GRAPHIC DESIGN
I began teaching myself how to use Adobe Photoshop in 2019, in 8th grade. I used Photoshop to create designs for a fan account of the New York Jets that gained over 4,000 followers. Since then, I have improved exponentially as a designer and began working for uSTADIUM.
I have created over 250 thumbnails for the uSTADIUM Youtube and Live Network. Here are 40 of them.
Under the moniker JetsIsland, I covered the New York Jets and created over 1,000 posts. In the background are posts welcoming free agents (many of whom did not sign with the team) and in the foreground are my four favorite compositions from the account.
In the sports world, a 'jersey swap' is a graphic created for a player whom someone would like their favorite team to acquire. While working on JetsIsland, I discovered that jersey swaps tended to perform well in terms of engagement, and became proficient in making these images.
My jersey swaps of then-Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence to the New York Jets featured on the Pat McAfee Show, a daily football show that has over 1.8 million YouTube subscribers, on October 19, 2020.
