#FamilyDay
Role: Art Direction, Design
In the midst of working from home in the spring of 2020 and on #familyday, the #OKRPeople (and OKRP kiddos) gathered at lunchtime for the agencies first virtual variety show. To showcase on social, each performance was cut into cute little spotlighted segments to :15 of fame. The design needed to be colorful, playful, and an homage to old-school daytime kid television. For the design, I took zoom-quality screen-shots and added each to an inviting spring-time color palette with playful and retro typography and digital window shapes.
#MothersDay
Role: Art Direction, Design
For Mother’s Day 2020, the OKRP social team made an animated, vintage-styled, credit scroll to give credit to all the employee moms. This execution allowed us to feature each employee’s mom in a conceptual and timely manner..
#YouTubeAd That has Six Appeal
Role: Concept, Art Direction, Design
The Webby Awards invited the advertising community and general public to celebrate the #TheYouTubeAd of the Year by voting for their favorite commercials; OKRP’s Groupon six second spot was nominated for the, “#YouTube Ad That has Six Appeal” category. Following suit, the concept surrounded itself on :6 videos to remind the public to vote daily. The design consisted of both the OKRP and GROUPON branding and each video was posted across all social platforms. The short series ultimately played a major role and was a success, earning us to win the official title.
