The Future Me Family
In 2022, during my final year at Medieinstitutet, it was time for my second internship. I was fortunate enough to be a part of The Future Me Family for 16 weeks. Our consisted of five people: Tim Winter Co-founder & CD, John Peterson Co-founder & CEO, Olov Svedjeland Digital Designer & AD, Arancibia Lattapiat Project Manager & SoMe, Josefin Götborg Project Manager, and myself as a Content Creator. My tasks ranged from redesigning their website and creating hand-drawn icons, to producing social media content and animations.
Redesigning the Website
The First Weeks
Tim, Olov, and I formed the creative team. We worked together on various projects as well as on our individual tasks. During my 16-week internship, we accomplished a lot. The first part of my internship was focused on redesigning their website. While Olov worked on creating the brand guidelines I worked on implementing them and the new design in WiX. They wanted a one-page layout with only a few case studies and hand-drawn icons to make visitors feel welcome.
Future Connections
Creative Ways to Connect
We worked a lot on coming up with creative ways to reach potential clients and to provide them with a smooth customer journey. I designed templates for cost estimates and calling cards, and worked with Tim and Olov to create a questionnaire and specific landing pages tailored to different companies we wanted to work with.
Animation & Socials
Creating Content
As we all know, social media is important to connect with followers, fans, and clients. At Future Me we wanted to post about one post per week, but only if the content was meaningful. We worked together on many of the social media projects, and regularly had brainstorming sessions and progress checkups.
Procurement
East Sweden
A big part of the work I did during my time at Future Me was for East Sweden, Östra Götalands County. Together with Olov, I worked on a series of animated E-learning videos for emergency response personnel. We worked mostly in Premiere Pro with our own recorded voiceovers, and existing material to create the videos. Where there was content missing we created new scenes and assets in After Effects. We also worked on one of East Sweden's informational videos that you can watch here, where we added graphic elements and lower third graphics.

The Breakout - Short Film
"The breakout gives a voice to the frustrated and unseen individuals who lost their voice and ability to act during the pandemic. [...] At some point we need to remember where we have come from." - Tim and Steve - Creators of the Breakout I got to be a part of the beginning of this project both on set as a Makeup Artist and as an Illustrator.
