The ADCOLOR Conference

Presented by Facebook, and Google & YouTube 2020 | Virtual

The theme for this year’s conference, “Pull Up”, was about turning words into deeds every single day. ADCOLOR’s virtual platform shared the opportunity to go beyond the conference and dispense content. And we delivered by producing experience boxes for our attendees ensuring we gave a nod to our fellow Black and Brown owned businesses.

Spotify X Burna Boy

Presented by Spotify 2019 | Brooklyn, NY

The installation Burna Bank was in collaboration with Spotify who had recently launched their Afro Hub “celebrating diverse music, cultures and communities.”

Inspired by Burna Boy's latest studio album, African Giant, we featured a unique ATM dispensing custom collectible bills designed by artist Sajjad Mussa. Each bill was inspired by Burna Boy's Nigerian roots and his quest to call out corruption in the disproportionate distribution of wealth.

Although the Burna Boy Banknotes did not hold monetary value, they represented “the collective will to overcome oppression and build wealth” and for that, we stand!

YouTubeBlack Brand Summit

Ponce City Market - Atlanta, GA | 2019

Empowering brands and creators to evoke change on their platforms, our 3 day event was held in the HOTlanta, where we took over the Moxy and AC Hotels and Ponce City Market.

We partnered with local black-owned businesses including food trucks, dance troupes, makeup brands, leather vendors, and tea shops. 

We curated three unforgettable content, aligning brands and avertisers with their preferred target audience and equipping them with different ways to target Black creators.

Special moments include: a family reunion-style BBQ, a retro Glam Suite, a night of skating at the legendary Cascades and performances by skate crews and step teams and ending with an afrobeats afterparty and a night of carnival games and fun at Skyline Park.

YouTubeBlack FanFest

Presented by YouTube 2018 | Howard University, DC

This corporate initiative sought to support and amplify the voices of creators of color. In producing a festival-style concert at Howard University, our red carpet affair led into a super lit two-hour concert.

You know we had to bring out the best in comedians, vocalist and steppers.

HU’s “Showtime” Marching Band, kicked off the show, featuring musical performances by Ari Lennox, Ceraadi and Jhené Aiko; comedy from KevOnStage and TPindell and interactive hijinks from Dormtainment (who hosted the show)!

We created a unique game show, Family Feud Noir, and included surprises and spectacles such as “durag cannons”- (firing durags into the crowd) - and is it really a link up if we don’t hit that “Swag Surf”?
