A decade of movement 
and aesthetics – stay moving

Cheers to 10 years of igniting the ambitiously bold. Join us in kicking off this next chapter by celebrating where we’ve been and the people who made it possible.

YEAR: 2014 // THE ORIGINS A decade of movement and aesthetics—stay moving

In laid-back Mission Beach, a dream was born from the desire to stand out in a sea of sameness. Josh and Andrew set out to find bold, innovative partners ready to push boundaries. Starting small—two laptops on a kitchen table chewed on by Josh’s dog, Fletcher—each new client fueled our passion for excellence and genuine connections. Movetic emerged from this ethos, embodying our relentless drive to Stay Moving.
 
Our journey began with Inside the Athletic Grind, a brand started by our good friends that told stories of athletes grinding their way to their goals. After that, we took on projects one at a time, crossing our fingers that each new job would cover the rent. We lived simply and minimally, embracing the classic San Diego beach bum life. Each morning, Andrew rode his bike along Mission Bay to get to Josh's house, where we poured our hearts into turning our vision into reality.
 
As we grew, we attracted opportunities to work on some exciting projects, including ITAG, Buccos, and Kai Vida—a local startup offering standup paddleboard tours to different breweries in the San Diego Bay. Every project, every partnership, was a step forward, fueled by our passion and dedication to doing great work with great people.

YEAR: 2014 to 2016 // Early Years A decade of movement and aesthetics—stay moving

Andrew began his digital nomad lifestyle, moving to San Francisco in summer 2014, and then to New York City in October 2015, taking Movetic bi-coastal. We gained key players, bringing Yichen on as a partner, who brought business, finance, and digital marketing acumen to the company. Our first company reflection was held in the coastal town of San Clemente, where we gathered to celebrate our achievements and dream of the future.
 
Our partnership with Brady and Co was a game-changer, trusting us to overhaul their entire brand. We worked on notable projects for clients like OurPact, Verykool, and Lacy Maxwell. Our collaboration with Skrewball Whiskey became a milestone; we believed in the project and pushed our limits, resulting in the fastest-growing spirit in the US and catapulting us to success.
 
We ventured to Northern California’s Emerald Triangle, the marijuana capital of the world, for our client Gro-Tech, marking our entry into the marijuana industry. It was a memorable and wild trip that opened new doors for us. Towards the end of this era, we opened our office in Leucadia and began hiring slowly, starting with a full-time designer and developer. Each step forward was a testament to our passion, dedication, and relentless pursuit of excellence.

Our journey gained momentum with more notable collaborations and unforgettable experiences. We partnered with Celsius on a content tour spanning eight cities over eight months, as well as executing our biggest and most successful website redesigns to date. It was an honor to be part of taking Celsius from virtually unknown to one of the biggest consumer brands. These years marked a turning point for us, as we hit our stride and began to scale.
 
Creativity flourished as we hosted Creative Beings workshops. We immersed ourselves in extreme sports by partnering with the Dew Tour, promoting the event in California through our progressive digital marketing. We also collaborated with the San Diego Aviators, helping to bring professional tennis to Carlsbad, California.
 
During this busy period, we built out our content department, hiring full-time photographers and sales positions to support our growth. We signed more clients and began winning awards more consistently. We also took on pro bono work, designing for the local event Interactive Day in San Diego, where we provided art direction and conference support. Each collaboration and achievement fueled our drive and demonstrated our commitment to excellence and innovation.

2017 to 2019 Creating our Identity

YEAR: 2020 to 2024 // A Complex Chapter A decade of movement and aesthetics—stay moving

In 2020, COVID hit, causing many clients to pause their projects. Despite making sacrifices and tough decisions, we emerged proud to have navigated the pandemic without losing any team members. During this period, we collaborated with Lyft on their self-driving website, pushing the boundaries of our capabilities for such a renowned brand. We also made waves in e-commerce and motion graphics with Drnxmyth. With extra time on our hands, we dedicated hundreds of hours to creating our inaugural brand reel.
 
As we moved past the challenges of COVID, we entered a new phase of growth, expanding our team with project managers and brand strategists. Our partnership with Crocs began with a successful shoot in the Joshua Tree desert, setting the stage for a fruitful multi-year relationship. We were also privileged to collaborate with Cured Elixirs, BAD Investments, HNM Systems, Novitium, Rebalance, Video Archives featuring Quentin Tarantino, and Oakley.
 
Embracing cutting-edge technology in web design, we launched Movetic Labs and introduced our Stay Moving Collection—a venture into clothing with Everpress, promoting creativity, progress, and entrepreneurial spirit. Additionally, our Stay Moving Series podcast kept our industry updated throughout COVID and beyond. By July 2022, we transitioned to a fully remote team, bidding farewell to our office as remote work became the preferred choice. A highlight was our retreat to Julian, CA, where we stayed at the home of a former Disney animator from the “Nine Old Men,” enriching our creative journey.

YEAR: 2024 and Beyind // Present Day A decade of movement and aesthetics—stay moving

Our story continues to unfold as we embark on a diverse portfolio of inspiring projects.

Each project has expanded our horizons, deepened our expertise, and reaffirmed our commitment to creating impactful work. As we look ahead, we are eager to expand our creative collective nationwide and take on more ambitious projects.
 
We ventured to Northern California to collaborate with our new clients and friends at West Peak, a sparkling spirit centered around the outdoor sports and culture of Santa Cruz, California. Our ongoing partnership with Tractor Beverage Co. continues to thrive as we assist them in evolving their brand through campaigns, photoshoots, and strategic initiatives. Also, we announced a strategic alliance with a long-standing & award-winning PR firm Crowe PR.
 
Since our inception, our mission has been to inspire brands to move forward and stay dynamic. We extend heartfelt gratitude to every partner who has placed their trust in us along the way. Here’s to the second decade of Movetic!
