Snapchat Discover

For eight months in 2017, I collaborated with a small team to launch the Washington Post's Snapchat Discover channel. We were one of the first hard news sources on the platform and focused on reaching a younger market.

All "top snaps" were produced, designed, and animated on a daily deadline and turnaround. We released editions daily but also updated existing editions with breaking news.

A couple of full-length, 10-second top snaps with audio.

The visual style we leaned into gave the team an opportunity to use quirky illustrations and visuals, and I picked up some basic animation skills along the way.

Each daily edition included a main story, which we highlighted in the thumbnail displayed on the Snapchat Discover homepage.
