CREATIVE DIRECTION, DESIGN, ILLUSTRATION AND STRATEGY

Using cut out paper I designed and illustrated strategy for AARP’s “How-to” story with partnering providers.

CREATIVE DIRECTION

Upcoming Drops is the highest performing of all Nike’s digital content. It is a weekly offense series, featuring mid- to high-heat footwear releases. Its purpose is to create excitement around upcoming launches, sustain Member engagement, drive opt-ins for notifications, and help Members to never miss a drop.

Nike trusted my team to revamp the creative for Upcoming Drops. The layout showcases a maximum of three footwear styles and utilizes their standard Product Detail Photography (PDP) within a templated system for weekly offense production. Additionally, it allows for easy translation of activations into Spanish.

Our final creation is evocative of futuristic championship display, a single PDP hovers heroically above a pedestal. Tone-on-tone color creates a sculptural yet clean environment to showcase the product.

Potential for a seamless loop to provide subtle animation, giving the PDP life as it floats up and down. The opacity of the drop shadow will change in relation to the PDP’s proximity to the pedestal to add more detail and fidelity.

What began as a pitch for an opportunity to produce a bespoke shopping experience and photoshoot for a few lucky winners, turned into a celebration of the Nike Unite stores one year anniversaries.

I lead a team of designers and writers who created a set of five illustrated character sets that are unique to each Nike Unite store and their local culture.

These characters will be used on all of the digital advertising for the Unite Anniversary campaign and will also be included as a gift with purchase sticker pack.

SITE: Smoothie Matchmaker

Bob’s Red Mill needed to put real effort behind the marketing of their new product line of protein powders. The company offers hundreds of SKUs of existing products and a huge base of dedicated consumers, but this was its first foray into the highly competitive nutritional supplement market, and the company sought a way to capture consumer attention and imagination. 

APPROACH
Our holistic strategy centered around creating a dynamic, engaging, and educational campaign that would bring the products to life and drive trial among new and existing Bob’s Red Mill consumers. The effort involved building an interactive site to house original video content, along with developing strategic partnerships to raise awareness of both the site and the new products.

Our website, which I named the “Smoothie Matchmaker,” featured Julie Mooris, key influencer and a well-known chef and blogger, from the health and nutrition category. She developed for us a diverse suite of more than two dozen recipes that made use of the new protein powders. We then shot and produced minute-long, high quality videos featuring how-to’s for each recipe.

We utilized social media content to further drive engagement and push traffic to the site, and we developed a content advertising partnership with Yoga Journal, while also employing media relations, to raise additional awareness of the campaign and products. 

RESULTS
While the campaign is currently still running and we haven’t yet received statistics for the website, we do know videos that the company has cross-shared on Facebook and Instagram have received more than 266,000 views just on those platforms. Our media relations efforts have generated more than 3 million impressions to-date.

I designed and helped build a touch screen kiosk that allows an in-store customer to order customized Nike Pro gear. Using a barcode reader attached to the kiosk, the user is able to scan the product and then personalize it with text and graphics. Customization options are stored in a 2D barcode printed on a form that was sent to the factory along with the garment.

The kiosk was developed using Flex 3 and Flash along with a custom application shell built using Haxe.
