Identifying an opportunity to celebrate Women’s Month, I spearheaded a social campaign for Instagram and TikTok that celebrates the icons of French cinema. I adapted a viral social media trend to fit our brand identity, using footage of Brigitte Bardot and Catherine Deneuve. By taking full creative lead, I delivered a fast-paced, stylish video that honors these legends while keeping the brand at the center of the content.

To encourage guests to stay for special drinks after our screenings on Instagram, I took full creative lead from initial concept to final production. I sourced candid shots of iconic French film stars with drinks in hand to create glamorous, timeless visuals. By leaning into this atmospheric, invitation-style approach, I created a design that aims to speak directly to our audience and feel like a personal invite to join the party once the credits rolled.

To promote our French New Wave movie tour on Instagram, I took full creative lead from the initial concept to the final production. I wanted a non-traditional look that would immediately grab attention, so I centered the design around a film still from an iconic movie of the era. By transforming the sunglasses into the primary focal point for the tour details, I created a bold, graphic layout that stands out on a social feed.

Tasked with designing the ticket giveaway on Instagram for the show Les Femmes De Paris, I used the photos and information provided and transformed it with sultry, noir-inspired visuals. Handling all stages of the creative process, I used a dramatic spotlight and deep shadows to create a stage-like feel. By adding falling feathers as an ode to classic cabaret fans, I created a bold look that still keeps the atmosphere of the theatrical production.

FLYER

In initiating our paid advertising push, I designed this double-sided flyer to deviate from standard, political templates by applying an engaging aesthetic that would convert viewers into petition signers. I mapped the candidate’s platform inside a silhouette of Minnesota, creating a visual journey that effortlessly guides voters through his message.

By choosing a classic USA color palette to reinforce his Independent identity, I made this an easily digestible introduction for voters to learn who he is, what he stands for, and how to find him, ultimately driving a 225% spike in weekly website traffic.

For our signature petition push, I made a series of countdown posts to remind voters of the closing deadline window. I mixed graphics of the actual signature pledge sheet with images of local Minnesota landmarks to keep the campaign feeling close to home.

I kept the crucial dates and website bold and clear to create an effective call to action, ultimately helping us reach over 144K total accounts.

For our paid promotional campaign, I pitched the conceptual framework and provided the creative direction to introduce the candidate and his platform. I established the structural guidelines and general speaking points to ensure the footage remained grounded and authentic to his Independent identity, allowing him to speak naturally from his own perspective. By overseeing the shooting setup and executing the final edit of the footage, I delivered a conversational video that effectively built name recognition, voter trust, and expanded our follower base by 30%.
