Sarofsky Corp. founder and executive creative director Erin Sarofsky got up the nerve to launch her own design-driven production studio in 2009, and she hasn't looked back since. In fact, the experiences keep getting sweeter. Her work with a Who Who list of top-level marketing and entertainment industry executives is based on deep relationships forged over time. For example, her experiences with directors Joe and Anthony Russo, with whom she collaborated on main titles for Community, Happy Endings and Animal Practice, led to her studio selection to create the main titles for the Marvel blockbusters Guardians of the Galaxy, Captain America: The Winter Soldier Civil War and Ant-Man. Her wealth of industry connections also draws from past experiences as a Creative Director for Superfad in New York and for Digital Kitchen in Chicago. She has led commercial projects for ATT, American Express, Budweiser, Coca-Cola, Mike Hard Lemonade, McDonald, McGraw-Hill, PBS and X-Games, and main title projects for Dreamworks, Marvel, Paramount Pictures, Spyglass Productions, Touchstone Pictures and many others.
