AK-MAK BAKERY PACKAGING

AK-MAK — WHITE COUNTRY STYLE (BACK PANEL)

DetailS

The packaging concept was developed after I met with the client. Once my initial concepts were approved, I began to plan the project stages. I shared my sketches with my photographer and I directed the food preparation with a cook. We used different locations based on the kitchen needs and space. The photographs were then edited, and combined with the package layout.

Detail 2

The design concept was inspired by a Paint-By-Number image. The idea was to see the image slowly take shape, but instead you are listening to all the songs that reveal a full story. The songs were about love and relationships, and so the image was going to be a couple very closely together in a personal composition. I drew the figures so that they filled the space equally and that the image could be rotated 180 degrees and it would be balanced but from the other person (the guys) in the pictures right-side-up perspective.

THE DYING SUNS ALBUM

VECTOR TEXT LOGO WAS CREATED FOR THE BAND. THEIR DRIP DESIGN MADE IT HARD TO READ THE TEXT IN THE DRIP STYLE. AFTER I CREATED THE SUN IN ILLUSTRATOR I USED VECTOR EFFECTS TO DISTRESS THE LOGO. I ALSO CREATED MY OWN PEN LINE BRUSHES TO MAKE THE SUN RAYS. COLORS WERE SELECTED TO APPEAR VINTAGE.
