MURDER BY THE BOOK COFFEE SLEEVES
CONTEST PROMOTION | COPY
To promote their new TV series “Murder by the Book,” Court TV partnered with a nationwide bookstore to hold a crime writing contest that encouraged the public to write a novel where the winner could score a publishing deal. To get the word out, custom coffee sleeves were placed in the bookstore’s cafes. With limited space, I incorporated shock value to grab consumers' immediate attention. On each of the sleeves I displayed the customizable drink check boxes featuring everyday coffee jargon with a criminal twist.
Sleeve #1:
REGULAR. DECAPITATED.
Are your thoughts darker than your coffee? Then write about them!
Sleeve #2
MILK. SUGAR. CREMATION.
Are your thoughts darker than your coffee? Then write about them!
DREAM STREET
SALES CATALOG | ADULT COLORING BOOK
To promote MarVista's newly released kids' program "Dream Street" at the highly attended MIPCOM trade market, I worked with a limited marketing budget to re-imagine a brochure to get buyers excited about the program. The idea: combine the fun of being a kid with the popularity of adult coloring books (complete with MarVista branded crayons). Buyers could color their way to calm as they learned more about Buddy the Magical Truck and his friends.
DREAM STREET
INTERACTIVE TRADE MARKET BILLBOARD
To create PR buzz for MarVista's newly released kids' program "Dream Street" at the highly attended MIPCOM trade market, I re-imagined the outdoor billboard to connect with a person's inner child. We made the billboard interactive to have the conference attendees color in the cast of characters and post a photo of their "artwork" on social media for a chance to win a prize.
PARCO P.I.
MAILER CONCEPT
Court TV was introducing their upcoming reality show "Parco P.l." for ad sales clients and media partners. The show featured a cast of crazy characters with Vinny Parco, a New York private eye at the helm. I was tasked to come up with a mailer to promote the show. Since Vinny Parco was a loud-mouthed, bald, undercover investigator, my idea was to bring back a custom version of the retro Wooly Willy toy where the goal was to move the “hair” around the board to “disguise” the private eye. This toy introduced people to Vinny Parco in a humorous way while allowing it to have some longevity as a fun keepsake.
MARVISTA 15 YEAR ANNIVERSARY
CAMPAIGN COPY + DESIGN
To announce MarVista's 15 year anniversary at MIPCOM 2018, I created the marketing campaign for Print, Online and Outdoor. To celebrate the hundreds of movies produced in a variety of genres, I incorporated humor with a nod to the outrageous, funny and touching moments.
