Book Cover Design Challenge
I decided to test myself with a design challenge by doing my own cover art designs for some of my favorite books. All Images were constructed in Illustrator and I tried to limit the designs to a more minimal and clean approach while capturing the essence and themes of each story.
Minerva Brand Book
A branding and style guide design for the coffee company, Minerva.
I did the logo design in Illustrator, and modeled it after an interpretation of Minerva, the Roman Goddess of wisdom. I also put together the fonts, colour palette, and layout in InDesign.
Minerva, the wise choice for coffee drinkers.
A poster I designed for DramaWay's submitted to the PIFF Film Festival. DramaWay specializes in theatre and arts productions performed and created largely by people with special needs.
To construct this image, I took photos and screenshots from their "Heroes Unite" performance, which was featured in the video, and composited them into an image in Photoshop that captured the spirit of the Avengers Endgame poster.
From Backstage to Onstage - PIFF Poster
Harmonia Audio Ads
I wanted to design something bold that visually expressed feeling through sound. All sound is vibration and vibration of movement, so
I wanted to give the impression of movement in the image through the waves in the background. I chose a very analogous colour pallet to give a feeling of harmony implied in the company's name but made them vibrant and deep for a modern and forward-thinking feel.
All assets were designed and modeled in Illustrator, including the logo, waves, and 3D product models. Some finishing touches were done in Photoshop.
Studio 10 Black Friday Ads
The client was looking for something "Premium & sleek" looking that would appeal to a more mature target demographic but still feel fresh and eye-catching to promote their Black Friday sale. They also required an animated gif for use on social media and web. To achieve this, I collaged product and stock images in Photoshop and then animated them in After Effects.
Nick Cave Article Spreads
My design of three separate spreads for a review of Nick Cave and
the Bad Seeds for Best Of release in Record Collector Magazine. I attempted to marry both fun and function by bringing the romance
and noir of Cave's music to life while also keeping the copy clean
and easy to read.
Constructed in InDesign as well as Photoshop.
If you ever thought "The Great Gatsby would be a whole lot greater if it
had Xenomorphs", then feast your gilded-eyes on my art deco inspired
Aliens poster design.
The first in a collection of art deco and nouveau inspired horror movie posters I’ve been designing.
Constructed in Illustrator with finishing touches in Photoshop.
