Known for his keen eye for striking imagery, Mirchandani consistently delivers high-profile visual campaigns that not only represent the essence of the content but also ensure maximum visibility across multiple platforms.
Mirchandani’s journey in the world of production began in Toronto, where he taught himself the ropes of the industry before making his mark in the global market.

His expertise in creating high-profile content is now widely recognized, and his portfolio includes prominent collaborations with global brands like Marvel, American Express, and Nestle, as well as Amazon Prime Video series like Kids in the Hall and Last One Laughing: Canada.
For Mirchandani, key art is more than just a promotional image; it is an essential storytelling tool. Each photograph, graphic, and video he produces serves as the face of the content it represents, providing audiences with a visual introduction to what they can expect. It’s a job he takes seriously, ensuring that every project is not only true to its creative vision but also strategically positioned to catch the eyes of its target audience.
One of the hallmarks of Mirchandani’s work is his ability to translate complex creative visions into high-impact visuals that resonate across platforms. Most recently, he played a pivotal role as Lead Producer on Marvel’s landmark national animated campaign, which marked the debut of Marvel Trading Cards, the largest licensed collectible program in North America to date. This ambitious 2024 initiative involved producing over 100 motion and print assets tied to 90 unique Marvel collectible trading cards, distributed in more than 2,400 retail stores nationwide.
Under his leadership, the campaign extended across Meta, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Google, and nationwide theatrical pre-rolls before Marvel films in over 150 theaters, significantly amplifying its reach and impact.
Mirchandani’s role in the Marvel campaign underscored his exceptional leadership and problem-solving skills.

In addition to Marvel, Mirchandani has also partnered with leading global brands such as Nike, Gymshark, and Adidas.
