STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON

This client project capapulted by Instagram and TikTok accounts receiving 53 million views combined.

The brief from my client was to create a sneaker diorama depicting the story of NWA and their early career. The concept was to make the sneakers look like miniature buildings with murals of the artists’ portraits painted on the walls. It features the doors of their first concert at Skateland, with lights inside the sneaker flooding out from the bottom of the door. References to ‘Straight Outta Compton’ are also featured; scenes of protesters burning their albums, the infamous FBI letter and graffitied lyrics are all included.
