Oren Aks, a designer and social media consultant, has risen very quickly to fame. This meteoric rise is in thanks or perhaps not thanks to the documentaries released by Hulu “Fyre Fraud” and the Netflix “Fyre”. Both of these documentaries break down the disaster known as the Fyre Festival. Both documentaries put up a mirror to the FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) in the millennial age.

Oren Aks wasn’t aware of what it would become. He was given the task to roll out a social media campaign and boy did he ever. This campaign went viral and orange was everywhere. His use of design, gorgeous photography and smart thinking is only part of the story. Come join us and let him tell you the rest.
