In 2021, I was hired at Complexity Gaming as their Senior Graphic Designer. They were undergoing a restructure of their art department, by hiring myself and an another designer to replace their existing staff that had recently exited the company.
I worked through any and all graphic and visual communication needs, including digital, print, broadcast and web projects. I'll be highlighting a few projects through this section.
I designed the Rocket League competitive decals, featuring Lenovo Legion and the Complexity branding. These decals were available for purchase on the Rocket League Esports Shop.
I handled most of the social promotion for our competitive teams, the above is a post announcing the new VALORANT Game Changers roster. This is a league that supports marginalized genders in the esports space.
When promoting our online competition, I often had to coordinate with our 3D generalist to obtain renders of in-game assets. I would take those assets and turn them into social media graphics and various advertisements.
Here is an example of a 3D render in a social promo, opposite of one with player photos.
Complexity had a division devoted on supporting and promoting traditional athletes to our gaming audience. They attempted to bridge the gap of gaming fans and traditional sports fans. When making graphics for the various athletes, I had to coordinate with their agents and their respective sport media outlets.
Alongside gaming promotions, I was often asked to create fully branded posts, when a partner would "takeover" our social media channels. This is an example of one I did for Denny's, who did a series of streams highlighting some of Complexity's streamers.
