Welcome Video: This Is Us

NBC Entertainment Digital

EDITOR & MOTION GRAPHICS

The ASK:

Create a digitally native recap video of the first two seasons of This Is Us.

The SOLVE:

Meet TV’s favorite family in a way we all know and love: family photos. Thinking about the show’s family brand, I took graphic inspiration from photo albums and polaroid photos. Using Adobe Premiere Pro for the basic cut, I built a 3D space housing the cut in After Effects to add interesting depth. Original voiceover from Mandy Moore, Milo Ventimiglia, and Sterling K. Brown guided the story along.

The TELL:

Fans raved about the video.

Mao Yang: “rather than just have a 10-second blurb at the end of each video from a castmember(s), reminding people, they went on ahead and created this masterpiece.”

NancyGooGoo: “Yup, this did it to me again. GET THE DAMN KLEENEX!!!!!!”

Cheryl Mallon-Bond: “OMG‼️ I had goose-bumps the whole time while watching this‼️”
