CAMPAIGN:
Antonio López for Board of Supervisors (2024)
San Mateo County
OBJECTIVE:
A series of videos to introduce Antonio to his constituents, tell the story of his journey into public service, and short videos about Antonio's platform and candidate strengths to be used as paid ads.
STYLE:
I wanted to develop a brand style/aesthetic that parallels Antonio's charm-- with authenticity and optimism.
*All videos directed and edited by Anthony Solorzano.
Antonio's Story
The key video of Antonio's campaign before his November 2024 election. We saw this as a way to introduce Antonio to the world, highlighting his humble upbringing, family values, academic journey, and young political success.
I did not want to focus on platform agendas here, but instead wanted to tell his story on a deeper emotional level that would resonate with his audience. Antonio is a great guy and I wanted people to feel that.

MORE Political Campaign Videos
Here are some commercials I created for a local political candidate. These are great for use on social media platforms. Also, these were particularly challenging, since they were done during the COVID pandemic, so I resorted to candidate photos, headshots, and stock footage.
