THE ANTHEM FILM

Using interviews with each photographer, the anthem film is a relfection of what the @apple account is all about - community and eclectic perspectives.


THE IPHONE PHOTOGRAPHERS

Using photos from 38 iPhone photographers, we created short films that were placed in 8 carousels. These are a few of my favorites.




PHOTO BRIEFS

To continue engagement with the account, we created a series of photography briefs. Users submitted photos, shot on their iPhone's, related to the brief's subject and a week later the best photos would be shared on @apple.




THE SPONSORED POST

To help get the word out, we created a sponsored post on Instagram to give a sneak peak of the @apple account.
