JEFF WALL
Creative Director
Specializing in Internet Marketing UI/UX Design
For the past 20 years I've helped launch startups in a creative and managerial role, from traditional print & television advertisements to high-converting online marketing campaigns.
Let's TalkMY WORK
Aside from building brands, I've produced a wide range of creatives for multiple clients including Royal Caribbean, Alienware, and Mike Tyson. My experience developing successful email & display ad campaigns became my forte, but in addition to digital art and internet marketing, I'm also an avid front-end developer that keeps up with modern HTML/CSS design requirements. I hand-code everything from scratch (unless a framework or CMS is necessary), just like this portfolio website you're looking at now. Here's a few examples of products I've designed & launched with my teams over the years — plus a few spec mockups for fun:
I also love to score original music, edit video, color grade, photograph, paint, create apparel, and render 3D scenes.
My music producer pseudonym "Katlis" has reached 125,000 plays on SoundCloud. Listen to more here.
I've shot & edited many video pieces over the last 20 years, from short films to YouTube advertisements. I generally write, shoot, edit, grade, and score everything myself.
