YEAR OF COMPLETION 2017 KIND OF PROJECT Branding and corporate design DISCIPLINES Brand Identity, Website, Book, Apparel, Stationary
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
PROJECT CONCEPT
Blockbuster is a dying brand that needs to be rebranded for the fast pace instant world we live in today. Creating a new stream service that rivals the competitors with better options in television shows, access to movies weeks before they are available for purchase and having a low monthly subscription cost will put Blockbuster at the forefront of the home entertainment industry.
I wanted this rebrand to be geared towards families and the fun they could have together, also towards working adults who just want to be able to enjoy their time at home, relaxing on the couch. With the logo I wanted you to feel comfortable when you saw it, and have happy thoughts of movie night at home. The bright bold colors catch your attention in a playful manner. I paired the bright colors with a bold rounded typeface to create a fun and enjoyable feeling.

YEAR OF COMPLETION 2017 KIND OF PROJECT Explorative DISCIPLINES Posters and Packaging
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
PROJECT CONCEPT
The purpose of this project was to pick a color and various different phrases that are associated with that color and show those phases through hand rendering type. The color I chosen was red. These posters were hand made using everyday items.
When you think of red you think exciting, and in your face. I wanted to make sure that the way I used red would give you that feeling. I wanted to use various textures to give a flat poster depth and dimension. The angles and the shadows of photographs help accomplish that task. I used; rocks, dirt, french fries, match sticks, carpet.

YEAR OF COMPLETION 2017 KIND OF PROJECT Explorative DISCIPLINES Magazine, Postcard, Logo
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
PROJECT CONCEPT
I was asked to pick a topic that I was very passionate about and turn it into a business. I had to think about the target audience and how they would respond to the business, create a poster that introduces the business, along with a logo and postcard. Then use the information to create another deliverable that goes into details about what your business does. I decided to create a magazine.
Throughout my experience in the design world, I rarely encounter people who looked like me. Creating a space for African American Women designers will help aid future African American designers into letting them know that they can have role models and mentors that look like them.

YEAR OF COMPLETION 2016 KIND OF PROJECT Grid Exploration DISCIPLINES Book, Tablet
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
PROJECT CONCEPT
I was giving content which included text and images, and several types of grid to study. I was tasked with creating 5 different book designs each using either a manuscript grid,
Since all the words and images were the same, I really had to work finely with the placement and vibe that each book was going to have to make sure they could stand along as a group and together. Once I created one for each the fifth book was using a grid of my liking and I chose a modular grid. I could only use black and white paired with an accent color, I choose salmon because it is bright and happy and worked well with the contrast of the black.
column grid, modular grid, hierarchical grid.
