Twitch
2017–2019
In 2017 I joined the the world class creative team at Twitch as a Motion Graphics Designer to work with the mighty Matt Gravish and Tim Reynolds. A challenging two years on hard mode. GG!
TwitchCon 2018
Every year the Twitch community congregates in meatspace to celebrate the culture of multiplayer entertainment. I worked with Freeman, ETS and Twitch Studios to bring all the broadcast, stage, and party graphics to life.
All your base.
Twitch x Signalnoise
2018
Twitch x Signalnoise was a first-ever collaboration between Twitch Private Label and an external artist. I had the privilege of crafting a series of stories that ran on Twitch’s IG. For a detailed breakdown of all the products, check out the massive case study here.

E3 on Twitch
E3 is the world’s premier event for computer and video games and related products. Every year the industry’s top talent pack the LA Convention Center, and every year Twitch streams the event for the pleebs who can’t make it out to LA.
Twitch Crates
Twitch Crates was an attempt to add a familiar game mechanic, the “loot drop”, to the experience of purchasing games and in-game content on Twitch. I was a part of designing the crate and storyboarding the opening sequence, but the people at Skyreacher took over and produced a sequence 100x better than what I could ever do.
My first attempt (above) and two more (below) with a stronger sci-fi slant, which didn’t get very far.
The final crate design from Skyreacher. Sure looks familiar…
A couple months after launch someone let me make this Halloween themed opening animation. Environment and zombie hand by the prolific Tim Reynolds.
Video Producer
Video Producer is a set of tools that gives creators more control over pre-recorded content, giving them the ability to schedule first-viewing events, creating an experience much like an opening night for a movie.
Charity Cheermote
Riffing off the existing Bits cheermotes, these charity cheermotes weren’t met with that glowing light of approval and were subsequently banished into the darkness of exile. RIP.
