Project Overview

Lane Community College needed to signal to high school seniors and working adults that campus was open and ready to support their futures. The core promise: more financial resources than ever, whether they wanted to study in-person or online.

The concept centered on a visual metaphor: a phone breaking through a paper background, representing Lane literally breaking through with money and support. We paired this with the established "Lane Brain" visual, a recurring asset across Lane campaigns that represents smart students making smart choices. The vibrant color palette of bright blues, neon greens, and rainbow text made the work feel energetic and contemporary, designed for an audience that didn't respond to traditional education messaging.

The Work

I art-directed and designed across multiple formats: digital display ads, social video, a landing page, and video storyboards for TV and digital platforms. The visual system stayed consistent while adapting to different mediums.

The animation work was functional. The phone breaking through paper, the "OPEN" text repeating and shifting, the overlays on live footage all communicated one core idea: Lane is breaking through for you. The established brain icon anchored the campaign visually. Every variation carried the same logic: opportunity supported by smart decision-making.
