Shutterfly Project

My task for this project was to identify a well-known business and create an annual report cover, a new product, and a magazine advertisement for that product.

The company I selected for this project was Shutterfly. Since Shutterfly specializes in photo-personalized products, I chose to incorporate plenty of photographs in the annual report cover, new product, and the magazine advertisement. For the product, I chose to create watches with pictures in the place of the traditional watch faces.

Applications Used:

Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign

2020 Calendar
Project

For this project, I was tasked with creating a calendar for 2020 with a theme of something that I personally enjoy. Because of the wide variety of media to choose from, I chose Sherlock Holmes as the theme for my calendar.

Every month, I featured a different Sherlock Holmes adventure, summarizing the story myself and creatively incorporating pictures from various Sherlock Holmes media into every month's spread. By doing this, I worked towards my ultimate goal of recreating the crime board seen on the calendar's front cover using the individual months as puzzle pieces.

Applications Used:

Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign, Microsoft Word

Bistro Menu
Project

For this project, I created a menu for a Cajun bistro. I was responsible for creating the restaurant's name, logo, as well as organizing the rest of the menu design and layout.

For "Jules' Cajun Bistro," I wanted to create a classy menu that still had the classic, country feel of a Cajun seafood restaurant.

Minute Maid
Project

For this project, I was tasked with creating a new product line and product labels for a well-known company whose products I personally use.

With this criteria in mind, I chose to create labels for a line of sparkling drinks for Minute Maid. For the labels, I wanted to create something that was both eye-catching and stylish. By using images of fruit in each of the labels, I aimed to create a feeling of freshness in the viewer.

Applications Used:

B&L Law Firm Project

For this project, I was tasked with creating various stationary pieces for an imaginary law firm.

By choosing a light greenish-blue color in the design, I wanted to communicate stability and trustworthiness to potential clients. By implementing parralel lines with a quarter circle curve at the end, I again wanted to reinforce stability. I also wanted to make the viewer find a resemblance to traditional architecture, like the White House.
