About
Hi, hello. I'm Conrad McLeod (pronounced McLoud)
I am a Visual Designer based in New York.
Over the past 15 years, I've worked with a wide variety of clients, studios and ad agencies. I've helped create visuals across many different surfaces, from animated billboards and print campaigns, to social media AR effects, to HMD mixed reality experiences,
Most recently, for the past two years, I have been working hard under the Creative Engineering division at Meta (via Magnit), working closely with art directors, engineers, and technical artists to create prototypical mixed-reality experiences for head mounted displays - work which can not be shared because of NDAs.
I'm an artist and designer in New York. Over the past 15 years I've had the good fortune of working with many different studios, agencies and client on a wide range of motion design and mixed reality projects. Most recently I've been contracting as Visual Designer at Meta with the Creative Engineering team (2022-2024) where I helped design and prototype around 30 NDA mixed reality (or spatial computing(?)) projects for head mounted displays (Quest 2, Quest Pro, and Quest 3), as well as some prototypes for Instagram, and design assets for Connect conferences. Prior to that, I was permalancing at Mill+, the Mill's Emerging Technology department (2017-2021) where I helped build AR experiences for clients such as HBO, Netflix, Taylor Swift, Louis Vuitton, Tate Britain, Chanel, among others. Currently available for freelance hire.

Helped animate logo suite for Google's Apps for Work in 2012(?)

Animated the Google Android and end tag cell phones in Sprint commercial campaigns
Hi, I'm Conrad McLeod (pronounced McLoud) I'm a Visual Designer Most recently (2021-2024) I have been working with the Creative Engineering department at Meta on a wide range of NDA mixed-reality (... or spatial computing) experiences for head mounted displays, as well as prototypes for Instagram, and occasionally helping with minor visual bits and bobs for Meta's conferences. Prior to that, for several years I was perma-lancing at Mill+, the Mill's Emerging Technology department, helping create social augmented reality experiences. I worked closely with developers and art directors to complete around 50 AR projects for clients such as HBO, Netflix, BBC, MAC Cosmetics, Taylor Swift, and Warner Brothers among others. Before that I freelanced around for nearly a decade, mostly on motion design for various ad agencies, studios, and directly with clients. When not at the computer, I'm either medium-to-long distance running or slow-biking or walking my dog Koji around New York City. 😌
