Driven By—Global Storytelling Platform

Driven By was developed as an ongoing storytelling platform for AlphaTauri, built around athletes, creators, and personalities whose mindset reflected the brand’s values. Each story had its own character, but the platform created a consistent structure across image, film, interview, and social rollout.

Contribution: I developed the platform idea and storytelling framework, shaping the narrative structure, visual approach, creative briefing, and production direction across photography, film, interview, and social rollout.

Selected contributions

  • Developed the creative platform and storytelling framework.
  • Shaped the narrative direction for selected athletes and creators.
  • Directed the visual approach across photography, film, and social assets.
  • Supported production planning, creative briefing, and execution.
  • Created a repeatable content structure for future stories.

Value: A flexible storytelling platform that allowed AlphaTauri to connect product, people, and brand values through authentic personal stories.
