Crave Responsibly
Advertising, 360 Degree
Crave Responsibly is a group-made campaign for Turkey Hill where we focused on the sustainable and ethical side of their brand. We had to do our own research to create the brief for this campaign. Each of our team members had a different role within the campaign, but we all had a hand in the design and graphical style of the art making. This campaign comes complete with out of home advertising, truck wraps, in-store posters, merchandise, socials, and ambient advertising.
VIAL Energy Drink
Branding, Product Design
VIAL is an energy drink that uses less caffeine than most other energy drinks, comes in a smaller can, and uses real juice to create their unique flavors. The design focuses on bringing tech and vector together to create something that is simply nice to look at while enjoying your energy beverage.
Grave Escape
Illustration, Product Design
Grave Escape is a card game where sabotaging your friends is the primary goal to both win and have fun. Sabotage other players to become the first to escape the creature chasing you. The illustrations are inspired by the work of Trudi Castle, who made the art style of Darkest Dungeon I & II. Will you work together or betray your friends in this exciting card game?
Ache
Product Design, Illustration, Layout Design
Ache is an album and merch line that focuses on the changes of the human heart and how a person could become quite different if they have been hurt too many times. This project uses the stark contrast of black and white and disturbing visuals to shock a person seeing it for the first time. The front shows a harrowing illustration of a heart punctured, strangled, and pulled in multiple directions. The back has the black and white inverted with some of the ropes and chains going off the edge.
