To seek out new designs…

Branding

In 2021, I was hired by Compadre to create multiple assets for the iconic Star Trek franchise, including logo design, animation, and motion design toolkits to promote First Contact Day.

2021

As a freelancer, I collaborated closely with the teams at Paramount+ and CBS, engaging directly with them to understand their needs and objectives.

Create original animations and logos for First Contact Day, a live multi-hour event celebrating Star Trek's 60-year legacy and the $10.7 billion brand.

Challenge

With input from CBS, Paramount+, and the producers at Compadre, I developed a live on-air motion toolkit, over 100 logo explorations, and dozens of 3D environments to fully explore the brand’s potential.

Solution

The motion graphics I created earned over 143 million combined views across Paramount+ and YouTube. The logo explorations and 3D environments I developed helped push the brand’s visual boundaries. Check out the livestream here.

Results

First Contact Day

To honor Star Trek's legacy, First Contact Day was celebrated with a live, multi-hour event highlighting the franchise's availability on Paramount+.

I was responsible for developing designs to advertise the event, as well as exploring various environments for the Star Trek logo.
