objective / context
To introduce Endrick as a founding member of GEN / EA SPORTS, we developed a premium editorial in partnership with SoccerBible and New Balance that explored who he is beyond the pitch. The work highlighted Endrick not just as a rising football talent, but as a person shaped by the grounding forces around him: family, friends, faith, gaming….and two hyperactive pups.
NARRATIVE FRAMEWORK
Designed as a cultural storytelling moment rather than a traditional athlete feature, the project centered on dual narratives of “Cold Focus” and “Bold Intimacy” — balancing Endrick’s aggressive on-field mentality with his quieter, more introspective nature away from the game.
Through long-form editorial writing and cinematic video vignettes, we created a body of work that positioned Endrick as part of a new generation of athletes navigating pressure, purpose, and visibility on their own terms.
The collaboration demonstrated how EA SPORTS can live at the intersection of sport, gaming, and culture — using storytelling craft and thoughtful distribution to deepen fan connection and reframe how audiences engage with next-gen athletes in moments beyond competition.
