About Zach Garner

For 18 years, I\'ve been a designer specializing in graphics, web, and user interfaces. I\'ve contributed to prominent sectors such as big-tech, Casino and Gaming, hospitality, fashion, pharmaceuticals, and education. I\'ve collaborated with top design firms like DDB, BBDO, and freelanced with Big Spaceship, Razorfish, Mirrorball, and Great Jakes. My expertise spans websites, branding, motion graphics, event materials, displays, and interactive learning. Notable clients include Caesars, Google, IBM, and University of Pennsylvania, among others.When I’m not designing, I perform stand-up and create comedic videos. I’ve created a commercial, music videos, and comedy sketches. These productions have been made in partnership with Parlay Studios. In these videos, my role ranges from producer, director, writer, actor, set designer, and editor. Oftentimes, I juggle multiple hats. During the pandemic, I created a commercial for Work Wonnie, business casual pajamas. I wrote, produced, directed, acted and edited this commercial. I also designed the brand identity and managed the social media launch. Since its release, the commercial has been featured on numerous news outlets and tv shows such as Rachel Ray. By creating videos, I have learned to manage the production schedule, budget, and coordinate with the cast and crew. I love developing an idea from a quick note sketched on a piece of paper into a video that can be seen by everyone.
