Artist Statement:
Throughout my time at College and University I have gained 5 years experience
on Quark Xpress, Photoshop, Illustrator, Freehand, 3D Studio Max and Rhino.
I have also achieved many awards including two Bronze Student Starpack
awards and first prize for a Whiskas design competition.
My packaging design course has dealt with many projects
covering branding, graphics, 3-dimensional design and advertisements.
I look forward to working in a graphic or packaging design
studio.
Project Statements:
Absolut Jello- Student Starpack 2002- Bronze Award
This pack contains alcoholic jelly pieces and 5 sticks to pick them up.
This is a sociable product to be shared with friends, in a bar or at a
party.
The ring shaped container
has a clear top to view the fun graphics on the seal below.
Absolut Jello reflects
the wit of the Absolut brand.
Body
Shop- Your Mark.
UV
perfume stamp.
“YOUR MARK”
is against the destruction and degradation of the Amazon rainforest and
wildlife.
Each perfume has a
different stamp design that is also embossed on the pack. The stamp design
glows under the ultra-violet lights in nightclubs.
Using “YOUR
MARK” perfume shows your support.
Whiskas-
Magic Munch ‘N’ Crunch
Year
2 Whiskas Design Competition- First Prize
Encouraging children
to feed their pets.
Each meal consists
of the wet food in a pouch and dry food in a wand. As the child serves
the food they say one of the magic spells to make their pet healthy!
Example- “Whiskas
Magic, Make My Cat, Strong and Mighty, Fit Not Fat!”
The product is simple
to serve and very enjoyable.
Transfix
Balance & Cover – Skin Care For Men
Brand Image- masculine black and white colour scheme. Using these products
helps “transfix” women to men. Swirl pattern is transfixing
when turned!
Balance- moisturising
bar that evens the appearance of shaving rash. Twist the top to dispense.
Cover- portable powdered
cards to abolish shine. Simply peel off the back and wipe on face. Black
swirl pattern is printed onto metalised polyester that has a subtle mirrored
effect.
Secondary pack is
wallet styled to emphasise its portability.
Eve
Bath Products
The image of the biblical Eve is modernised to a mature, independent and
influential woman.
Products still defy
age but focus on other assets such as- wisdom, reflection and inspiration.
Container shapes subtly
represent the bitten apple from the Garden of Eden. This bite mark also
aids grip when opening the lids.
Embrace
Wine- Student Starpack 2003- Bronze Award
Romantic wine for the modern couple.
The embossed logo
represents two people hugging (as shown in the advert) and also two complete
hearts (when you look through the bottle).
The shape of the bottle
appears to be lovingly squeezed in a loving embrace.
Cool
Hot Sweet Virgin Meal Tray
This design focuses on the constricted space allowed for the tray. Therefore
the lids stand upright in the tray to save space in a decorative way.
The containers and
their embossed character lids each have a name depending on the course-
cool for starters, hot for main and sweet for desert.
Ribena
Star Smiles
This is a pack for children’s teeth cleaning sweets.
The sweets are stored
in a blister pack and come with free photo frames and smile stickers.
The child can frame
their favourite celebrity in their lunchbox and each day of the week the
free smile stickers get bigger and bigger!
Encourages
oral healthcare at school.
