About

William Bredbeck lives in Connecticut, USA and is the father of two amazing little girls. He is passionate about mentoring creative people and making great things!

He got his BFA from Parsons School of Design in NYC.

He was the lead animator for the Henry and June segments of the 90’s Nickelodeon show “KABLAM!”

After a brief stint making oil paintings and climbing mountains in Alaska, and working on a 160-foot schooner, he started making video games in NYC. He made games with This is Pop for Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, Adult Swim, and many adver-games, before taking a job as Art Director at Arkadium.

Eventually advancing to Senior Director of Design at Arkadium, where he managed design teams in New York, Ukraine, and Toronto. His team's products, such as Microsoft Solitaire and U.B. Funkeys, reached (and continue to reach) many millions of users every day.

After Arkadium William became very interested in using his super powers to make something with a positive effect on the world. He took a job as Principal Product designer (Innovation) at Everfi. While there he helped children struggling to learn to read with WORD Force, educated teens on the dangers of prescription drug abuse, and created training courses required for all Google employees among many other projects.

William also teaches digital design at Parsons School of Design and works as a creative consultant helping companies and individuals do their very best work.

When not doing all of that stuff he can be found collecting local ecotype native seeds, painting and drawing, telling stories, playing the banjo or musical saw, and making himself laugh.

William is on a constant search to make something remarkable! Life is to short to spend it making garbage.

William does not not particularly enjoy talking about himself in the third person.
