The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon
Working at The Tonight Show, I worked on the Graphics team creating a host of animated onscreen graphics to assist with a variety of ongoing bits. Everyday the whole crew would meet as a team and discuss the bits that would be featured that day, and from there we'd assess the specific graphics needs. Once assigned to my workload for the day, we'd sprint to a 4pm deadline for dress rehearsals. During rehearsals we'd check all the graphics and take in any feedback or edits. We'd then spend the rest of the day tweaking and fixing up everything to get ready to go on air that night. It was truly the definition of a fast-paced environment and I loved the variety and levity of the work I got to create. Take a look at some of my favorites below.

MAD LIB THEATER
The brief for this piece was to create a composite image showing a nice summer day that looks like it'd be the view out of a window of a nice house. I came up with a few concepts and then worked on photo researching to find images that fit my ideas. Then I created this composition ensuring the perspective and lighting was all consistent while still selling the brief.
PICTURE THIS
For the Picture This bit, I was given the joke copywriting and was tasked with creating animated graphics to match. I made this instagram graphic with a loading screen reveal.
TONIGHT SHOW #HASHTAGS
I was tasked with creating Tweet graphics for a bit about #AddAWordRuinASportTeam. I came up with this consistent suite of visuals to be used throughout the bit.
