WELCOME
8BEAT is the work of Art/ Creative DirectorCarlos Cotte
︎︎︎
I’m a multidisciplinary Creative Director, Motion Designer, and Visual Storyteller with 20+ years of experience shaping brands, launching content, and leading award-winning creative across TV, digital, and experiential platforms.
Half of my career has been spent inside global networks and studios like Discovery, HBO, NBCUniversal, and Viacom. The other half? As a trusted creative partner and freelancer for clients including Apple Music and Skechers. I’ve led everything from animated docuseries and brand launches to political campaigns and AR installations.
Whether directing a team or getting hands-on with motion, design, or storytelling, I bring a deep respect for the craft, the audience, and the idea. I believe great creative starts with listening, thrives on research, and succeeds through collaboration.
I’m open to freelance gigs and full-time roles — especially with teams who are curious about the evolving intersection of design, technology, and storytelling.
Let’s build something that resonates.
