Animated Marketing

I run a business creating animated marketing ads for small companies to connect with their customers through engaging storytelling.

 

 
 

ML Toys needed to bring excitement and fun to their marketing for their ride-on-car modification parts. My strategy was to target semi-handy dads who want to connect with their kids by working on a car together.

This series of comedy Ads were animated using live audio taken from the iHeart radio show: The Woody Show.

Chris Silvestre

My name is Chris Silvestre and I am an Artist and a Storyteller that loves to use visual mediums to make an emotional connection with people.

I graduated from Cartoon College; The Art Institute of Philadelphia, specializing in Animation, where I studied classic hand drawn animation as well as 3D animation.  I interned for MTV on the show Daria.

After graduation I began drawing caricatures at the local theme park. Next, I moved on to draw and render graphics and animation for training software. During this time I animated personal projects sending them to anyone in the industry that I could.

I landed my first full time job as an animator for iCaramba communications working with John Leguizamo on the first Latino Animated cartoon “La Familia” later renamed Lugar Heights. In time I moved on to direct the series for MTV tr3s.

Next, I worked on the Sesame Workshop/Cartoon Pizza series, Pinky Dinky Doo. I’ve since worked on animated projects for clients such as iHeart radio.

To become a more well rounded artist, I always varied the industries I have worked in. I have worked as Interactive Art Director in the Advertising Industry. I’ve also built and managed teams to develop training software for the medical device industry all while creating personal and client animated entertainment.

For 3 years at Propellor Communications, I grew a production team from just myself to a team of 8, including programmers, 3d animators, video editors, and graphic designers.

Currently I am working as a Project Technical Lead/ UI/UX Designer with ETS, the world's largest private nonprofit educational testing and assessment organization. I also work on my own apps, books, cartoons and taking on Animated Videos for small businesses.
