Level Ex, creator of industry-leading medical video games for physicians, has welcomed Aharon Rabinowitz as its new Creative Director, bringing more than 20 years of experience in filmmaking, animation, visual effects, motion graphics, and software design to the company. Rabinowitz joins Level Ex from Maxon and Red Giant, where he served as Global Head of Digital Experience and Executive Producer for Red Giant Films. Over the past 12 years, he's helped guide Red Giant in the development of its software, global brand, website, and video content, and has built highly successful revenue-generating programs through the company’s digital marketing platforms.
As creative director at Level Ex, Rabinowitz will draw on his extensive experience in visual effects, storytelling, and digital marketing to help advise the design and development process and ensure that Level Ex's games get into the hands of more physicians around the globe.
“I've been very fortunate to spend my career doing work that I'm passionate about,” said Aharon Rabinowitz, Creative Director at Level Ex. “While I absolutely love visual storytelling and working with new technologies, I've always been fascinated with finding better ways to teach and learn. When I saw how Level Ex was using video game tech to help doctors discover new techniques and practice difficult patient scenarios, I was drawn to the idea that my skills could be used to help them make the world a better place. I’ve seen firsthand how cutting-edge gaming technology is revolutionizing the film industry and it’s obvious that there is potential for immense impact in many more applications. Level Ex has taken on the ambitious and admirable challenge of advancing the practice of medicine through play and I'm genuinely honored to be a part of it.”
Prior to his roles at Maxon and Red Giant, Aharon worked in the broadcast sector for companies like MTV, VH1, Nickelodeon, Sesame Street and Noggin, and was the Creative Director, Dynamic Media at Creative Cow, where he pioneered online video training.
Why: Rabinowitz’s hiring further demonstrates Level Ex’s continued commitment to bringing the most creative, industry-leading talent from all facets of the entertainment industry together with top physicians and healthcare professionals to advance the practice of medicine through play. His addition comes on the heels of Level Ex’s hiring of creative powerhouse Jason VandenBerghe, who serves as the company’s design director and previously worked on nearly every aspect of third and first-person action game design at studios such as Ubisoft (For Honor, Far Cry, Ghost Recon), ArenaNet (Guild Wars 2), Activision (Call of Duty, X-Men), and Electronic Arts (James Bond, Lord of the Rings). Together, they will work with their teams of developers and storytellers to capture the challenges of practicing medicine and revolutionize the way physicians advance their clinical skills, earn continuing medical education, and keep up-to-speed on new techniques and tools.
