🎮👗 We wrapped up an insightful live interview on “The Fusion of Fashion and Gaming ” with our digital pioneer TRACY GREENAN ★ Greenan last Wednesday. Thank you Tracy for joining our DIGITAL FASHION INNOVATOR Series and sharing your valuable insights and the amazing journey you have been on so far. I'm excited to share some key takeaways and facts from our conversation: 👉 Most important learning: Authenticity and sincerity are key in this space. Being genuinely passionate and purposeful about what you create is essential. What you design should resonate with players, and understanding the aesthetics and communities of each platform/game is crucial in the ever-shifting world of trends and styles. 👉 Design Consistency: Consistency in delivering updates is key. Designers must immerse themselves in the gaming environment to grasp trends and community dynamics. How you market wearables on avatars directly impacts your sales. 👉 Customization and Co-creation: Engaging users in the design process through customization and co-creation is a powerful way to connect with your audience. 👉 Web3 and Gamification: Discord emerges as a vital social channel for web3 and gamification-focused projects. 📊 Key Facts: 💡 Gen Z spends a remarkable 22% of their time on gaming. 💡 The gaming platform Roblox boasts a staggering 62 million daily active users in this digital fashion and gaming space. 💡 This leads up to 200 million monthly active users in these virtual worlds. 🤝 Community Inclusivity: It's crucial for new platforms not to solely focus on large brands but to also include smaller creators, fostering a more diverse and vibrant community. 🌟 Beyond Fashion and Gaming: Tracy Greenan is doing incredible work by founding "Gamers Over Guns", a non-profit organization that offers youths from our most vulnerable communities a powerful combination of tech, design and entrepreneurship with professional leaders in web3 to help them overcome hardship, level up and reach their potential as tomorrow's leaders.

So, ROLEX just dropped a killer ad at the Oscars and, honestly, it's slicker than your average. Dubbed "Every Hero Needs An Ally," this spot was a smooth sail through cinema history, Rolex reminded us why it's not just a watch brand; it's a cultural icon by spotlighting Rolex cameos in hits like "The Iron Claw," "When We Were Young," and "Argo." It's not just a watch—it's a pop culture powerhouse. Flashback to 2017, Rolex did the same thing, blending their timepieces into film scenes that stick with us—think "Titanic," "Apocalypse Now," and "The Usual Suspects." Here’s the deal: this ad's genius lies in its subtlety. Movies? Larger than life. And when you see your fave characters rock a Rolex, it's not just product placement; it's placing the product in your heart and your next dream board. The way Rolex ties it all together, with that narrative finesse, is pure gold. For us in the hustle—whether you're bootstrapping a startup or sketching the next big thing in design—there's a lesson here. You don't have to shout to be heard. Sometimes, it's that quiet confidence, that smooth integration into stories that resonate, which makes the loudest bang. Caught any ads lately that nailed it without trying too hard? Spill the deets! https://lnkd.in/geciTtiY #RolexSwag #OscarsAdGoals #StealthMarketing #CreativeHustle

Nothing better to break a LinkedIn hiatus, than a project announcement 📢 No other project has gave me so much pride and sense of accomplishment. This is for the Maria, that a while back, started dreaming about this path. Motion and animation, above all, is a media; a tool to transform and communicate ideas and stories. This is the story of Romina, but also the story of the struggle of women trying to get back the fundamental rights over their bodies. But I believe it's also about community and support for what's right. It will always amaze me how much we can accomplish when people come together. Quite like this project itself, that started with Bee Grandinetti searching for animators to help her bring this to life. I found myself part of something bigger, touched by the many hands of people I admire deeply, and now we can say we accomplished something together. Thank you to Paola Mendoza, for shining a light right through stories like Romina's, and Bee Grandinetti for allowing me to be part of this and for designing all of this so beautifully.
