About Spillt

Spillt is an independent motion design, animation and multidisciplinary creative production studio based in Denver, Colorado. Founded in 2006, it works across entertainment, broadcast television, streaming, commercial advertising and live experiences. Its production capabilities combine design, 2D and 3D animation, live-action directing, editorial, visual effects and strategic brand development.

The studio develops visual identities and moving-image systems for networks, programmes and brands. Its work ranges from main title sequences and documentary graphics to promotional campaigns, broadcast toolkits, logo animation and commercial films. Concept development, scriptwriting and storyboarding support projects from their initial creative direction through production and finishing.

Entertainment and brand storytelling

Spillt's entertainment work includes title design, packaging and documentary graphics for Menendez Brothers, the opening sequence and graphics package for Low Country: The Murdaugh Dynasty, and documentary title and graphics work for The Line and Meltdown. Its broadcast portfolio includes animated promotional campaigns for Rick and Morty, identity design and package animation for Toonami, and explanatory sequences for Virus Hunters.

The studio also creates commercial and brand campaigns spanning consumer products, technology, sports equipment and corporate communications. These projects bring together visual identity, animation and live-action production, with work for brands including SmartyPants, Odell Brewing, BOA Technology, Skullcandy and Deloitte. Its brand services extend to strategy, guidelines and logo design, connecting individual campaign assets with broader visual systems.

Graphics beyond the screen

Spillt's experiential practice adapts motion design to stages, events and large-format displays. Supported work includes broadcast graphics, event branding and logo animation systems for the National Emmy Awards; multi-screen visuals and stage branding for COX Automotive's 2024 NADA Show presence; and stadium display animation for the Atlanta Hawks at State Farm Arena. This work extends the studio's broadcast and brand capabilities into physical environments with multiple display formats.

More about Spillt

Leadership and creative development

  • Ed Rhine is the owner and Executive Creative Director. His professional background includes a transition from geology into animation and visual storytelling.
  • Co-founder Ryan Bramwell stepped away from the company in 2021 after 15 years; he is a historical founder rather than a current executive.
  • In July 2022, Spillt recruited Senior Creative Directors Ryan Summers and Brian Eloe to work alongside Rhine and Executive Producer Kate Herren. The expansion brought live-action directing and hybrid mixed-media production further into the studio's everyday practice.

Production approach

Spillt describes its “Seize The Play™” methodology as centered on experimentation, curiosity and structured playfulness. Its boutique core team scales with specialized freelance artists on a project basis.

Industry recognition

The report credits Spillt with a 2021 Clio Silver award, multiple Promax North America Gold and Silver awards, a Heartland Emmy Award, One Club honors, and multiple Best Motion Graphics and Post-Production Studio titles from the Art Directors Club of Denver.
