Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend is a comedy podcast hosted by comedian and former late-night talk show host Conan O’Brien, along with his longtime assistant Sona Movsesian and producer Matt Gourley.
I work closely with the podcast’s executive team and producers to design and maintain the visual identity through a range of brand assets, including YouTube thumbnails, on-screen graphics, and campaign materials for the Quinquennial Celebration.
“Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend: Quinquennial Celebration” was a year long campaign celebrating the podcast’s fifth anniversary. The milestone event included a limited-edition vinyl highlighting the show’s five-year run and a live show at The Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles.
As part of the anniversary campaign, a live recording of the podcast was held at The Wiltern Theatre, serving as the centerpiece of the celebration.
I designed show graphics and merchandise, including posters and t-shirts, drawing inspiration from The Wiltern’s iconic Art Deco architecture to visually tie the event to its historic venue.
