Brooklyn Film Festival
Brooklyn Film Festival reflects the raw energy, cultural richness, and grassroot spirit of Brooklyn. Centering stories that are as socially resonant as they are artistically fearless. BKFF tries to empower underrepresented creators, and builds a future where cinema drives connection and cultural innovation.

I explored the rebranding of the Brooklyn Film Festival as part of my Junior branding coursework. The rebrand introduces a design language shaped by Brooklyn’s creative culture. Expressed through a transit inspired typeface, urban-inspired color palette, and a flexible system built to scale across platforms.
