Can (b. 1980, Istanbul, Turkey) is a Creative Director, Designer and Editor. He has been an Executive Creative Director at R/GA studio, the leading global interactive advertising agency in New York City, since 2004. During this time, Can's grounding in design, coupled with his extensive knowledge of digital filmmaking, typography, animation, and editing, supported the agency in creating cutting-edge content for their innovative clients.

Can’s extraordinary contribution in video and motion graphics for NIKE laid the foundation for the company’s Digital Studio, a content production studio that R/GA built from the ground up. He was also central in creating film and video work for NIKE's American Football and Basketball brands, working with such NBA and NFL stars as Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Michael Redd, and many more.

Can has been recognized for his inventive designs at leading advertising and design industry awards as AIGA, Cannes Cyber Lions, One Show, London International Awards, Communications Arts, and Creative Review, to name a few. He is also an active contributor to non-commercial art projects; he has been the resident Visual Director for the art-rock-band Manner since 2009, where he is responsible for the band’s overall visual concepts—from poster designs, video storytelling, to light design for their live shows.
