👋🏻 I’m Rapolas, Sr. Art Director
Currently at Vans
Previously at AKQA
A total of 7 years of experience from both sides of the fence: agency & brand

Nike, Rolls-Royce, Sky, Gucci, Dickies, EA, RTL.
These are some of the clients I’ve worked with
‍
My skills lie in concept and art direction for video and photography, image making and branding. I’m quite hands on, but I also love guiding the transformation of an idea to an image, product or experience in the hands of collaborators

Right so this campaign was a portrait piece of Willow, a young skater from Germany

It was part of a global brand campaign for Vans, which highlighted skaters and musicians from around the globe, through the lens of style

Style in a broader sense though

Not just clothes, shoes and hair

But also their chosen craft and their philosophy on life 💭

What I loved most about this project was the possibility to include Willow's home crew. They held their breath as he bailed multiple times while trying to land crazy tricks in front of a busy crowd in central Berlin, along with a video crew of 30 people off-screen, working against the clock

It's really cool to see kids support each other in such an authentic way

Gives me hope for the future haha
