TBS Final Space

Winner of 3 Clio Awards and Digiday’s Best Live Moment of 2018. TBS’s most engaged with Livestream ever, with a 100% engagement rate!

I had the pleasure of creative directing the social media & digital marketing campaign for TBS’s brand-new, high-priority animated series “Final Space”.

For the campaign’s tent-pole activation, we built a video studio & interactive setup that allowed for real-time capture of an actor to drive the performance of an animated character while he played a game of cards with an audience of thousands of fans. This project has been featured by Adobe at several conferences as a best-in-class example of its Character Animator software.

In addition to the activation, I oversaw the creation of social creative and paid media assets that promoted the show and built its online audience throughout the season.

TBS: Final Space Cards with Gary: Case Study

A first-ever, live-streamed interactive game with an animated character, voice-acted in real-time. Done in partnership with TBS, Olan Rogers, and Adobe.

I handled the creative oversight and designed the technical system that we used to create this magic.
