Erik Van Der Wilden

A willingness to try most anything, that’s how I got here. Years ago I started in front of the camera. My love of acting morphed into an obsession with how a story unfolds. I wanted to be an artist who influenced the outcome. I decided then to become an editor. Being a highly inquisitive person, the realm of editorial and how effects were integrated also grabbed my attention.

Eventually, my professional path led me to become a co-founder of, and former Director of Production for, nailgun*. Together with Michael Waldron (SVP Creative Director Art + Design for Nickelodeon and TV Land), we built a nurturing and creative environment that let many developing artists thrive. nailgun* was an award winning NYC motion graphics boutique that served broadcast and commercial clients for 10 years.

Today, either as a freelance creative visual editor or as a senior member of a creative agency, I bring a meticulousness and personal investment to my work. I don’t know how to give any less than 100%. Exhaustive in my search for better solutions, I am a creative MacGyver. I have a passion to improvise and explore, develop, and problem solve within a team of equally curious creatives.
