THE POWER OF THE GAULEY

Recent work for @germanicreative // @new_and_gauley_river_adv

The Gauley River is a world-class whitewater rafting experience. In coloring this project, I developed a bright, punchy look that brings out the beauty of the natural landscape which rafters travel through, and also highlights the thrill of a whitewater rafting adventure. Since this film was targeted for an online release, I wanted to make sure it popped and grabbed the attention of viewers. The Gauley River has a deeply invested community surrounding it, and it was amazing to hear the positive reception following the film’s release. The whole process for this film was a ton of fun from start to end. I love projects like these where I can lean into the beauty of what is already present, and bring it to its full potential.
