Social Media
I run Tapas Youtube channel and Tapamons personal Instagram account @tapamon_official.
Working alongside the marketing team I make sure my team is delivering all assets for @tapas_app.
We supply filters, videos, and static images to help grow the channels.
Branding
I have in-house and external partners make the merch designs. I also approve all 3D and 2D animation for Tapas mascot Tapamon. We have style sheets and a large library of assets filled with the mascot and logo designs that are used across multiple teams.
