    uniE608 Mystic Bookstore Social Video Design
    This project is an exercise promoting a fictional bookstore that I wish existed in my neighborhood. I chose the name Mystic from the Mystic river that curves through my town, just outside of Boston. Using stock footage of libraries and bookstores, I added my animated logo and generated copy to create social posts. I wanted these to feel mysterious and inviting. socialmediadesign
    uniE621 Alpenglow Outfitters Logo Design
    This project is an exercise promoting a fictional outdoor gear store. I wanted to play around with warm-toned colors, logo design, and took inspiration from topographic maps. I chose the name Alpenglow for my love of the setting sun on the Wasatch mountains. Here is the logo I created for Alpenglow. I love the interaction and angles of the letters, which evoke jagged mountain ridges. logodesign branding graphicdesigner illustrator
    uniE608 Alpenglow Outfitters Social Video
    This project is an exercise promoting a fictional outdoor gear store. I wanted to play around with warm-toned colors, logo design, and took inspiration from topographic maps. I chose the name Alpenglow for my love of the setting sun on the Wasatch mountains. Above are in-feed videos and stories I built using stock footage. I wanted to show the contour lines being drawn on screen, as if the hikers’ movements are bringing them to life. I also utilized a posterized time effect to convey the feeling of taking and layering snapshots of a hike.

    This project is an exercise promoting a fictional outdoor gear store. I wanted to play around with warm-toned colors, logo design, and took inspiration from topographic maps. I chose the name Alpenglow for my love of the setting sun on the Wasatch mountains. Here is an example of a static in-feed social carousel post. I built these assets using stock photography, and copy that I developed to fit these photographs. I wanted to play with the interaction of the photos with contour lines of maps, invoking exploration and outdoor play. graphicdesigner socialmediadesign carousel
