"Hey! My name is Max Pava and I am a Creative Producer. I love good ideas, humans, and spreadsheets. For the past 10 years I have been producing branded and narrative films, live events as well as digital and social media content. My goals are pretty simple; make cool stuff and bring people together. On the client side I have had the pleasure of working with Nike, Adobe Creative Cloud, Snapchat, Facebook, AMC Television and more!

I don’t operate or edit, but I am familiar with all of the equipment and terminology needed to communicate with those departments effectively.
