After seeing on social media that Santana needed a Black woman brand strategist, I swiftly threw my hat in the ring with a DM. An Emmy Award winning filmmaker and impact producer, Santana has a passion for telling stories for and about Black women and femmes. This fueled the start of Her/She Productions. She went a couple months with one logo, but wanted to expand for the big screen, preparing to take her brand and its work to various festivals, screenings and impact-focused projects.
Before
For Santana’s brand, she was really clear around exploring the duality of Black women. That we can be soft, rough, quiet, loud, adventurous, and cautious, all at the same time. We aren’t a monolith. We implemented a new method during our research, and looked to some of the public figures Santana lifted up as dreamy brand ambassadors. As soon as she named Teyana Taylor and Jhene Aiko, I knew the vibes immediately. We got to work with a brand strategy, and creative direction.
Strategy
Goal: Rebrand a Black woman-owned production company, and keep its Midwest magic
