the work
the work
turned six content categories into one visual system, mapping tiktok's global brand colours, typography, patterns and layout framework onto every content type. i documented every decision so the system could grow without me each category came in four ratios, built as animated after effects files where copy, images and video could be swapped without any after effects knowledge then ran a 1.5-hour workshop with around 30 people from the emea marketing team, walking through every category, asset replacement and edge case built into the system
