Hi. I’m Drysen.

I help brands explain what they do, why it matters, and why people should care. Whether it’s a product walkthrough, a hype video, or a full brand story, I design 2D & 3D animations that make customers say,

“Ohhh… I want that.”

I believe every good animation should do three things:

1. Be instantly understanable. Your message shouldn’t be a puzzle to solve

2. Be fun to watch. If people enjoy it, they’ll remember it

3. Make your brand look better than it did yesterday.

I help strong brands communicate with more personality, clarity, and confidence. When your message needs to hit harder, feel sharper, or resonate deeper, that’s where I come in.

Since 2011, I’ve worked across animation, video production, and creative direction, building everything from nationally-aired documentaries to conference visuals, explainers, product videos, and more.

Outside of client work, I’m a husband, dad, volunteer firefighter, coffee addict, snowboarder, and maker. I live just outside Sioux Falls, SD, and for over a decade I’ve helped brands across the country (and occasionally around the world) tell stories that connect. From local fire departments to multibillion-dollar global companies, I’ve been lucky to partner with teams of every shape and size.

I make cool stuff IRL too.

As a hobby, I love finding ways to bring my digital art skills into the real world. It keeps me inspired, sharp, and endlessly curious. Plus, it’s fun to give gifts that came straight from my brain.

If you’re interested in one of my small-batch creations, (which were crafted with way too much attention to detail) you can support my hobby and browse my current lineup here:
