Illustrative Typography Quote For this assignment, we had to make a illustrative poster using different styles of typography. For my project, I quoted song lyrics from Panic at the Disco’s “Don’t Threaten Me with a Good Time” and captured the aesthetic of neon signs you’d see in a city like Las Vegas late at night.

“The Pick-You-Up” Food Truck Branding “The Pick-You-Up” is a food truck chain that brews coffee quick for those going through a morning rush. The main course are mutliple options of espresso shots for certain scenarios in which one may need a quick caffeine boost.

“Self Portrait” Animated Photoshop Collage This is an animation project done for my first motion graphics class at WCU. The assignment was to animate a self-portrait photoshop collage in After Effects. The goal for my animated photoshop collage was to create abstract imagery from the idea of having your “head in the clouds” in a way that was unusual, but describes my introverted, quiet state and my tendency to slip into a daydream.

“Afua” Chocolate Bar Packaging For this project, we had the option to stick with the established Chocolate company concept of “Tooth and Nail” or to create our own fictional brand and design based off of that. I chose the latter, and decided to name it “Afua.”

The goal of this packaging line was to create an african-based line of chocolate bars made from locally farmed cocoa beans from several different African countries such as Nigeria, Cameroon and Ghana.

“Afua” refers to the african goddess of Earth.

“Zen” Perfume Bottle Packaging For this project, we had to create our own packaging line of perfume bottles and other fragrances for a fictional company of our choosing. I chose to do a packaging line named “Zen”, which is based off the idea of gems and healing stones. Each perfume bottle’s scent is said to have healing capabilities similar to that of the crystal that it’s named after such as Amethyst, Larimar, and Aquamarine.

“Christiana Skating Center” Website Re-Design For this project, we had to fully re-design a website that was fundamentally poorly designed and make it more efficient both in function and aesthetic. I went with a website for a skating rink called “Christiana Skating Center” main pain points were poor type hierarchy, frustrating navigation, and unnecessary clutter.

“Icebreakers” Storefront Branding For this project, we had to create a branding package for a fictional non-profit organization’s storefront. For my project, I decided to create a non-profit named “Icebreakers”. An ice cream storefront that also held workshops to help people overcome their social anxiety and come out of their shells in an attempt to become more comfortable and confident in social situations.

“Wonka” Rebrand Senior Thesis Project For Senior Thesis, we were assigned a prompt called “Time” in which we related our projects back to the concept or idea of time. So what I decided to do for my project was re-brand a fictional product created by a timeless classic known as Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. These assets contain a rebranded line of Wonka’s chocolate bars, packaging for everlasting gobstoppers, golden goose eggs, and fizzy lifting drinks, and a prototyped shopping website that contains all the products.
