Sidepieces
Occasionally, I like to challenge myself to stray from my recent work as a product designer. Below is a sampling of projects I have used to flex my creative muscle memory.
Wild Hogs & Saffron
Short Film Poster & Branding
Designed the movie poster and branding for Andy Sarjahani's award-winning short film "Wild Hogs and Saffron." The film follows a wild hog hunt in the Ozarks that leads to an unexpectedly vulnerable dialogue between Iranian American filmmaker Andy Sarjahani and his childhood friend Bubba as they navigate a polarized world. Original illustration using references from my parent's mountain home at the foothills of the Ozarks and a customized typeface.

Promotional Marketing
Designed the pitch deck, movie poster and social media marketing for the winner of "Best Documentary Feature" at Tribeca's 2020 Film Festival.
Insomnium
Promotional Marketing
Developed the marketing materials for the horror movie "Insomnium." Designed the movie poster and coded a custom promotional website. Now available on streaming services, it was recently trending on Hulu.





3D Assets
Exploratory
In an effort to stay current, I picked up a recent interactive 3d design/rendering tool, called "Spline." The assets above were created to explore a rebranding opportunity with my former tech consultancy.

Partnered with some friends to test out a dropship business venture. I designed the blankets, logo, promotional materials and art directed the photoshoot to capitalize on a partner's rich Colombian heritage.
