MTV USA

MTV USA was looking to commission some custom digital pieces MTV’s social media pages. They were dedicating the whole month of December to popular music videos in 2021 through commissioning lots of artists different assets to create.

These pieces were created in the form of old movie posters. Each one would highlight an illustrated scene from a music video, as well as the artist’s name, song title, and featured artists if applicable.

NYTIMES

X T BRAND
X DEPARTURES
2021

NYTimes and its T Brand commissioned me a series called “Beyond Words” this year.
This is a series featured a different word along with a visual.
I had to find a way to interpretate each word with type.
All 35 words were very unusual ones from all around the world. They cant be fount in the vocabolary as they were “undefinables”.

WETRANSFER/ WEPRESENT

2021 Ideas Report

Each year, WePresent surveys 10k creatives from all over the world about the state of creativity right now. This survey is turned into some key creative insights that are relevant for this period in time and something the industry can learn from. I was commissioned to design the main look of these essays by making them more fun and playfull.
