Max and Maxine
Max and Maxine was a gorgeous 2019 award-winning ad campaign executed by many talented artists at Hornet Inc, in NYC. Directed by the talented Peter Sluszka, the campaign sought to promote a pharmaceutical drug in a creative, innovative, and story-driven way. The project was very ambitious, and the team was able to accomplish amazing things in such a short amount of time. Check out the project below, as well as the contributions I was able to make on the project!
Commercial
As a generalist fabricator/artist I worked on set pieces, props, puppet armatures, and a puppet wig. I also did some painting and set dressing for this multi-award nominated project.
