Coach: SMC 2022 Sizzle

June 14, 2022 by Jack in 0 Comments

At this point, we’ve created hundreds of different sizzle reels for brands and artists to help share their creative outputs with high-paced, fun edits, and this SMC 2022 Sizzle I sour latest piece of work for our good friends over at Coach. Our Coach: SMC 2022 Sizzle Reel was created so that store managers could see the progress of the brand and what they’ve achieved in 2022 and was used as the opening film for the store manager’s conference. Edited together with quick cuts and motion graphics we created a unique, fast-paced sizzle reel. Featuring superstars like Jennifer Lopez, Megan Thee Stallion and Kate Moss alongside product close-ups and runway visuals, we showcased all the best that Coach had to offer. We had a lot of creative freedom to push the boundaries with this sizzle reel in terms of color, vibe, filters and effects and were even able to have fun with the Coach logo by coloring and melting it! We're excited for our next creative agency collaboration with Coach and to see how much further we can stretch our creativity. Close

The sizzle reel above highlights the graphics package and brand identity we created for the popular episodic Las Vegas-owned online show. RIOT provided full creative direction on everything from the logo design, brand color scheme all the way through to the motion graphics that add energy and clarity to the productions the Vegas On team makes.
