About
Even before coming to MacEwan, I have always considered myself a creative person and a good problem-solver. What's the best way to apply that to my career, other than graphic design? While I do consider myself a "jack-of-all-trades" designer, the program has allowed me to explore areas in which I truly thrive. If I had to list my strongest skills in order, I would have to say branding, photography, and product design. While my ultimate goal is to teach design at the university level, I want to spend the next few years in the field sharpening my skills.
Dust Jacket
Redesign of the dust jacket and internal layout for an existing book. For this project, I chose George Orwell's "1984."
Record Package Design
Students were asked to compete in designing record packaging/branding for an upcoming album by Bent River Records, "The Long View."
Local Rebrand
For Corporate Identity & Branding, students were asked to choose a local business/company and complete a rebrand. For this project, I chose the local anime convention, Animethon.
Editorial Portrait
Students were asked to do an editorial shoot on location (outside of the studio) with strobe lights. For this project, I shot an acquaintance in the SAMU building for a Vogue editorial spread.
