During my internship with the Portland Pickles, I completed a variety of tasks. Making static graphics to promote upcoming events with a quick turnaround, creating 3D models for promotional videos and AR uses, and designing, animating, and directing hype videos to promote the upcoming season.
These tasks required me to stay within the brand's voice and identity. I learned to improve my ideation and communication skills within the feedback loop.
Preseason Hype Video
Black Friday Posts
One of my first projects for the team was to promote an upcoming Black Friday sale. This required me to design a video with formats for reels, stories, and the grid. I began by creating layouts in Illustrator and Photoshop, conscious of the safe zones required by formats.
Ticket Promotions
The pickles have calendar days where each home game is a special event. I was tasked with creating some graphics for both their Instagram feed and banners for the website.
