Invisionship Intern
This was a 10 week design competition in which team teams got three separate challenges all related to Millennials in the retail sector. Each team of four consisted of a Marketing Intern, a 3D Designer, a Web Designer and a 2D Designer. Our mission was to up sales to Millennial men in the personal grooming market. Throughout the project I worked to develop a marketing strategy, app and digital kiosk design, an original ad campaign, magazine ads, email blasts, window signage, in-store displays/signage, mock mailers, and gave multiple presentations on project to large audiences.

This was a loose freelance position with no set scheduling. I gained skills in Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro, went through b-roll to select usable footage, put together rough runs of promotional videos before handing off to senior editor, matched audio tracks to video footage, and animated logos and credits. I also answered phones and greeted guests.
