Vic Mensa, and Why He Deserves a Second Chance (2019) ↗  




Rahul Gowthaman


Art Director and Photographer with 6+ years experience leading art direction and project management across culture-led and lifestyle brands. 
Deep understanding of campaign building, brand storytelling, and creative art direction. 
Skilled at creating culturally relevant work that drives measurable growth in audience, interactions, and sale.
About


I started behind a camera, shooting artists and cultural moments for Highsnobiety, learning how editorial vision translates to a feed and how a single image carries a brand's credibility.

From there I ran media and marketing across D36 and Groupie simultaneously, growing audiences from scratch and delivering viral moments on lean budgets. The skill being built wasn't just content. It was judgment, knowing what lands, and why.

Flight House brought the scale. Clients like Amazon, Paramount, and CeraVe. Real budgets, public stakes. I led creative strategy, managed influencer relationships, and helped define brand identity during these campaigns. 

Then I built Shinko. Brand identity, product, manufacturing, retail, creative direction, all of it. 350K+ views from under 2K followers, 500+ sales in year one.
