BACKGROUND: I am an artist known for satirical comics about every day life as well as trauma and social issues. After a very successful year in 2020 resulting in me publishing with The New Yorker and Vox and becoming a certified micro-influencer I was tapped by a burgeoning author to architect her digital marketing. The job was was extremely toxic, giving me no time to work on my art or brand and after being overworked and abused, I was illegally fired for reporting racist and homophobic comments from a colleague. When I returned to my platform, I had lost thousands of followers because of lack of activity and I was in a dark place. I met with a coach and decided to rebrand and create a plan for new content that was true to who I am.
PURPOSE: I would like to film a video to tease and mark the launch of the new brand.
THE CONCEPT: I would like to be filmed ‘sleeping’ in bed, and then I sit up, lift of my eye mask, say “I’m back” and smirk. I’d like this to then go to a super cut of all the different content types I will be offering; reels, lives, posts, Patreon exclusives, etc. then it cuts to a text frame with the date of launch.
I have several other videos I need filmed as well if this original project goes well.
