Lifestyle Photography Carousels
Concept: To drive home the lifestyles our audience is enacting with, we did several lifestyle shoots in various locations. The images were then developed for IG Carousel and implemented interesting crops in which two images are shown in each “frame” of the Instagram UI. This allows the user to feel like they’re sliding thru a story instead of individual images. Concepts included: Polaroid, Darkroom, Barbershop, Woodshop.

Historical Presence
Concept: Our audience really loved learning about the brand and it’s cast of convict characters. To drive this home we developed multiple extensions on how to show off the interesting history of 19 Crimes. We completed this with two different Instagram stories series’ “Beyond The Bottle,” and “Every Crime Has a Story.”

Covid-19
Concept: We were tasked to create posts that were Coronavirus centric. Examples included: a treasure map leading a person from the sofa to the wine rack in their kitchen, a Zoom call between the 19 Crimes convicts, and a sentimental message for our gang.
