Meta Discovery Commerce

PROBLEM: Create a unifying art direction for products that come from a wide array of small businesses, while making them feel distinct, unique, and special.
INSIGHT: Discovering a product you love can sometimes feel magical.
SOLUTION: Show products in action, as if they had a life of their own and are appearing right in front of people—ready to be taken by those who will love them.

MY ROLE: Art Direction
For this project, I selected the small businesses and their corresponding products to be featured/shot. I also led and gave direction as to exactly what kind of shot we wanted.

Lego Marina

OVERVIEW: I am a big Lego fan and own a ton of sets and characters. When I went on a trip to Mexico, I created an “activity pack” to keep myself entertained on the plane (I never grew out of play time). In that pack was Lego Marina. I created this Lego Minifigure and began taking pictures of it everywhere I went – the beach, the plane, etc. Shortly after, it became a fun part of my daily activities.

RESULTS: Aside from having fun (which is my main goal), taking pictures of Lego Marina has helped me in several ways:

  1. I’m always thinking of potential shots.

  2. It has made me a better art director and improved my photography skills.

  3. It brings joy to my life and those who follow.

  4. It’s taught me to be resourceful, make quick creative decisions and work with what I have.

  5. It’s taught me to move fast and develop content daily.

  6. It even helped me get freelance work.

MY ROLE: Full creative direction and execution.
