"Keep It Cool!" Campaign
Tyler Clementi Foundation
Striking a balance between a vibrant visual aesthetic and the seriousness of harassment prevention needed to be achieved so as to not alienate viewers.
The Tyler Clementi Foundation wanted a social media strategy for a summer bullying prevention awareness campaign that united Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram content.
We delivered an '80s-inspired campaign mark and social media assets that invoked summer vibes to provide some visual levity for fundamentally serious messaging.

Type That Connects
Using unique typography that recalls the cool colors of the summer season as well as 1980s style, the “Keep It Cool” campaign delivered fun energy that engaged a broad user base across Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
Bringing in Business
In addition to program messaging, the campaign was able to loop in companies such as Bud Light and frozen treat maker Enjoyer with the theme. This provided opportunities to expand reach and discover new avenues for fundraising. The campaign included video tie-ins, unique original photography (via LA’s Our Productions), and a broad-reaching digital strategy.
Is there a difference between print and digital design?
Put simply, print design is collateral design, meant for physical assets, while digital design is for electronic dissemination. Beyond that, there are differences in the designs we create for each channel. Considerations like text size, colors, and readability vary across formats.
Can you work with our existing brand guidelines?
Absolutely! We tend to work within existing brand guidelines. This helps ensure your materials feel like an extension of your brand.
What do you need from us to start?
Coming to us with an idea is a great start! If you have clear goals, a defined audience, brand materials, or inspiration, that can help too. In our initial discovery phase, we’ll clarify if we need any additional materials before getting to work.
Can you print materials?
While we don’t do in-house printing, we can help you get your materials printed! This includes having final printed materials sent to you or printed near you for pickup. In the design process, we ensure your files are prepared to be sent to printers by ensuring correct sizing, bleeds, and file packaging.
Is email marketing still effective?
Yes. Email remains one of the best ways to communicate with supporters who already care about your mission. It enables personalized outreach, targeted segmentation, and automation for consistency and engagement.
