About me

hi there. thanks for stopping by. i'm erik c. larson and i am a freelance animator/designer/editor/creative & art director/compositor/human so if you like what you see, drop me a line and let's work together.

my long story short... i use a compute to create things. i started pushing buttons on computers since the mid 1970s and have always been infatuated with creating art with a computer. starting with the commodore 64 and a texas instrument 99/4a computers and working my way up to todays' systems, i navigate my way through the ever changing technology landscape. after getting my masters degree from nyu in digital imaging and design, i have primarily been focused on commercial and network broadcast. i have been a part of multiple promaxbda award winning teams and my collaborative work has garnered accolades from across the globe. i also taught at nyu and city university of new york (cuny).
