Carnival Row is a neo-noir fantasy web television series created by René Echevarria and Travis Beacham that premiered on Amazon Prime Video.
Nerdist teamed up with Monte Cook Games, Legendary Television, and Amazon Studios to develop an original tabletop role-playing game featuring new characters set within the Carnival Row universe. The project included a five-part behind-the-scenes series, Into Carnival Row, and a one-shot RPG, Carnival Row: The Heist on the Row, which guided audiences through character creation and gameplay.
I collaborated with the Nerdist team to translate the aesthetic of the Carnival Row universe across all digital content outputs, including YouTube thumbnails, opening titles, key art, and Instagram TV posts.
