Lamont Wayne
Artist, Designer, and animator in Washington, DC
After studying animation at the Savannah College of Art and Design, I unexpectedly found myself in the business world, working for companies like YellowBook and Genworth Financial. That blend of business savvy and creative training shaped me into the kind of indie animator built for today's fast-moving, content-driven digital landscape.
Social media has transformed how we engage with customers. It’s no longer just ads—it’s storytelling. Brands need content that entertains, informs, and inspires action. That’s where I come in.
I create high-quality animated videos tailored for websites, blogs, and every major platform—YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, and more. My strength lies in speaking both languages: understanding your business goals while delivering standout creative that makes your brand memorable.
Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to work with major brands including Samsung, The Cheesecake Factory, Staples, Nivea, Adobe, Microsoft, HubSpot, IWC Schaffhausen, Kuehne + Nagel, Lee Hecht Harrison, Airborn, and Sony/ATV Music Publishing. My animation credits include:
Beta tester and production partner for the award-winning Vyond (formerly GoAnimate)
Character animator for Plug.DJ, Elephant Learning Math Academy, and Surprise.com
Animator for YouTube creators like Team Balmert and music videos like Gunna & Young Thug’s “Three Headed Snake”
Segment animator for To Be Us: To Work—winner of “Best of Film” at the International Black Film Festival
Director of the CDC’s award-winning KABI Chronicles motion comic (HHS Innovates award)
My work has appeared on The Colbert Report, at TEDx UTK, New York Fashion Week, and San Diego Comic-Con. I’ve been named a “Filmmaker to Watch” by Hollywood Shorts, a top animation provider on Envato Studio, and featured on platforms like Wooshii and Fullscreen.
Currently, I’m listed on Ava DuVernay’s ArrayCrew, recently wrapped as an animator on the feature film Maxxie LaWow, and I collaborate with LinkedIn influencer Louis Ceaser on “Launch Your Story,” a project creating animated video resumes for professionals.
Whether you need a scroll-stopping TikTok, an animated explainer, or a full campaign across platforms—I’m ready to help bring your story to life.
