MTV + PARAMOUNT PLUS / SAMPLED

I was brought onboard early in post to art direct, design, and animate all the assets for MTV’s first offering on Paramount Plus. Working closely with Chase & the awesome team at 3Ball- I was tasked with developing a full broadcast package- from titles & bespoke in-show graphics, all the way to crew shirts & assets for MTV’s marketing crew. This one was a total blast from the initial pitch all the way to those last maps. Above is a cutdown of selected show elements.

look & feel

While in production- the crew captured hundreds of hours of material using just about every conceivable recording device with the goal of fortifying the show with texture & vibes immaculate. In an effort to keep things flexible, celebrate the chaos of life on the road, and to use as much of their material as possible- I developed the concept “4am in Dotonbori.” A neon-soaked living travelogue filled with half-memories and distorted travel logistics filtered through a healthy macro-dose.

 
 

DESIGN EXPLORATION

For everyone, the design of the show elements were critical. We spent a lot of time & energy exploring in the design phase to arrive at our final look & feel. Featured here are some initial looks, concepts, and design exploration.

 
 

THE PITCH

There were a few folks with their hats in the ring on this one- so, I had to come correct. Shown here are some selects from my spirited sprint to impress the crew. ( it worked )
