Brief

As the Art Director for Triller and Triller Fight Club, I oversee creative for a series of boxing + entertainment events in their entirety including all marketing leading up to the event, the in-stadium experience, and the broadcast graphics.

In my role I design key art, create a large amount of the design work spanning all mediums, and provide art direction to a team of creatives to produce all of the necessary marketing, event, and broadcast assets.

Events & Talent

Notable events include Mike Tyson’s return to the ring vs. Roy Jones Jr (the 8th most purchased boxing PPV of all time), Jake Paul vs. Ben Askren, and Evander Holyfield vs. Vitor Belfort. These events combine boxing with unforgettable performances from top-tier artists like Metallica, Justin Bieber, Snoop Dogg, Doja Cat, Wiz Khalifa, and more.

Deliverables

For each event, I led my team to create a full suite of creative assets, starting with the marketing of the event including social media campaigns, SMS marketing, email blasts, billboards, performance marketing, etc.

While marketing the event, we also balanced the creation of a considerable amount of large format print assets for things like event backdrops, hotel takeovers, and ring graphics.

For the event itself, I designed and oversaw creation of motion graphics for all of the stadium LEDs, jumbotrons, and exterior arena screens for venues like The Staples Center, Barclays Center, and the Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden as well as on-air motion graphics for the broadcast itself.
