    uniE621 Mean Girls poster (Fall 2019)
    This a poster I created for the movie Mean Girls. I got the idea for it when I realized no dolls had ever been created for Mean Girls despite the antagonist group being called "The Plastics" so I thought it would be fun to use that idea to create a movie poster featuring a "Plastics" toyline. I created a lot of the elements for this poster individually such as the dolls Cady and Regina being separate from the hands holding the boxes and Christmas tree. After assembling the scanned illustrations to my liking, I digitally colored the poster and added the text elements. I opted to list Rachel McAdams as the second lead rather than Tina Fey since this is a fan poster and in addition to being the other main character of the film, was the only other character on the poster so it felt right. illustration movie movieposter Gimp poster…

    uniE621 MidSommar movie poster (Fall 2019)
    MidSommar movie poster I created after seeing the film. It is primarily done with acrylic paint. I painted the maypole and background as then on separate paper, painted Dani and the other dancers then cut them out and glued them to the background piece so they would have some additional depth. Finally, I used GIMP to add the text to the poster. *Film spoilers ahead* I made a point to only add facial details to Dani because she was the only foreign person participating in the maypole dancing competition. I thought leaving the other dancers' faces blank would add a sense of mystery and unease to reflect the film. illustration graphicdesign movieposter painting acrylicpaint movie poster…
    uniE621 Gravity Girl playlist cover (Winter 2024)
    I made this to serve as the cover icon for the playlist I made for my comic, Gravity Girl. The playlist itself was meant to serve partially as a playlist for the general vibe of the character and story as well as the type of music she would listen to. Additionally, I gave her some headphones that are done in the style of her costume since in-universe I’m exploring the idea of superheroes having merch deals so I figured headphones would be one possibility for that. I took inspiration from Gorillaz’ Demon Days album cover for both the profile style illustration and the lighting on this. For this one I started with a traditional illustration that I scanned and colored digitally using Gimp illustration comics cartoon You can listen to the playlist here: https://www.twine.net/signin…
    uniE621 Prudent Publishing: Logo Rework (Fall 2023)
    Here is an example of a logo I reworked for an order at Prudent Publishing. The customer submitted an extremely low-res logo and there was not a higher-res version of this logo available to use in its place. I used Adobe Illustrator to recreate the logo for the order and to be saved on file for future orders. Logo GraphicDesigner…
