Case Study 1
Client: Blanc
Project: Bespoke Influencer Gifting Kit
Brief
To create a promotional influencer gifting kit to be sent out to creators in order to promote the release of the client's new game 'Blanc' being released on PC and Nintendo Switch
Execution
After leading an idea generation meeting with the buying team, we settled on several items that we believed fit the themes and aesthetics of the game. As the game is set in a snowy landscape, we lead with a Winter theme, ultimately creating a pair of bespoke thermal socks, a bespoke snow globe, a collectible enamel pin badge, along with a postcard and fully bespoke packaging, including card inserts. The game artwork style is monochomatic, so I was keen to ensure the kit was aligned with this aesthetic. I initially mocked up images of each of my product designs, along with my proposed packaging design. This was then gathered into a pitch deck to send to the client for approval.
I was eager for the snow globe to fit the same 2D aesthetic as the game itself. To achieve this, I gathered the key artwork from the client and cut each element out onto separate layers using Photoshop, carefully drawing/filling in gaps as I went, so that we were left with a layered 2D effect, which successfully worked when viewing the globe from both in front and behind.
For the socks, I created a vectorised traditional fairisle pattern, working in the games branding and maintaining the black and white aesthetic. This was then added on to a knitted sock template, ensuring that it was a repeat pattern so that the ends perfectly aligned. I also created a custom sock label, again using the key artwork for consistency.
Initial mock up sent to client for feedback

Project: Various Promotional Influencer Gift Packages
Brief
Design and produce bespoke packaging and print options for promotional items to be sent out to creators
Execution
Lead the idea generation for creating interesting and bespoke ways of packaging items in order to create an impact when creators receive the package. This involved me creating line drawing illustrations of characters from the game, with this idea being reused for the next package design, as requested by the client after receiving positive feedback.
I created templates for the flatpack boxes, ensuring everything was formatted and laid out correctly once the box was built. Various printing methods were used, including a gold foil print, which was selected to elevate the kits and add a premium touch. I also created a marble texture to be printed onto one of the boxes, as a cheap but effective way of making a standard off-the-shelf box into something with much more impact.
