ACLU

Designing a tool to counter racial injustice

Web Design, Experience Design, Content Strategy, Campaign, Graphic Design

TheUncovery.org is a racial injustice calculator that empowers visitors to discover and share facts from the ACLU report: The War on Marijuana in Black and White. I collaborated with Forest Young, Pete Cenedella, Ranger Studio and the ACLU, to draw attention to the billions wasted on funding racially disproportionate arrests for marijuana possession. The site was a Webby Award Honoree for Best Political Website.

Uncover the facts

We designed a powerful storytelling device: the black redacted bar. By clicking on each redacted line, visitors could “uncover” state-specific facts about marijuana arrests, including the costs for enforcing such laws.

Share Your Dissent

Each statement and fact is sharable across social media. We also connected the addresses of house representatives so that visitors could directly contact their elected officials about these issues.

Redaction Takeover

To promote the site, we brought the redacted line to life across various other communication touchpoints including the ACLU website. We also proposed several out-of-home activations.

AIGA MAKE THINK

Amplifying the AIGA national conference

Branding, Graphic Design, Motion Design

I developed the motion graphics and title sequences for the AIGA MAKE/THINK National Design Conference in collaboration with Sarah Daley and Galya Kay. The conference theme was the designer as creator and strategist. In that spirit, we filmed our design process of making the title sequence, thus revealing our methods of production and thinking. The words ‘Make’ and ‘Think’ were animated using various materials (ink, paper, thread) and integrated with our own live action silhouettes. Music was composed by Tin Hat Trio. The title sequences were awarded the AIGA 365 award for design excellence.
