GOODBYE SUMMER, HELLO FALL 🍂To kick off the month of September, we are excited to recap all the creative content we made and shared throughout the month of August in this issue of our newsletter. As always, we would like to thank our clients and business partners for their endless support and flexibility. |
STUDIO SPOTLIGHT 🌟
Meet Raquel, our graphic design sprout! This summer, Raquel worked closely with our senior illustrator and licensing team to execute design concepts for messaging stickers, Twitter emojis, and Samsung themes.
| “Through real-life projects, I was able to develop my skills in Adobe programs, such as Illustrator, Photoshop, and After Effects. I learned about licensing for digital marketing and distributions and made some pretty cool connections with people working in those industries.” – Raquel Fioroti, graphic design intern at Bare Tree Media |
We are going to miss Raquel greatly and look forward to seeing all the amazing things she accomplishes in her senior year at MassArt! Scroll down to learn more about the personal project she worked on while interning at the studio.
NATIONAL THRIFT SHOP DAY 🛍
We love seeing our summer interns get creative and work on projects that address causes important to them.
#NationalThriftShopDay is not only about supporting local thrift shops but about bringing awareness to their charitable missions. For Raquel’s personal project, she designed a GIF to highlight one of the most popular thrift spots in the Boston area: Buffalo Exchange.
As for what Raquel learned throughout this process, she found that she was able to showcase her design and animation skills, as well as create connections with the Greater Boston community.
“The design team at BTM was very open to me applying and learning skills even outside of my official job title. This project was challenging, but it was very rewarding to be able to bring awareness to shopping locally and second-hand. The best part was the shoutout I received from Buffalo Exchange…that was pretty cool!”
Read below to learn more about the other thrift shops Raquel highlighted (and may even create more GIFs for):
Boomerangs: funds goes to the prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS in Massachusetts
Garment District: provide affordable clothing and costumes, always putting clothes to be recycled and reused, even after being on their racks
Urban Renewals (Family Thrift Center): sell not only clothes, but toys, electronics, furniture, and jewelry too
KEEP CALM AND TWEET ON 🤳
Our design team has been busy designing Twitter branded likes and hashtags for our partners! It’s always amazing to witness how many Twitter users engage with our designs on the platform. See our Twitter Feed for some of the work that was created and released this month.
#HouseoftheDragon
FIRE WILL REIGN. Our design and animation teams had the opportunity to create a branded like to promote the August 21st premiere of the new Game of Thrones prequel, House of the Dragon. We would be lying if we said we were not excited to work on this project!
#NeverDonePlaying
Summer may be over for both parents and kids, but with Nike, you are never done playing. We let our imaginations run wild with this branded like, which gives Twitter users in the UK 24 hours of playfulness and excitement.
#ChickenMac
A branded like for the classic chicken sandwich that needs no introduction! As the exclusive design studio of branded likes for the Middle East regions, we had the opportunity to serve up some (virtual) Chicken Mac in Saudi Arabia.
#GalaxyZFlip4
BRB…just going to casually flex our creative muscles on Twitter with these branded likes created exclusively for the unveiling of the new Galaxy Z Flip 4 phones.
