Brand Identity – For Prototype Media, we crafted a brand that lives at the intersection of humanity and innovation. Inspired by the concept of a prototype human avatar, the identity balances familiarity with a sleek, futuristic aesthetic.

It is human, artistic, and accessible, while also synthetic, technical, and elevated.

Brand in Use – New Business Pitch Deck

High-Fidelity*
Digital Humans

Unlike generic AI-generated content, these high-fidelity digital humans are fully rigged 3D models. Built to move, perform, and evolve like real humans. Paired with artificial intelligence, they give clients complete control over their likeness. This technology unlocks new possibilities for storytelling, performance, and brand presence across platforms. These models are not just representations. They are vessels of legacy, designed to preserve icons and revive the past for future generations.

We built the entire pipeline from scratch. Creating lifelike human models at this level is one of the most complex challenges in VFX. It requires a multidisciplinary team of specialists—groom artists, skin texture painters, FACS and likeness modelers, riggers, animators, and more. Every detail is handcrafted. And once complete, the capabilities are nearly limitless.

The Digital Human Team:

Hadi Karimi, Muhammad Waseem, Marco Capparelli, Luxas Hajka, JC Leon, Rodrigo Avila, Xavi Rodrigues, Neil Biondich, Chris Knight, Andrew Turner.

My Role:

I helped develop the pipeline and oversaw the creation of digital humans from start to finish. From client briefings and crafting likenesses to quality control, I directed every stage. This included motion capture, animation, Research and Development, and photo styling.

Re-brand

Under the creative direction of Derrit DeRouen and Executive Creative Director Donna Lamar,
I was fortunate to contribute to Twitter’s rebrand. The long-anticipated goal was clear: to give
Twitter a voice that truly reflects who they are as a company.

I wasn’t on this project from start to finish, but I contributed at two key points. Early on, I worked with Derrit to audit the existing brand guidelines and identify gaps. Later, I helped bring the visual language from Irradie into our systems, translating it for use across Twitter’s owned social channels.

Brand Refresh

Before the total rebrand, Twitter’s visual identity was fragmented. It often felt like there was no cohesive brand at all, due in part to guidelines that allowed for too much flexibility. While the company worked toward a long-term brand strategy, we launched a mini refresh to bring clarity, consistency, and a unified sense of identity in the interim.

Under the creative direction of Nate Mileheim and partnering with Six, we developed a scalable design system that brought order to Twitter’s visual language, especially across social. The system was built on a clear hierarchy of content, making it easy to adopt and apply across global teams.

Our efforts helped unify third-party content, product storytelling, and marketing communications under a more cohesive and recognizable brand.

As Art Director, I served as the link between Six Studio and Twitter’s internal Brand Studio. I helped guide the creative direction, pressure-tested the system across branded assets, and identified where refinements were needed. Along the way, I worked closely with cross-functional teams to ensure the system was practical and flexible across use cases. Once finalized, I led the roll out and onboarding of the system to the broader.

Channel Refresh

The original icons for Twitter’s vertical channels felt disconnected from the brand, lacking cohesion and any visual tie beyond a shared blue background. I redesigned the entire set using the same geometric system behind Twitter’s bird logo, constructing each icon entirely from circles. The result was a unified and scalable visual language that brought clarity, consistency, and brand integrity to our social channels.

Consumer Marketing

A pivotal moment during my time at Twitter was being paired with my copywriter partner, Clare Sandlund, and social partner Bianca Posterli, to lead a series of consumer campaigns that would redefine how Twitter showed up in the world. Instead of trying to tell people what Twitter is, we flipped the narrative, and let them tell us

The insight was simple: Twitter is different for everyone. We all experience it through the lens of our own conversations, communities, and curiosities. What started as a fresh creative approach quickly became Twitter’s go-to advertising strategy. The first two campaigns in this evolution, Twitter Is and Me on Twitter, set the tone.

“Twitter is…” celebrated all the ways people describe the platform in their own words. We took over New York City with bold subway station takeovers, high-impact billboards, guerrilla-style sidewalk chalk activations, a pop-up called “Twitter Is Candy,” and a full social rollout. Every tweet featured was real, and after launch, we tweeted campaign photos back to the original authors. They responded by sharing it themselves, turning the campaign into something bigger, louder, and entirely community-driven..

Twitter is – Guerrilla-style sidewalk chalk activation.

Twitter is – NYC Billboards

The precursor to the “Twitter Is” campaign, Me on Twitter was a playful series of subway takeovers inspired by a meme we saw trending. People were comparing their personalities on Twitter versus other platforms. We brought that to life with real tweets from real people, taking over subway stations in both San Francisco and New York. To build buzz, the @Twitter account unfollowed everyone except the campaign participants, then slid into their DMs with photos of their billboards.

Social & Content

Joining Twitter’s Social and Content team was my first real opportunity to lead a group of creatives. In the fast-paced world of social, I worked alongside an incredible crew of editors, animators, videographers, and producers, while collaborating closely with the social community managers to concept, elevate, and deliver some of the most fun and culturally relevant work at the company. This was Twitter’s voice in real time, and I was proud to help shape it.

Twitter NFT – Social Campaign

As the NFT conversation took off on Twitter, we saw an opportunity to join in with something uniquely our own.
We created seven custom NFTs celebrating Twitter nostalgia and partnered with Rarible to give away 140 of them,
honoring the platform’s original character limit. Anyone who replied to the launch tweet had a chance to get one.

The campaign generated over $5 million in trading volume, picked up major press coverage, and even helped one recipient pay for college. It remains one of the most rewarding projects I worked on at Twitter.

Social Branding & Tone of Voice

Product Marketing

Working on Twitter’s Product Marketing team gave my copywriter partner, Clare Sandlund, and I the opportunity to experiment with how the brand showed up across product launches. We were tasked with bringing the new identity into each announcement, making sure the tone, energy, and personality of Twitter came through in every detail.

New User Emails

The original icons for Twitter’s vertical channels felt disconnected from the brand, lacking cohesion and any visual tie beyond a shared blue background. I redesigned the entire set using the same geometric system behind Twitter’s bird logo, constructing each icon entirely from circles. The result was a unified and scalable visual language that brought clarity, consistency, and brand integrity to our social channels.

I worked with Afterpay to reimagine their content
strategy and how they show up on social media.

Social Strategy

Working with my copywriting partner, Knolton Bourn, we developed a content strategy for Afterpay that felt both authentic to the brand and native to the platforms it would live on. The goal was to extend Afterpay’s voice, visual identity, and core values into consistent, best-in-class social content. Below are a few examples of how that strategy came to life.

My practice entails helping startups scale with clarity and efficiency. You have the vision, but the wrong creative approach can waste time and resources. My process removes the guesswork with focused, process-driven creativity.

Inefficiencies create costly pain points for startups: wasted time, wasted money, and wasted effort. Whether it’s a delayed launch, a flashy project that falls flat, or work misaligned with customer needs, the result is the same. Lost momentum. My goal is to fix that.

I’ve established standardized processes so clients always see a clear plan and path forward. What sets me apart is a commitment to proven, human-centered strategies shaped by experience with global brands, forward-thinking startups, and industry leaders. Bottom line: my process is built to turn creative investment into real results.

If you’re a prospective client or building out your creative team, I’d love to be considered. I lead cross-functional teams by speaking the language of multiple disciplines, but I’m just as comfortable rolling up my sleeves and getting into the work. No job is too big or too small. If I can help make a difference, I’m in.

Thank You

Grateful to all the creative partners
who helped bring this work to life.
