About Mark Banaag
I'm a senior motion designer with 9 years of experience across agency and in-house teams. I bridge creative execution and performance strategy—translating data, growth insights, and complex ideas into motion that strengthens brand and drives results across paid social and beyond.
My work spans short-form social ads, explainer videos, motion-based product content, and light live-action production—from concept and storyboard through animation, editing, and final delivery.
Let's make things move—and make things that move people.
Recommendations:
“Mark leads with both a strategic and technical mindset and what makes him exceptional is his ability to communicate that fluency to anyone in the room. Whether presenting new creative concepts to internal teams or walking external stakeholders through asset strategy, he brings the same clarity and confidence. When clients had questions about how ads rendered across devices, Mark stepped up to explain our mobile-first design philosophy in plain terms, successfully guiding their review process and earning genuine trust along the way. That same technical command carries into his production work: from managing high-priority 3D video iterations to adapting assets across platform specs and Meta safe zones, he consistently delivers with precision and speed.”
“Mark’s design skills are top tier. I have had the privilege of working with Mark on multiple teams over the course of over two years. Not only does he exude excellence in his design work, he also has a deep understanding of marketing and paid advertising channels, so his work is beautiful but it also performs... very well. In addition, he’s an incredible teammate, encourager, and communicator. I can always rely on Mark to get the job done well, on time, and with a smile on his face. If you’re reading this and are in need of design work, I could not recommend Mark more for the job.”
“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Mark for 3 years as his coach and colleague at Bamboo and I am delighted to give him my highest recommendation as a designer and collaborator. To say that Mark is an excellent motion designer with deep expertise in performance marketing is true, but only gives you part of the picture of what it’s like to work with him. He is the best kind of teammate: truly invested in the work, but also in the people he works with. Mark is a natural collaborator and communicator who elevates every project by asking the right questions. He is capable of seeing the big picture and finessing the details. In short, his hard and soft skills are off the charts. I would be overjoyed to work with Mark on anything.”
