ABOUT
Fredric Altman
Creative Director • Los Angeles, CA
Over ten years directing trailers, campaigns, and narrative content for some of the most demanding franchises in gaming and entertainment. Five of those years spent inside Square Enix, where I shipped 100+ assets across Final Fantasy and the wider portfolio. Work outside that: Call of Duty, The Witcher, Marvel's Avengers, Metal Gear Solid, Shadow of War, Apple Arcade, Porsche, Skydance.
Campaign creative is compression. Take the thing that took 200 people five years to build, and convey why it matters in 90 seconds. I've been doing that for a decade, mostly for franchises where the fans already have opinions.
Currently open to creative direction engagements, agency leadership roles, fractional CD work, and select freelance. Best for launch campaigns, franchise refreshes, and trailer-led brand work.
