ABOUT THE WORK
Press kits are essential for emerging artists to present their work in an easy, downloadable format. Designed to promote Megan as a choreographer, teacher, and artists, she wanted a comprehensive document highlighting all areas of her brand. The press kit was designed on Canva.

THE NOUVEAU SUDS PROJECT >>
Directed by UNC Charlotte professor, Carlos AlexisCruz, Nouveau Sud is a contemporary social circus initiative rooted in the “underground” dance/acrobatic/physical theatre scenes present in the vast array of cultures in the urban regions of Charlotte. Through physical language — dance, movement, and circus — these communities tell stories of their struggles, histories, traditions, transformations, and iconography, as they examine the idea of what it is to be a citizen of the ‘new’ south.

I designed a website for the company through Squarespace, transferring the domain and email from their former, unused site. The website scope also including taking new headshots for the company page.

Instagram specific campaigns focused on his “Suspension” movement series of local, professional dancers and portraiture work of business personnel, friends, and local personalities. Campaigns were scheduled through Hootsuite.
