My Own Brief
Idea Ping Pong – The art of collaboration
“Jasmine Grey disappeared on the Moors. The woman who came back may have Jasmine’s face and speak with her voice, but Kate knows that this woman is not her mother.

Production Design Visuals in Photoshop

3D Lettering in Illustrator
For me, believable art & design comes from good observation. While developing my new identity for Boodoo, I wanted to create an etheral, theatrical effect by simple means. I created this letter B with 3D effect in Adobe Illustrator from a standard font (Gotham), and by observing how light & shadow behaves as it … Read More
