Mastercard partnered with Linkin Park co-founder Mike Shinoda to launch its Sonic Anthem, a new branded sound. We captured Mike record a Shinoda-inspired version of the core melody. Later that evening, we filmed Mike during his concert at Boston's House of Blues. While we secured a DOP, we had no time to find a director, so all directing responsibilities fell upon me.

​

After the Sonic Anthem was released, the film was screened at SXSW to introduce Mastercard CMO Raja Rajamannar for a seminar titled "Reimagine Storytelling Through Tech and Experiences." The film also lives on YouTube where it has over 16,000 views.
