WHAT I DO

A full creative studio in one head. From the first sketch to the final mural, I handle the whole pipeline — concept, design, animation, paint.

ART DIRECTION

Leading creative for animated features, ad campaigns and brand worlds — same playbook I ran at Disney.

CHARACTER DESIGN

Mascots, heroes and villains built for film, games, merch and the front of a cereal box.

GRAFFITI & MURALS

Live walls, gallery shows, brand activations. Spray cans are my second mouse.

ANIMATION

Frame-by-frame, 2D rigged, motion graphics — bouncy, loud, on-brand.

ABOUT STEVE

Steve Cas started bombing trains and tagging walls in the late 90s — a self-taught kid with a sketchbook and a can of Krylon. Three decades later he's an award-winning graphic designer and celebrity artist whose work has shaped campaigns, characters and animated features for some of the biggest names on the planet.

Former Art Director at Walt Disney Animation, consultant for Pixar's character department and cover artist for Marvel — Steve brings studio polish to street-level energy. He's painted murals from Brooklyn to Berlin, designed merch worn by Grammy winners, and storyboarded shorts that picked up Emmy nods.

Today he runs a one-man studio out of New York, taking on a handful of select clients a year — brands, musicians, film studios and the occasional hot-sauce label that wants something louder.

THE MAN

MEET STEVE

THIS IS
ME.

"I'm Steve Cas — born with a marker in one hand and a spray can in the other. From bombing walls in NY to art directing rooms full of Disney animators, I've spent my whole life chasing one feeling: make it loud, make it real."

"I draw cartoons. I paint murals. I customize sneakers — Jordans, AF1's, Dunks, you name it. I design characters that end up on screens, billboards and the feet of celebrities. Whatever the canvas, I bring the same energy: street first, studio second."

"If you're building something that needs to punch through the noise — a brand, a character, a one-of-one pair of kicks — let's make it together."
