Insight Construction Rebrand

In late 2022, Insight Construction sought me out to completely revamp their business image, dissatisfied with their previous identity.

In just two weeks, we unveiled a stunning and refined website that perfectly aligned with the business’s goals. Additionally, we crafted a modern and industry-relevant logo, enhancing their brand image.

Shure's Comic Con Partnership

Shure provided sponsorship for one of South Africa’s largest gaming and conventions, Comic Con. Our collaboration with Comic Con included organizing two social media competitions leading up to and during the convention. Participants were encouraged to create a customised design for a Shure podcast microphone specifically used for gaming. This campaign garnered significant attention and received a high volume of entries.

Shure's Takealot Takeover

As part of the strategic initiative to enhance brand recognition and stimulate sales for Shure’s products in South Africa, the company sought opportunities to position itself prominently among industry buyers. Recognising the potential, Takealot was identified as an ideal platform to achieve this objective. A targeted banner ad campaign was executed during the period when Shure products were being incorporated into the platform’s online shopping inventory. Consequently, there was a substantial surge in both consumer awareness and sales figures for Shure’s product range in the local market.

Tech Women Talks Logo Design

Wild & Marr was preparing to broadcast a podcast featuring a female AV specialist as the host, engaging in conversations with women who are actively contributing to the advancement of technology. The podcast sought to strike a balance between asserting a strong presence in an industry primarily dominated by males, while also appealing to a female audience. Consequently, I developed a logo in the form of a neon sign, intended to be prominently displayed above the podcasters during their show. The inclusion of a touch of red within the logo aimed to embody the charismatic and spirited nature of the host.

JBL's Specials & Adverts

A collection of pricing advertisements and specials I have created for JBL professional between 2016 and 2022.

Winners were awarded with their custom-made microphone, chosen based on merit.

Over the course of one month, we were delighted to witness exceptional participation, with nearly 100 individuals entering the competition. Additionally, our brand experienced an impressive level of engagement, as more than 12,000 people shared and interacted with Shure on Instagram.

Shure For You Brand Relaunch Campaign

Shure microphones experienced significant success in South Africa during the 2000s with the rise of televised talent shows. This positioned Shure as the leading brand for achieving excellent sound quality in any situation. As demand evolved, various content creators began to require top-notch audio for videos, radio broadcasts, and virtual meetings, creating new opportunities for Shure to expand its reach.

In 2022, Shure embarked on a nationwide relaunch, targeting industries such as podcasting, gaming, home studios, live music, and houses of worship. The “Shure For You” campaign featured a comprehensive strategy encompassing social media content plans, competitions, in-store activations, refreshed branding, dedicated gaming spaces, and influencer collaborations.
