I founded Supernova Digital Animation Festival, the first annual festival in the world dedicated exclusively to digital animation and motion art, in 2016 as a focal initiative for Denver Digerati. The desire to spearhead a film and media based festival was rooted in my decade long history as a staff member with the Sundance Film Festival, as well as later initiatives hosting curated film screenings through Plus Gallery as well as the MCA Denver. Supernova challenged not only my curatorial sensibilities and understanding of contemporary art, but also my ability to take full control over the visual branding of a festival and to produce a wide range of print based materials including promotional fliers, posters, catalogs, and other items that could promote a sophisticated and coherent design aesthetic. A new theme is developed for the festival each year to dictate the all encompassing design direction.

The following are a limited number of my favorite designs created for Supernova, dating back to 2016.
