Excited to kick off 2025 with the talented Roland Lewis on the cover art and graphics for his featured song in the new movie, Homestead! 🌾

Like all of Roland’s music, this track is led by a heartfelt narrative, weaving through life’s ups and downs to show the importance of returning to the people who love and ground us.

For the cover art, we embraced a unique opportunity to draw inspiration directly from Homestead. The design leans into a beautifully eerie landscape, where chaos and calm collide. Plumes of smoke and fiery tones in the distance meet a vibrant green field, symbolizing resilience and beauty amidst fear and uncertainty.

The two chairs in the foreground tell a poignant story: love that has endured until the very end, or two souls who left the face of disaster together. It’s a narrative left to the audience to decide.

This project was a true honor to be part of. Check out Homestead in theaters now, and don’t forget to stream Roland Lewis’s “You & I” everywhere!

Hi everyone! It’s me, the founder of Origin Design Collective, and today we’re marking a major milestone – a whopping 6th business anniversary! 🎉🙌

While most of my clients get to see my mug daily on Zoom or over coffee, I realized I’ve never shared a photo of myself here. So here I am, brimming with gratitude and excitement to share a glimpse into the heart behind Origin.

At Origin, I work closely with my clients, guiding them through a journey of self-discovery or rediscovery. We delve into who they are and why it matters, diving deep into brand strategy and crafting intentional identities.

If you’re looking for a quick fix, sorry to say, you won’t find it here. And that’s okay! Here, we’re all about taking the scenic route, diving deep into the heart of your brand to uncover what truly makes it resonate and the people it’s meant for.

So, who’s the face behind the screen? I’m Sam Jones, your brand whisperer, design aficionado, and the creative mind behind Origin. Standing tall at 5’1”, I’ve spent over a decade honing my craft and soaking up inspiration from many corners of the globe—be it street art, vintage signage, fashion, vinyl covers, clever packaging and world renowned design agencies alike. I’ve learned what works, what doesn’t, and have had the pleasure to get to know many origin stories so intimately. Everyday I help my clients become better storytellers and share what they do with the world.

What’s Next: 👀
I’ve been reflecting on the last 6 years and where I want to see Origin grow. I’ve been adapting, evolving, and perfecting, helping clients’ big ideas take off, differentiating brands, and authentically capturing their unique essence. Look out for new work, design tools and inspo, useful business content, a brand refresh of my own, and a new website – all backed by years of experience to help you understand what branding is and how to harness it for yourself.

But enough about me—let’s talk about you! Whether you’re a seasoned entrepreneur or a fresh-faced dreamer, if you believe in the power of storytelling and genuine connections, then you’re in the right place.

Thanks for being here. 🫶

Feeling incredibly grateful and excited to share that I was invited to speak at Hagerstown’s 2024 Start Up Week, a phenomenal conference for dreamers, doers, inventors, makers, entrepreneurs, and small business owners. Next month marks Origin's sixth year in business, and this was my first solo speaking engagement as an expert to build a workshop and talk about my craft: the power of branding and its ability to make deep connections between companies and their audiences.

Despite speaking, guiding, and presenting to clients daily, this opportunity unexpectedly brought on severe anxiety. So much so that I lost 5lbs in the two weeks leading up to the talk! 😅 My grandmother didn't quite get it, saying, "You're good at public speaking, and you talk to your clients all the time. What’s the big deal?” While I might appear cool, calm, and collected on the outside, inside was a whirlwind of nerves. I always tell students when I review their portfolios and notice them rummaging through their notes to be confident. "No one knows your work better than you do."

So I prepared, practiced, and channeled my passion for branding. When done right, intentional branding helps a business thrive, understand itself and its audience on a profound level, helps companies speak with confidence, and even have the staying power to outlive its founders.

Doing things for the first time is often a chicken-and-egg scenario. We crave validation and confidence before we act – whether it's raising our prices, starting a business, traveling abroad, trying a new sport, or, one of the most common fears, public speaking. But confidence comes after taking the plunge. This experience reminded me that it's been far too long since I did something that truly scared me. And honestly, it felt invigorating. So here's a little reminder: feel the fear, and do it anyway.

All that anxiety buildup, and for what? The talk went amazingly well. It was a small, intimate group, and everyone was engaged. They sat upright, took notes, asked thoughtful questions, and shared their own business struggles. I'm incredibly thankful for my attendees and for them listening to me geek out for an hour.

A huge thanks to Hagerstown Start Up Week for the invitation, my supportive family for being my guinea pigs, and my bestie who helped calm my nerves and celebrate with me afterward. 🌟✨ I think I'm ready for round 2. 😬
