About Me

Hi, my name is Gavin Prather. I graduated from the University of Maryland Baltimore County with a bachelor's degree in fine arts and a concentration in animation. Despite concentrating in animation, I have done many works outside of traditional animation, including many types of video projects and graphic design. â€‹

​

I returned to UMBC from October 2021 to January 2023 as the Creative and Media Specialist for the Athletic Department. In that position, I created content for all our varsity athletics programs as well as our main department's social media account. I also helped with game day operations, game videography, and created content for the arena screen during volleyball and basketball games. I also function as the SID for baseball cross country, and track and field on top of my responsibilities producing content.

​

In March of 2023, I started my tenure at Creosote Affects as a Junior Multi-Media Designer. At Creosote, I produce videos and social media content for a variety of private schools and colleges.

​​After my time at Creosote Affects, I joined the creative team at WebMechanix in June 2024. While on the team, I produced short form video ads for several WebMechanix clients, including Amazon Photos. 

​

I also have a strong interest in music, both playing instruments and finding ways to incorporate music into my works as well. I'm self taught playing the drums and guitar, with some ability to bass and piano. Just don't ask me to sing.
