    paper Pasture Prime — Brand Launch & Motion Identity Video

    https://www.twine.net/signin

    Pasture Prime is an original strategy board game brand I developed from concept through launch, including full visual identity, packaging system, and promotional campaign assets. This project showcases my ability to translate a product’s world-building and mechanics into a cohesive motion-driven brand story.

    For the launch video, I created a cinematic, typography-driven promotional piece designed to introduce the game’s theme, strategy, and personality while establishing its visual tone. The motion language blends rustic texture, modern typography, and dynamic pacing to balance warmth with strategic intensity.

    The project included:

    • Brand identity development and visual system creation
    • Logo animation and motion style exploration
    • Kinetic typography and narrative pacing
    • Product showcase animation and graphic overlays
    • Social-ready cutdowns for promotional distribution
    • Sound design and final mastering

    The video was designed to function as a flagship brand piece — adaptable for Kickstarter, social media ads, website hero sections, and pitch decks. Emphasis was placed on rhythm, hierarchy, and clarity to ensure the gameplay felt approachable while maintaining a premium aesthetic.

    This project demonstrates my ability to own creative from concept through final delivery, build scalable visual systems, and translate complex ideas into engaging motion storytelling.
