@jason_swet: You don’t have to wait till you’re a creative director to create the work you want to see in the world. 1. Develop a concept (think Insight + Idea + Visual direction) 2. Recruit friends (make friends if you don’t have friends) 3. Book a studio space (they are surprisingly affordable. Check out @Peerspace) 4. Shoot 5. Design 6. Mockup insitu Now you have a full campaign you could put in your portfolio! And it’s as real as what you would do on the job. That’s how you’re going to get hired. Huge thanks to my friends for showing up: 📷 @garrettking.co 📷 @meganjtaylorr 👑 @Sumer Rayne 👑 @ben 📹 @Taylor Lewis 🖥️ @Nevarez Highly recommend booking @Oswaldo Cepeda’s Studio in LA if you ever need a great space. The perfect sandbox to create in. Who knows if @Oakley will ever see this, but if they do, we’ve got the crew ready here in OC/LA for their next campaign shoot 😉
