For MTV’s recent global brand relaunch, they wanted to capture real people with unique perspectives
and millennial aspirations. In creating “Skate Life,” I tapped into pro skater Josh Zickert “JZ,” to bring street skating culture to MTV through his life, friends, pursuits, and secret skate spots. As writer, director and designer of the series, I created over 22 TV spots, web content, banners, social media, promos and an iPhone app.

It features streaming RSS news feeds from Thrasher, Skateboarding, Transworld and MTV, and free exclusive songs to skate by from iTunes. You can also upload your own skate spots.
