The Apprentice

Ideation and design for the marketing campaign of The Apprentice, in collaboration with Studio Pending. A portrait of the rise of a young Donald Trump under the mentorship of cutthroat lawyer Roy Cohn in 70's and 80's New York City, the provocative film from Ali Abassi debuted at Cannes and earned two Academy Award nominations for Best Actor (Sebastian Stan), and Best Supporting Actor (Jeremy Strong). Campaign work spanned print, digital, OOH, and stunts.
