Cool King® “Lemon Velvet” Yogilato Motion Graphic & Flavor Card
Do you know what “Yogilato” is? This amazing combination of frozen yogurt and gelato brings an added creaminess to already delightful flavor sensations. For the sound design of this advertisement, I remixed a NERD & Rhianna collaboration called “Lemon”. I was inspired to do this based on the fact that this flavor is in some…

“Cap’n Crunch Ice Cream” Motion Graphic and Flavor Card for Cool King®
With this project, I compiled audio samples from vintage Cap’n Crunch television ads into a golden goulash of gilded audible greatness guaranteed to grant a trip down memory lane for those who’s youth was spent being ritualistically mesmerized by the “Boob Tube” each Saturday morning. In my mind, this was the “heyday” of gripping advertising.…

Cool King® “Open Easter” Motion Graphic for Social Media and Post Dialog
Cool King requested a post announcing they were open Easter Sunday and to announce customers would receive 10% off their purchase in celebration of the holiday. With the motion graphic, my intent was to give the feeling of a moving coloring book page. This is what I posted the day before Easter. On Easter I…

Cool King® “Hawaiian Delight” Sorbet Advertisement
I definitely have an affinity for things related to island life. Something has always called me. Specifically how Hawaii was portrayed in mid-century popular culture. With this advertisement, I riffed off my sentiment of nostalgia. In some ways it’s my homage to how the co-opt of a culture (i.e. the Tiki movement that became popular…

Visions by Ehsan “Purchase with Purpose” Campaign
Once Ehsan’s storefront was up and running, I wanted to show how we could promote certain products using Instagram stories.

Cool KIng® “Vegan, Non-dairy Options” Advertisement
Cool King’s owner, Rob, asked me to put something together to announce that they offer at least (5) Vegan friendly, non-dairy options on a regular basis.

Cool King® Rain or Shine, We’ve Got You Covered
I got the idea for this post after taking the photograph seen in the advertisement. I was raining, and I thought it might be funny to play on the fact that the “To Go” lid is actually a built in umbrella on days like these. With the sound design, I went with the classic “Singing…

Cool King® “Surf City’s Premier Dessert Destination” Advertisement & Post Dialogue
With this advertisement I wanted to show some hometown pride. I figured I’d give a shout-out to Huntington Beach’s deep roots in surf culture — it is known as “Surf City”. I took the photo of the shop the day after there was a big rain. I thought the cloud formations added a nice element…

Cool King® “Pistachio” Almond Milk Yogurt
For this ad, I was searching on the web to get inspired by something that shocased the word “Pistachio” and I stumbled across this comedian/musician named Tom McGovern. For the sound design I did a remix using the song he did in his skit about “Pista-CHEE-o” being “da’ best nut”. Please support Tom in all…

Cool King® “Totally Awesome Chocolate Overload” Ice Cream
This is the rebrand I did for Cool King’s “Chocolate Overload” Ice Cream. I can remember how much fun it was to show up at the local arcade with a pocket full of quarters. Upon entering the darkened den, you’d be bum rushed by a tidal wave of spazamatic digital boinks and binks, eruptions of…

No script, no direction, just document…

Cool King® “Snickerdoodle Ice Cream” Advertisement
By happenstance, I stumbled upon this 1960s French Pop song “Zou Bisou Bisou” by Gillian Hills. It inspired this advertisement for Cool King’s “Snickerdoodle” Ice Cream. For fits and giggles, I wrote the ad copy in a humours “sing-songy” nursery rhyme style.

Vici Wellness Product Photography
I had the opportunity to take product photos for Vici Wellness to use for their online store. They requested all product photos to have transparent backgrounds and they wanted the transparency of surfaces to function as in real life. This meant, if an item was glass, the underlying color the image was placed over needed…
