About

My name is Cody Wittekind, also operating under the artist name “Known Fact”. I am a music and video producer and content creator, operating under my company Known Fact Music. You can find links to my work at Website not available. Sign in: https://www.twine.net/signup I am open to contract requests for video and audio work and full time opportunities.

I produce music albums and release on Bandcamp, Spotify, Youtube and other digital channels, while also offering music production on commission via VGen. On the video end, I create video art, animation, and content on gaming and other pop culture, while also livestreaming music production, gaming, and other variety content.

I currently do subject matter and data annotation work on a per-project basis in the areas of video and audio for various AI contracting platforms such as Alignerr and Mercor. If your company needs a creative with experience in model training, I’m open for longer term contracts.

Prior work I’ve done includes:
Security audit administration and engagement management at Code4rena, the largest web3 security audit platform. I worked with clients and security researchers to setup and run over 100 successful audit contests.

Six years as the lead digital producer at Zaner-Bloser, an educational publisher. I did project management and asset production (image, video, audio, copy, instructional design, and ux) for 20 different digital products (and revisions) that included the Superkids program and others in areas such as handwriting, spelling, grammar, and math for K-6 students.

Television production work for Sinclair Broadcasting and Live Event production for Ohio State’s Athletics Dept. This ran the gamut from camera operation, soundbooth work, motion graphics, and live operations.

I studied Fine Art at Ohio State University, with a concentration in Art & Technology and a minor in Film Studies, and interned at ACCAD for animation as well.

If you’re looking for a jack-of-all-trades creative with plenty of experience in tech and management as well, I may be your guy.
