SkyWest ad series

2008-02-04T20:10:00.011-06:00

A series of 3 magazine advertisements, designed to promote SkyWest's airline services.

This series of promotional items sets the airline apart from its competitors by presenting the viewer with attitude, energy, and an overall implication of fun. Since most other airline ads are boring and forgettable, I thought it'd be a good idea to be a little more in-your-face and edgy. The viewer is initially surprised by the ad, which then prompts them to pay more attention to it.

The series includes 3 posters, 2 billboards, and a standee/window sticker.

These were created for a class assignment.

Original photography by Bryan Evans.

Programs Used:

Adobe InDesign, Adobe Photoshop

Game magazine special feature

2007-12-14T23:13:00.004-06:00

A title page and 2 story pages from an imaginary game magazine.

My intention with this project was to create the look and feel of a real-life game magazine, complete with page templates (such as the title on top and page number on the bottom), preferred fonts, review boxes, and so on. These elements would be able to be used throughout the magazine to create a unified look and consistent "navigation" for the reader.

2007-11-14T21:57:00.004-06:00

2007-09-11T21:06:00.003-05:00

This logo was designed for a (fictional) brewery. The drink is meant to appeal to the "geek" crowd, appealing to their sense of humor and desire for the unique.

It also embraces an absurd, self-deprecating sense of humor.

2005-12-15T10:29:00.007-06:00
