Hey. I'm ricardo.

CREATIVE EXECUTIVE PRODUCER | SENIOR CREATIVE LEAD | FRACTIONAL HEAD OF PRODUCTION

Ricardo Ceballos is a senior production and creative operations leader with deep experience delivering ambitious commercial, branded content, and documentary-style work for agencies, brands, and production partners. He is known for combining strong creative judgment with calm, solutions-oriented leadership, especially in fast-moving environments where timelines are tight, stakeholders are complex, and the work needs to stay protected from development through delivery.

His strength lies in bridging creative ambition and production reality. Ricardo helps teams translate ideas into executable plans, align the right people around the work, identify risks early, and maintain a high standard of craft throughout the process. He brings senior-level oversight across strategy, scoping, staffing, budgeting, production planning, and execution, making him a valuable partner in situations where trust, experience, and clear communication matter most.

Over the years, Ricardo has built a reputation for leading projects with precision, flexibility, and care — supporting agencies and brands not only as a producer, but as a strategic collaborator who understands how to protect both the creative and the process behind it. He is especially effective on projects that require thoughtful leadership, strong cross-functional coordination, and the ability to keep momentum without sacrificing quality.

Ricardo is available for senior freelance assignments, embedded campaign leadership, production consulting, and fractional Head of Production support for teams that need experienced oversight without a full-time hire.

BIO

Executive Producer and bilingual senior creative production lead with 15+ years of experience delivering commercials, branded content, and integrated campaigns for global brands and major networks. I’ve led projects from development through delivery across broadcast, digital, and documentary-style storytelling, bringing together strong creative instincts, operational clarity, and calm leadership under pressure.

My experience includes producing work for brands such as Disney, Coca-Cola, Starbucks, Uber Eats, Burger King, Best Buy, abc, KFC, Marriott, ESPN, DoorDash, and Universal Music Group. Across every scale of production, I’m known for building trust with clients, creatives, and teams while guiding complex projects with clear communication, thoughtful problem-solving, and high standards for the work.

I do my best work in collaborative environments where creativity and execution are equally valued. Whether leading large-scale productions, managing cross-functional teams, or helping shape the right approach from the start, I care deeply about making great work the right way—for the audience, the team, and the people behind it.
