1. PERSONAL BRAND EXPLORATION
Hunter Meredith
Project & Portfolio I: Week 3
July 28th, 2019

2. The oldest of two siblings, Hunter grew up in
Alpharetta Georgia. Unlike most kids who played
football or other traditional sports, Hunter grew
up on motorcycles. However after getting in a
serious accident, he was forced to reevaluate
what he wanted out of life. It was then he found
himself inside more, playing video games,
making friends all around the country. Hunter
found a passion for meeting new people and
making others laugh. Hunter wants to take his
drive to make others happy, and help bring
esports viewers more fun and enjoyment out of
watching the games they play everyday.

14. Fullie Salen
You know how the rodeo fanbase has been
gradually slipping over the past decade? Well,
what I do is produce personal brand stories that
entertain and inspire American families to celebrate
remarkable feats of bravery within professional bull riding. In fact, after
serving 10 years as a U.S. Marine, I produced a short film that helped a
local cattle feed store increase their brand awareness online by 500% in just
one month. Customers often referenced my video as the reason they
decided to shop at the retail store.
