About / 03

Agency trained. In-house tested.

I’m Eric Showalter, a Chicago-based producer and production manager with 15+ years inside agencies, in-house creative teams, and independent production. I help turn creative ambition into clear plans, aligned teams, efficient shoots, and work that lands.

I also work directly with businesses to clarify identity and content needs—but I’m most useful as an experienced production partner for teams that need extra capacity, practical guidance, or steady leadership without adding permanent overhead.
