Robert's multimedia production company has been going strong for over 20 years. He created Prevalent Entertainment, Inc. as an encompassing entity for a comprehensive array of production ventures in Film, Television, Animation and Music. Prevalent Entertainment was born in the mid 1990's as a music production company when Robert signed on as a music composer for the Universal Music Group (UMG).

Around that time, Robert became an integral part of the animation technology team at DreamWorks SKG. For 7 years, he worked on such animated features as Shrek, Shrek 2, and Over the Hedge. He has played a crucial role for the story departments in the areas of storyboard development, computer enhanced visual development, computer generated animation and digital audio production.
