Role: Motion Design / Art direct assist
Creative:
Klarna and Lady Gaga’s makeup brand, Haus Laboratories combined forces to create The Studio: an invite-only, influencer/creative space in Los Angeles. co-founder of Safety Third Productions, Shimmy Boyle approached me to create a “retrto TV station” playing collaged mash-ups of both brands’ fashion/beauty/sexy/eccentric content on an endless loop. We worked together to layer the multiple worlds together, mixed with a splash of 70s vintage salon footage in an all-encompassing provocative punk-MTV quirk fest! Creating these patchwork worlds was the most fun I’ve ever had working on a job to date.
