adidas + Happylucky

I post-supervised and edited educational and social content for adidas Community with Happylucky agency.

  • Worked directly with the Creative Director to shape the narratives for short-form learning modules from large pools of interviews, b-roll footage and still media.

  • Sought and implemented feedback from stakeholders, integrated graphics, project managed the offline, color, online and delivery workflows with a geographically diverse post team nationwide.

  • Organized workloads to meet tight deadlines, including Ruth Carter’s course to coincide with the release of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

  • Edited social cutdowns and different aspect ratios.

adidas Community is a digital network and resource using entertainment and education to create opportunity, access and impact for the next generation of pioneers and rulebreakers. It's a new classroom and window to the world, a space for collaboration and connection, a chance to create the future, starting now.

Los Angeles Philharmonic

For the LA Phil, I collaborated with different stakeholders, including the Senior Brand Director, to capture and edit interview-based content such as a short documentary for their 100th anniversary. I also repurpose footage from a vast archive to compose short-form content for specific target audiences.

“Jamie has generated creative work that resolves our brand strategies and speaks to target audiences. He’s collaborated with members of my team just as much as he’s tasked to work independently with minimal direct supervision. I value Jamie’s sense for storytelling and attention to detail as the video work he delivers is engaging and speaks to our audiences at the LA Phil.”

Assorted Content

I use my sense of timing and pace to look for creative ways to story-tell with unscripted and scripted projects.

 
 

Gibson Guitars

 

For the release of new custom guitars at Gibson, I edit and post-supervise video content. I look for authentic ways to showcase the unique character of a guitar and engage their respective audiences.

Dreamscape Immersive

Dreamscape is a new storytelling medium, giving people the opportunity to step into a story and watch it unfold around them as they explore cinematic worlds, characters and creatures never before thought possible.

I created content for different use cases, devices and audience experiences. Editorial and graphics work included:

  • Developed on-site short video content that guided guests as they embark on VR experiences, which included How to Train Your Dragon and Men in Black.

  • Edited & shot short-form social videos.

  • Made non-standard aspect ratio motion content with original and repurposed footage that ran as billboard advertisements throughout Dubai’s Mall of the Emirates.

 
“I could not have asked for a better creative partner in this scenario to experiment with authentic, organic, and playful ways to convey the Dreamscape experience to localized markets... A combination of right brain ingenuity and left brain organization allows him to simultaneously manage multiple projects from beginning to end. You can trust that he will deliver with poise and professionalism, passion and precision.”
— Jessica Rhoades Figueroa, Previously Director of Content Marketing at Dreamscape

MadRiver Pictures

I edited, produced & post-supervised a 6-episode scripted series with MadRiver Pictures that won best drama director & writer at SeriesFest and screened at Austin Film Festival. In addition to overseeing the month-long production, I also ingested all of the media along the way. I carried the series through editing, visual effects, scoring, sound design and mix, color, and delivery. I also cut the trailer below from the fully produced season.

 

Thank you for your consideration
