In the early 2000s, Casey Neistat was a dishwasher and short-order cook whose hobbies included making short movies. Moving to New York City with little but his motto “Do What You Can’t,” Neistat continued to hone his production skills. His 2003 short, iPod’s Dirty Secret, earned him broad recognition and coincided with changes to the iPod’s warranty program.
Commercial success followed with HBO’s The Neistat Brothers and an independent film, Daddy Longlegs. Neistat found a home on YouTube, then developed the social media app Beme, later acquired by CNN. His distinctive approach to storytelling soon made him a leading producer of content for brands including Nike and Mercedes Benz.
He continues to be a dominant force on social media, earning large audiences on YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat. With his wife, Neistat also produced Couples Therapy, a candid look at marriage and parenting that enjoyed a successful one-year run.
Neistat’s speeches detailing his creative process and business models have enlivened events including TEDx and The Nantucket Project.
