VP core concept + creative ideation

In 2020, I worked as the Creative Director & producer alongside my best friend, the Director of Photography, to launch Acojolao. Its name refers to a fruit that’s neither too ripe nor too unripe, reflecting where society stands today.

We developed the concept to unite people and spark critical, objective thinking through storytelling and visual art. I led the ideation and execution of interviews and content covering topics like health and medical awareness, education and career guidance, social issues, relationships and mental health, pandemic experiences, identity, and self-reflection.

The project harnessed cultural and community trends to create meaningful conversations, resulting in deep audience engagement and impressive outcomes:

156,000 views on Instagram Reels
690,840 views on TikTok
