OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER (2018-19)
Below is a wide variety of the work that I have had the opportunity to do during my time so far in Oklahoma City working for the Thunder organization. My first season with the team has been one of learning, paired with plenty of ups and downs. I am blessed with the opportunity to work with such an amazing team of designers as well as such an amazing group of coworkers.
My job with the Thunder consists of mostly doing "digital" designs, such as for social media, emails, webpages, digital billboards, and things of that nature. I create print materials as well, but digital is the focus of my job for now.

SOCIAL GRAPHICS
Shown first are a couple of the graphics created during our All-Star campaign. The "two for one" graphics were created for the fan voting period.
Below are some various social graphics that were created throughout the season.
Below was the very first project I had the honor of working on after starting my job with the Thunder. This was a swipe-through schedule release created for Instagram, specifically. We created additional pieces for Twitter et al., but this was the primary piece. The "live" schedule release is shown below.

ANIMATIONS
Below are a few very simple animated designs I have made. Prior to coming to OKC, I had zero experience with motion graphics or After Effects, but I now can proudly say that I can open AE and create a new project without accidentally making the application crash. So one might say that I'm making some real strides in this department.

DIGITAL BILLBOARDS
I got to create lots of digital billboards throughout the year - mostly for basketball related things, such as player campaigns. Below are just a handful or so of the billboards I was able to make. These are all live-view shots to show the billboards in action.
The first set of billboards below were ran before the season began. We ran a countdown to the season opener, as well as running player focused billboards where we used a word or phrase that we felt best described each respective player's playing style or way they impacted the game or our team.
Here are a few marketing pieces that were ran.
Lastly, here are a few of the various player oriented campaigns that we ran throughout the season. I really enjoyed being able to make something that I knew would be seen throughout the entire city.
