Malware Bytes – Social Media Ads

Client: Malware Bytes.

Animation + Design: Mark Aguilar

Malwarebytes needed eye-catching social content that highlighted the risks of unsafe browsing while promoting its trusted protection software.

As designer and animator, I created a series of bold, text-driven ads built around punchy headlines, graphic iconography, and a consistent brand palette.

The result was a cohesive campaign of animated and static pieces that cut through crowded feeds, reinforced brand trust, and drove awareness of Malwarebytes as a reliable security solution.

The ads were designed with a bold, minimal style—anchored by oversized typography, flat iconography, and a clean blue-and-gray palette drawn from the Malwarebytes brand. The conversational speech bubble layout paired with simple, high-contrast graphics created a fast-read design language that felt approachable while still underscoring the urgency of online protection.

Some of the illustrations were provided by Malware Bytes.

These early concepts tested different visual approaches—varying typography, icon treatments, and layouts—to find the balance between playful attention-grabbing and the serious message of online security.
