intently, and aim high • Embraces calculated risks and trusts instincts • Upholds a strong sense of responsibility and integrity • Husband & father of 3 young kids With over a decade-long footprint in the creative, video, and animation industry, I have followed my entrepreneurial spirit to start several companies, hone my creative craft, and speak around the country. As the co-founder and creative director of Hyperfocus Motion, I create the voice of projects putting the future in motion. Simultaneously, I explore the minds of creative giants as the host of FrameOne, a podcast dedicated to uncovering the success stories behind creative industry leaders. Raised on a family-owned cattle, hog, corn, and soybean farm, my roots have instilled a robust work ethic and a unique perspective that I bring to my creative ventures. This background laid the groundwork for my involvement in nationally aired documentaries, chronicling the journeys of world-record corn grower David Hula, former world-record soybean grower Randy Dowdy, as they transformed a farm in Omaha. As a seasoned public speaker, I have honed my craft through a decade-long career as a wedding emcee. My speaking engagements have also taken me to prominent platforms such Mograph.com as both a feature and a guest host, along with several podcasts. A career highlight was steering the fireside chats at Camp Mograph 2023, engaging in thought-provoking conversations with creative strategist David Levine from NASA and award-winning director Elyse Kelly from Neon Zoo. In everything I do, I am guided by a drive to act decisively, listen intently, and aim for the stars. I embrace calculated risks, trust my instincts, and uphold a strong sense of responsibility and integrity, ensuring those involved are supported and the right thing is always done. I am eager to connect and explore potential speaking collaborations that align with my skills and experiences.
