CREATIVE DIRECTION • EVENTHOLLISTER X CODY SIMPSON
PROJECT: Coast House Carnival (Hollister x Cody Simpson)
CLIENT: Hollister
COMPANY: The Cell Mgmt
PROJECT TYPE: Campaign Launch / Experiential Event
ROLE: Creative Direction & Event Production
Hollister teamed up with Cody Simpson to celebrate their collaboration with a launch party at The Roxy in Los Angeles. While working at The Cell Mgmt, I was responsible for the creative direction and entire event production, managing a $250,000 budget and taking the project from concept to execution. I handled everything from developing the concept and designing the experience to coordinating vendors, managing logistics, and overseeing production.
We wanted to bring the feeling of a nostalgic little beach-town carnival to life. The event featured interactive games, food trucks, candy stations, tarot readings, henna tattoo parlors, puppet shows, and live entertainment, ending with an intimate performance by Cody Simpson and his band.
