About

Founder and creative director Wes Townsend brings over 8 years of post production and broadcast design expertise to Garbanzo Grafix. Beginning his freelance career with MTV in 2003, Wes cut his teeth designing motion graphics for national music videos and commercials for the likes of Christina Aguilera, Foo Fighters, Velvet Revolver, and Keith Urban.

Wes is an artist’s artist, and is more passionate about the final frame than the final dollar. He and his staff, interns, and pool of freelancers are quite simply the best in town, having worked for top motion graphics departments at MTV, Loyal Kaspar, 1st Ave Machine, Psyop, The Mill, Bionic, EyeballNYC, Trollbäck + Company, and others. In addition to visionary, Wes’s operation is lean, providing unmatched value in the industry.

Wes can be found at the opening night of most Pixar movies, lamenting about the size of his renderfarm.

"I've worked with Wes and Garbanzo Grafix on several projects including TV series and live, daily news shows. When I needed a complete graphics package for a new live show, I instantly contacted them because of their creativity, work ethic, and all-around temperament. They are always polite and you can count on them for hard work and honesty. Plus, they take criticism well and strive to improve with every pass. Wes is true pleasure to be around."

Jennie Sager, Executive Producer, MTV

Greg Henry, Executive Producer/Director, Part2 Pictures

In the 5 years we've been working with Garbanzo Grafix, they have never settled for just good and have always delivered dynamic elements that complement our vision. We look forward to continuing our collaboration with the Garbanzo family for years to come."
