Video is Atlas Acopian’s first language. He has made sense of the world around him through new technology – shaping narratives through family movies and exploring perspectives through creative drone shots – and developed a unique, playful and conceptual approach to filmmaking as a result. Although he is known for his striking visual effects – as seen in work for Amazon Music, Red Bull, Ford and Adobe – Acopian is now focused on storytelling to communicate feelings and untapped realities in engaging and provocative ways.
Acopian has won a number of accolades from esteemed institutions including Forbes 30 Under 30, Young Guns 18, and the Adweek Creative 100, among others. His work has appeared in Refinery29, NPR, Fast Company, Nylon, The Verge, Vice, Rolling Stone, Dazed, Harper’s Bazaar, BBC, Paper Mag, and Business Insider and other clients include Airbnb, Budweiser, Chipotle, Coachella, Everlane, Facebook, Instagram, Interscope Records, MTV, Revlon, R/GA, T-Mobile, Sports Illustrated, Uber and W Hotels.
