Why I Work
Role: Creative Director | Producer | Director of Branded Content
Client: University of phoenix
Agency: One X Studios

Wells Fargo wanted to discover and celebrate the hard work and determination that has led people to success.
Wells Fargo had been depicting the purpose behind people’s passions. The company — which has touted its “total market” approach and consciously wanted to include more diversity in its advertising. So, we launched a campaign to tell the passions and purpose of prominent African Americans.
The campaign dovetails with the company’s broader “Why I work” efforts.
Our Goal:
Connect with the community by creating a moving series of vignettes that explore the motivations and inspirations driving people from different walks of life.

Not only did we speak to Grammy award winning singer/songwriter Melanie Fiona but we also profiled people achieving within their community.
Jamaica Gimlmer explained that her philanthropic venture, The Beautiful Project, began as a place to give young girls a voice where they previously may not have had one.

the vignettes were authentic and compelling.
