Earl Stoner
Principle, Executive Producer
For the past twenty years, I've worked on both the creation and distribution sides of the entertainment industry. I've been fortunate to have worked for some of the industry's leading companies, including Discovery Communications, Time Warner, Comcast and Tim Miller entertainment. My broad understanding of business, management and creative skills have proven invaluable in establishing a company that can fully serve the complex needs of our customer/partners. I understand client issues. I know what it takes to ensure our customer/partners have a great creative and business experience with us.
As General Manager at Tim Miller entertainment and as Director of Business Operations at Discovery Communications, my past responsibilities have included strategic planning, business development, sales & marketing, organizational design and strategic partnerships. Having been both a client and vendor, I understand the internal and external demands on the creative process and corporate priorities. My goal is to ensure that the creative remains the focus, and the overall process component provides clear and effective communication in support of the project.
I am a native of Michigan and a graduate of Michigan State University in East Lansing, MI where I received my Business degree.
Marian Lipow
Principle, Creative Director
For over twenty years, I have been responsible for creating and executing award-winning conceptual design solutions at ABC News, Telezign, Image Design and most recently as President/Design Director, Hocus Pocus/Tim Miller entertainment.
My goal in opening Lipow/Stoner Design was to create diverse projects in all media including creative direction and design in the realm of concept development, film shoots, 2d/3d animation, print, etc. I have been instrumental in developing numerous award-winning design projects for leading entertainment and media companies including CNN, ABC Network, ABC News, Discovery Networks, Lifetime, Time Warner, Scripps Networks (HGTV, DIY, Do-It-Yourself Network and Fine Living) Country Music Television, and Rainbow Media Entertainment. I have been honored with numerous gold, silver and bronze BDA Awards, a PROMAX World Class and several silver Promax awards, and multiple Mobius, Monitor, New York Festivals, Telly's and local Emmy awards.
I am a native of Glen Cove, NY and a graduate of Tyler School of Art, a division of Temple University in Philadelphia where I taught television design for several years.
Nelson Rowe
Principle, Director of Animation & Design
For over 14 years, I've worked on a wide range of design and visual effects for worldwide brand icons including Ford, Toyota, Gillette, Canon, Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer, Wyeth, Disney and Coca-Cola.
My experience includes extensive compositing with 2D and 3D elements for commercials, film and broadcast projects. I'm fluent in Flame, After Effects, Combustion, Illustrator and Photoshop as well as natural media, photography and film. Additionally, my experience includes Technical Direction on and off set as well as work with Maya and Soft Image.
Prior to my broadcast experience I was a print advertising Art Director/Designer for clients including Estee Lauder, American Express, Chase Bank and the NFL Team Yearbook (Dallas Cowboys & Philadelphia Eagles).
