Illustration
Here are some examples of illustration work I have done. In the first one I was working with the brush tool in Illustrator. I chose an animal to draw out using the brush tool to make it look somewhat realistic. The next 3 illustrations I made for DMACC Portfolio Day to be displayed outside the venue. I created them in procreate.
BRANDING
Branding a Micro-nation
In this piece I was to make up a place that doesn't already exist and make a travel poster, a flag, and banknotes for the micro-nation. We did a lot of research for this one to ensure that the work would look like this place actually exists.
PRODUCT DESIGN
Here are some examples of my product design. In the first piece, I had to design a book cover and format the text for the Grimms` Fairy Tales. I went for a minimalistic design. In the next piece, I was given a random image, band name, and album cover name and I had to adjust the image and text to fit different genres of music. The first one being Rock, the second being Country, and the third being Techno. After that I had to pick the best of the three to put into a mock-up to make it look like an actual record.
LAYOUT
Here are some of my layout designs. In the first one I was given a poem and I found imagery to go along with it, I was not allowed to change the formatting of the text given to me because that is how the author of the poem wanted it to be. For the next 3 pieces I had to show different paragraph indications and layout the text in an organized fashion. In the first one, I used the enter key. In the second one, I used indents. For the last one, I used pilcrows.
POSTERS
Here are some examples of posters I did. For the first one, I had to choose a location and make a travel poster for it, I chose Seoul, South Korea and I wanted to do something that I had not seen already in Seoul travel posters so I went with a lesser known but still popular landmark which is called Namsan Seoul Tower. In the next 2 posters, my client wanted me to create 2 different posters to show their karaoke schedule to hang up around their business. I made one that was an illustration and one that used a photo.
CAMPAIGN
In these pieces, I was to make a display stand, stickers, and buttons for the National Crime Victims' Rights Week, a campaign done by the DMACC Criminal Justice department. I went for a 7 column layout design for the display. The purpose of using the side bar was to bring attention to that information first. For the back side of the display I used the silhouettes from the artwork provided to make a frame on the sides leading to the text. The sticker I made used the words from the tagline of this year which was "Survivor Voices Elevate, Engage, and Effect Change." For my button I used a butterfly because they represent transformation, hope, and faith.
ANIMATION
Here I have some animation pieces I did. The first one was for a hat company, I chose to show what the most popular hat for each decade running back to the bowler hat in 1900. I did that because on the logo it has a bowler hat. In my second animation, I made a campfire scene. The fire is the part that is animated and I added embers coming out of it.
PACKAGING
Here you can see a package design that I made for the popular tv dinners 'Banquet'. Everyone has had a tv dinner before but if you have seen the old packaging for Banquet, it's not very appealing. I went with an illustrative approach and created a microwave because if you're making a tv dinner you're going to need a microwave. In the first image it was made in Adobe Dimensions to create a clean look to it. In the second image, I printed out a copy and folded it to look like what the box would look like.
