Barbie Music Videos

Art directed six Barbie music videos for Mattel at The Beardy Boys, plus a run of American Girl videos, each one start to finish. The Barbie series passed 42.6 million views.

Mattel handed us a concept, a song and the dolls. From there I boarded, designed the sets, roughed out the staging for a Beyoncé choreographer to finish, built 3D assets when needed and directed the team through animation and final delivery. Tens of millions of views say the work connects. Fast, repeatable cycles on tight budgets taught me efficiency, and how to keep client expectations and the work moving in the same direction.
