      I had the opportunity to design the visuals for the SLAM Summer Classic Vol 4. Every year SLAM brings in all the best HS hoopers in America to play in the most exciting high school All-Star game. Throughout the weekend player got to experience NYC via tour bus and hoop at the legendary Rucker Park in Harlem. I lead all aspects of visual direction from pre to post production. I collaborated with SLAM community managers, designers and video editors. All through being in constant communication with sponsors including Nike, Gatorade, Champs Sports, the NBPA and Def Jam.

adidas Originals CYPHERS

created a new platform championing originality, individual expression and sisterhood. The project celebrated cross-generational collaboration and female empowerment while re-introducing adidas Originals to the culture in a distinct way. 

Artists from  Houston and Atlanta  produced two original tracks released through Mass Appeal Records, supported with behind-the-scenes content and  unique music videos shot at  iconic locations in each city. To further amplify the partnership, we launched experiential events, released the tracks on DSPs and executed a cross-platform social campaign bolstered by paid media.

SLAM AD LIBS

I had the opportunity to design the visual identity system for SLAM AD LIBS. A fun youtube series where SLAM asks top HS hoopers a set of questions and uses their responses to formulate a story. At the end of the interview, each player reads back their newly, enhanced story.

 

I lead creative direction for the following:

– YouTube graphics (long-form video)
