I’ve worked with the Toronto International Film Festival (tiff) since 2003, both as full-time Lead Graphic Designer and on an ongoing contract basis, on print, digital and motion-graphic projects. As the Digital Designer, I create pre-show content for their cinemas, HD digital advertisements, and motion graphic idents for tiff industry online programming.

Cinematheque Ontario (now tiff.cinematheque) is renowned internationally for curating the best cinema from all over the globe. My job was to help expand its local audience without alienating its fiercely loyal core audience. This was accomplished via online, print and outdoor advertising, brochures and a seasonal programme guide.

Sprockets Film Festival needed a new visual identity and, after several attempts with agencies, gave me ten days to design a new look and feel for the seven-day event for 4-16 year-olds. Borrowing from their established colour palette, I gave the brand a fresh, energetic look that would connect with boys and girls of any age, and be used across all touchpoints in upcoming years.
