ABOUT ME – ROBERT!

ROBERT HIRSCHI: Elementary School
Here I am, all grown up!

Hi, I’m Robert and I’ve worked in multimedia and programming for more than three decades. I’m usually one of the most low-key peeps at McGrew Studios, but this page describes what I can make for you! More about me, my specialties and my usual vfx rates here.

I worked at the Salt Lake Tribune for more than 20 years as a multimedia developer, photographer, videographer and journalist. For fun, I’ve made hundreds of crazy videos and games, mostly to amuse myself and my bandmates. I’ll make vids for you, too, if we’re a good fit. My sample videos show a big range of what’s possible with editing, VFX and animations. As you can see, I love copyright-free archival footage. It makes me laugh and I use it a lot!

I spend a lot of my time working as a programmer and web developer, and on films when friends and colleagues persuade me. I compose and edit music plus I play all kinds of instruments. When you see someone drumming in these vids, that’s me!
