“Live For More” Campaign

I led the multi-year creative development of Visit Panama’s Live for More platform, including two distinct campaign rollouts. The 2023 launch reframed the travel ad through the eyes of the traveler—capturing raw, spontaneous moments as if relived in a voice note to a friend. In 2024, we spotlighted Panama’s close-knit diversity, showing how easy it is to experience more, every day.

Ethical and sustainable considerations guided the selection of experiences, locations, and activities, ensuring the promotion of responsible tourism. The campaign drove a 55% jump in spontaneous brand awareness and generated $902 million in tourism revenue in 2023 alone.

Services: Creative direction, design, pre-production, production, on set art direction, post production direction.

“Live for More” Campaign Refresh 2024

For the 2024 iteration of Live For More, we shifted from showcasing diverse experiences to showing travelers exactly where to find them

Panama wanted to emphasize how its compact geography makes it possible to experience striking contrasts—beach to rainforest, city to mountain—all within easy reach. This campaign refresh reinforced that message, positioning Panama as a destination where more adventure is always close by.
