    Not Sponsored by AfterBite
    This was part of an in-class project to master the art of product photography. In a flash of inspiration, I grabbed a long-forgotten tube of AfterBite from my bag and used it to brand a campaign around the experience. Where else does this magic itch eraser get left behind? Where are you scrambling to find it when the bites are driving you mad? Whether it's been dropped by the campfire, left on the sidelines of an athletic field, or buried at the bottom of the bag, you'll know when you need AfterBite. photo branding

    Adventures of the Tigershark

    This was an in school project designed to train students on Adobe Audition and other sound editing and recording techniques. Along with my project partner, we created a script and cover art for our audio drama. Then came recording, editing and finalizing the first (and only) episode of a murder mystery set on a pirate ship.

    Introducing... ReverbGecko!

    Another imaginary client as part of building portfolio quality work in my degree. I conceptualized and branded an album launch for an indie rock boyband. Cover art, tour posters, and signed polaroids from the band! Reverb Gecko fans all throughout the world (our classroom) were devastated to find out that no, you can’t listen to “Oregon Rockway” on vinyl yet because this band doesn’t exist.

    Subject Photography 2019
    With my first two projects receiving praise, I was on a roll. The next installment was a group of friends that volunteered for a group shoot on the rooftop balcony of the Art Gallery of Alberta (located in Edmonton). The only instruction was to wear purple and bring your best attitude! photo
    Tee launch 2019
    After my initial success with logo design, I was asked to repeat the masterpiece the next year. photo logo graphicdesigner
    Tee launch 2018

    After my initial rise to success, I was asked to repeat the masterpiece for the next year. New tees, new logo, new charity. Once again, a few volunteers and a brick wall can do wonders.

    Tee launch 2018
    As part of a school charity initiative, I got the opportunity to design a logo and tees that students and families could purchase as a donation to the cause. Once the prints came in, a few lovely friends volunteered as models and I got to capture my designs in action. photo logo graphicdesigner branding
    Tee Lauch 2017

    An old project from back in highschool. I designed shirts for a school charity initiative and then had a few friends volunteer to be photographed. Most of these were shot on the school property in Edmonton or down the block in the parking lot of an art studio that is no longer there.
