CHOOSE-YOUR-OWN-ADVENTURE FILM | FEBRUARY 2019

SUMMER WITH YUENGLING | JULY 2018

Some exciting projects coming soon and a brand campaign relaunch for Yuengling (America’s Oldest Brewery) just debuted. It features a few thirty-second TV spots, social media content, print and more.
PROJECTION MAPPING

A lot of behind the scenes work went into creating this one. Original music by Future Perfect, choreography by Simeon Qsyea, projection by Projection Artworks and animations by Found Studio.
NYC + ULTIMATE EARS WAS A BLAST | NOVEMBER 2017
It’s been a fun close of the summer as we move into fall. Back in July, I shot a great campaign for Ultimate Ears. Featuring a variety of unique people and set to a musical mashup by Alex Goose, it’s a fun campaign that I am really proud of. I also worked with the PIA Agency and HP to create a very timely spot about visual hacking. Think about this next time you are on your devices in public spaces.
