‘The Water Cycle’ by Levi DeMatteo

I grew up in Tarrytown, NY, where I spent most of my free time drawing pictures and playing in bands. At 18, I moved to Chicago to pursue a degree in illustration at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. However, my attention quickly shifted to video post-production and sound design two semesters in. I spent the remainder of my college career making wacky art films for my classes while serving as a PA and editor’s assistant on the side for various internships. 

Today, I am a Chicago-based creator/editor whose work spans the gamut between the commercial and the artsy/experimental, but centers around visual storytelling. I work with brands, bands, and content creators of all sorts to create quality content with exceptional appeal, from merch design to album artworks, commercials, original audio compositions, and so much more. 

When I am not making art, I enjoy cycling, climbing trees, cooking, attending metal concerts, and watching cartoons.
