Fish Ease

When I designed Fish Ease I tried to push myself in a direction of packaging products that I would not normally choose to do. I chose something I was not interested in and made myself interested in it. It was to appeal to an older generation as a look from the past, and a younger generation as vintage. To create this effect I combined an old-fashioned color scheme, vintage texture, larger drop shadows, and older looking images. My objective was to make the text and imagery look like an old fashioned poster with modern elements.

Etique Water

This packaging design assignment was a redesign of an existing product. I choose a Sam’s Choice water and made it into a high class looking water bottle. It was difficult trying to make a water bottle look expensive yet be able to sell it to an average buyer. Etique’s simple and sleek design makes this possible.

Velvet Candle Company

This packaging design assignment was to design something that was elegant. I tried to come up with a name that sounded elegant and then go from there with the design, so I chose Velvet Candle Company.

I chose Timberland as my animated logo brand because it has a good design to start off with and I thought it would be fun to work with.

Sweet Boutique

This assignment was to come up with our own subject and scope of the project. It was during Christmas time and I wanted to do something festive. Sweet Boutique was meant to be sold in boutique’s and small candy shops. It was difficult to find something that was festive but looked inviting to eat, and also would look like it was expensive.

Consider Magazine

Consider magazine was one of my favorite and most difficult projects. The assignment was to push ourselves in a direction out of the ordinary; something you do not see everyday. I took this far in some of my articles and I learned a lot from it. Through this I became more interested in different types of design.

Pause Magazine

VAMP
