The Project
#DivestFactoryFarming is a campaign initiated by Friends of the Earth in a partnership with a coalition of organizations that defends the rights of indigenous communities, animals, and forest preservation. The campaign, executed on Twitter, targeted big banks involved in investing resources in companies that are deforesting the Amazon rainforest for cattle heads.
My Role
About my role in this project, I partnered with FOE's Design and Multimedia manager to design and art direct the campaign within the deadline established by the coalition. The images below were the initial drafts. They culminated in one of the images seen in the mock-up above.
