3 Things About Twitter FFWD2016

1. It was Twitter’s first original content series

#FFWD2016 is driven by a philosophy to feature people who are causing up-to-the-minute cultural shifts with stories shaped by their future hopes for themselves and the world. The content is engaging, sometimes funny, sometimes heartwarming, sometimes exciting – and always inspiring. Mentioned as ADWEEK’s Ad of the Day,


2. We profiled international stars who defined the Twitter Video persona

Featuring diverse creatives such as 19-year-old wunderkind DJ Martin Garrix, Louvre-approved street artist JR and Young Turks’ resident genius Ana Kasparian. We shot in worldwide locations from Los Angeles to Dubai to NYC to Atlanta. With a small, but nimble team of filmmakers, we produced 7 videos in one extremely fast-paced month.


3. It was the beginning of a year-long content partnership with Twitter

Led a team of producers, shooters, animators and editors to create some awesome Twittery content, especially these videos from VidCon 2016 directed by Van Neistat.
