ABOUT ME
Ted Hanik
I cut my teeth animating on The Simpsons, learning the fundamentals that still drive my work: plan well, execute with precision, and never settle for “good enough.”
Today, I blend 2D, 3D, motion graphics, and video production to create everything from game trailers to explainer videos to big-screen promos. I manage projects end-to-end — concept, design, filming, editing — delivering work that’s clean, polished, and on time.
I understand both the creative and business side, having built brand content, sales funnels, and campaigns that drive clicks, conversions, and loyalty.
Whether it’s strategy, hands-on production, or mentoring, I thrive on solving challenges and delivering results that stand out.
Professional Testimonials
Ted knows motion! This guy can animate just about anything! Our team at MobilityWare hired him for several video ads, and what he delivered was always above expectations. From concept to completion, Ted can jump into any stage of the project and give 110% no matter what the challenge. Needless to say, He has a great attitude and work ethic.
Bimal Gorajia
Designer at MobilityWare
Ted is a great addition to any team as he's personable, creative and is genuinely passion about what he does. He's very artistic and can easily bring your idea (or random thought) to life! He's very detail oriented. It was a pleasure working to work with him.
Brittany Charnley
Director of Marketing at Friends Christian School
Ted is an expert in his field. I had the pleasure of working with Ted during his time at Laserfiche as the Lead Multimedia Designer. He has a high level of organizational skills and the ability to create excellent work within deadlines. I was particularly impressed by the way he was able to take the simplest sketches and turn them into expertly crafted animations with little to no direction. In addition to his wide range of technical skills, Ted is also a great teacher and is very clear and concise when explaining concepts, ideas, or processes. Ted is a talented artist, creative thinker, and a valuable addition to any team he is a part of.
Cindy Man
Design Manager at Inspire
I initially worked with Ted building out e-learning courses in IBM. During that time he proved to be incredibly helpful and knowledgeable and was excellent in communicating his ideas. Although Ted is highly talented as a graphic artist he is an inspiration and never ceases to learn and explore new areas to better his skills. I miss his positive attitude, feedback and patience on our previous team. It would be great to work with him again.
Gaye Watanabe
The Healing Gift
I've worked with Ted since 2004 and I would highly recommend him. We worked together on a media team at FileNet and IBM as well as other projects I've produced. He's a very talented artist with a wide range of skills. Whether it's storyboarding a scene for a shoot, creating an animation or shooting video, Ted is an outstanding talent to work with. I look forward to future collaborations with Ted!
