About our studio

A great idol of ours once said something that resonates with us to the core: “Leadership is not about a title or a designation. It’s about impact, influence and inspiration.”

We celebrate life. Our brand exists for the sole purpose of sharing a passion for an industry many once considered a hobby, one in which we all saw a future. We are dedicated to helping brands who believe in the potential of this industry, a collective that relies on teamwork, dedication, and faith on believing that all is achievable. Because it is.

We are Sparkd Studios. Let’s make some memorable content.

One of our not-so-secret ingredients

Gina Greco
Creative Business Advisor

Candela is our esports expert. However, she started her creative career as an Art Director working for multiple acclaimed national brands such as Honda, Southwest Airlines, and Arco, among others. You can often find her producing esport events or leading creative for our clients while she juggles her position with Fox as an Esports Producer. We often wonder if her last name was just misspelled and they meant to call her a robot.

Candela Rebot
Founder / Chief Creative Officer

With an eye for composition and a passion for learning, it’s hard not to trust Steven with the direction of all of our visual effects projects. From Scratch to finish, he specializes in finding the purpose of a piece and making it impactful with the power of visual effects. A digital illusionist, really.
