The shots you didn’t want to post on Instagram because they weren’t perfectly curated. The photos were not meant to feel posed, staged, or stylized.

Tee Up & Take Off
Client: JetBlue
Project: Celebrate and spread awareness of JetBlue's new seasonal service from JFK To Palm Springs, we created a 25-foot Rube Goldberg putt-putt golf machine in a lower Manhattan storefront. Passersby were invited to putt a golf ball through the contraption. The ball starts in New York, catches a flight at JFK, and lands in Palm Springs, California. As the ball makes its way through Palms Springs, if the ball landed in the winning hole, they won a free roundtrip flight.
Role: The ultimate challenge for me as an Art Producer, find a Rube Goldberg designer (2D House) who could engineer a 25-foot machine to bring the creative concept to life. In addition to engineering the machine, the artwork throughout the New York and Palm Springs set was custom illustrated and built to match the brand's colorful swedeco look and feel.

Paper Paradise
Client: JetBlue Barclays
Project: Demonstrate the power of JetBlue Card's 3x points at grocery stores and 2x points at restaurants.
Role: Worked with artist Hattie Newmann to produce paper sculpture cities, photograph the work, and create stop motion animations for social. After seeing the high volume of social engagement, the clients and creatives decided to house these paper sculptures in glass showcases in the JetBlue Terminal 5, JFK, as well as expand the concept to a printed OOH campaign. In order to achieve the same quirky movement as in our GIFS, we used motorized magnets within the display cases to mobilize the cars and boats within the cities. We also installed headphone jacks that passersby could plug into and listen to the sounds of each city.
Outcome: The campaign generated over 8 million social impressions and 65,000 engagements.

Mullen Lowe Holiday Card
Project: The creatives came up with the concept of making a wreath out of real tentacles and a sweater made for an octopus.
Role: Produced the photoshoot, which also included hitting up the local fish stores for some octopus, and finding a great knitter who could create a custom octopus sweater.
Wreaths are fragrant and iconic harbingers of the holiday season.
They’re even more fragrant when they’re made of actual octopus tentacles.
Christmas sweaters have come to dominate holiday pop culture.
What started out as an ironic love affair has become totally mainstream.
Let’s not leave our iconic MullenLowe Octopus out in the cold.

Role: Produce a library of assets for JetBlue's new destination, Bermuda. Images were used in OOH, print, social, web and an experiential activation (see below).

We shot every inch of Bermuda, from the sandy pink beaches, to the Gombey Dancers in downtown Hamilton, and the hidden Fantasy Caves. Due to weather, we hustled and shot nearly all of the locations within 24 hours, resulting in 85 final selects to add to their brand library.

Come Seek Brooklyn Murals
Client: Royal Caribbean
Project: Using a tromp l’oeil effect, Royal Caribbean’s “Come Seek” campaign broke down the walls between viewers and vacations. To create the illusion, we worked with Colossal Media to create hand painted murals that turned wallscapes into tropical landscapes.
Role: Worked with concept / environment artist, Aaron Limonick to illustrate surreal, beautiful illustrations of Royal Caribbean destinations. Originally, the team planned on comping together photographs, but I steered them towards hiring a hyper-realist environmental illustrator that would allow us to be more flexible with our perspective, achieve the desired "magical" look, and produce within our timeline. After the illustrator created the digital illustrations, we hired Colossal Media to hand paint the artwork onto Brooklyn walls.
