SQUATTY
POTTY

Between September 2019 and February 2020, I art-directed a website redesign and two social media ads for Squatty Potty, through the creative agency Diamond Hook Media.

WEBSITE REBRANDING

I art directed Squatty Potty’s new website rebrand photoshoot in 2019. The goal for their new direction was to maintain Squatty Potty’s humorous roots, while updating them to match the aesthetics of modern wellness brands. Below, you can see some of my early concept sketches on the left, and the final photos on the right.

VINCE
WARNE
b. 1995

Hi. I’m Vince Warne, an artist and designer interested in narrative, technology, and film.. After graduating from Wesleyan, I worked in the film industry until COVID-19 hit, then joined Interlace Inc, a Lightspeed-funded startup, as Creative Director. After leaving Interlace I created, marketed, and sold an NFT artwork for 17 ETH earlier this year.

Since then, I’ve done illustration and animation for clients including The Browser Company, Lexus, and Starling Labs. I’ve previously worked with the agency Diamond Hook Media as an art director on photo+video shoots for Squatty Potty and Obviously. I’ve also worked as an art director, animator, and set dresser on feature films and shorts which have gone on to premiere at Sundance and Locarno.

I’m passionate about film, and film writing; I am an editor at The Millennium Film Journal and have been published in Film Comment Magazine. I post daily AI-generated artwork imagining movies that don’t exist on an Instagram called Fourth Eye Film Archive, the successor to an interactive website I built early in the pandemic to raise money for shuttered theaters.

I’m currently seeking a full-time position in NYC or remote, in a role related to design, branding, and/or art direction. Drop me a line if you’d like to chat.
