Adobe teamed up with photographer Matt Crump for this series of Photoshop + Adobe Stock tutorials and social media ads. Getting paid to work on something for Adobe – a brand I’ve been giving money to in since I was 17, felt full circle.

This was one of the many projects where my being on set paid off big time in the cutting room. Initially just editor, I asked to tag along on the one-day shoot and wound up art directing. I also solved multiple production challenges on the fly, using my post-oriented brain. We had the unicorn mask which never comes off in front of the audience (where do you put the mic?) and a very small crew. I also appreciated that Matt gave me so much creative freedom with the social media content and all the motion graphics. I mean…that wand ✨ He loved it.
