Marianas Trench Takeover

Marianas Trench is a pop rock Canadian band. During their 2025 leg of the tour they have decided to give fans access to their official Snapchat account to promote the fan experience. I decided to make a motion graphic with permission from the social media manager when I had access to the account.

​

My Role

Motion graphic designer

​

Assets & Deliverables

A motion graphic compatiable with snapchats stories feature.

This was my first project in Adobe After Effects and working with motion graphics. initially I designed the graphic in Adobe Illustrator and then transferred the project to Ae. I had never tried to design for a social media platform before, so I faced many challenges along the way, but this project proved to be a fantastic learning experience and expanded my knowledge of the Adobe Creative Cloud.

​

This project was designed specifically for Snapchat, but was shared across multiple platforms including Instagram and YouTube.

Hi, I'm Samm Lieberman! I'm a graphic designer. I graduated from Bowling Green State University. I specialize in editorial, advertising and brand design. I've enjoyed learning about color, typography, and the Adobe Creative Cloud, throughout my time at BGSU. I have graduated and am spending my job filling out my portfolio while looking for a job. 

Outside of design work I also dabble in digital, traditional, musical, and fiber arts. I utilize these skills in creating a distinct brand for myself and create expressive pieces of work.​
