Kode Gaming

I was approached over social media to create a new logo and branding design for an up and coming gamer. They were only starting but they wanted a logo which would be over their twitch and other media accounts. We sent each other a few sketches of what he wanted, he was really clear on creating a KG icon mixing the two together. Also since he was a kind off commentator/lets play gamer he talks alot so I started to experiment with shapes to do with speech marks and bubbles. This is where the shape comes from.

Cyprus Kitchen Hand In 

Final document handed in for submission for the Cyprus Kitchen brief. I am really happy with how this project turned out and really pleased with the colour palette out of everything. I think it has a great story and meaning behind the colours that were chosen and how they were chosen.

Also very happy with how I tried to bring in Nick’s personality from his videos using phrases that he used on multiple occasions around the packaging. I think it was important to show that the brand was essentially a part of his personality as it was his creation.

I wish I pushed myself further to create some motion for it however, as they do youtube and constantly do vlogs and material for online use it would have been great to show how the brand could work online and with motion. I also think it was important to show the client how the packaging and brand could fit over almost all elements, using either the pattern, icons or logo font to help the brand stand out.

Cyprus Kitchen

Managed to finally finish Cyprus kitchen and will start to post how I went about the final steps of the branding and the project. Showing my insights into why I chose certain elements of this branding project.

Renders

Trappist Models

So I have created a fully functional Unity solar system which infinitely loops for however long you want it too, the speeds need changing and setting right, which I think we can do in the application if not I can always re-key them in C4D which will be a pain but not too bad.

I have had to export every rotation individually into the unity project from C4D as an FBX file, I then have had to bake every single texture onto the assets file in Unity seeing as Unity will not import multiple texture edits which, I tell you, is a pain. The next step is probably to finalise the textures as there is two textures which I am not too happy with, its taken a lot of fiddling in between everything else thats been going on to get them to look right.

The only crap thing about Unity is that the lighting isnt advanced enough to render bounce lights etc. So we will have to use directional light for it. But as I said we need to adjust the speed and make sure its not too fast and is slow enough for people to get a good look. We just need to get the correct height off the table for people to see and for people to see the system.

I really want to try and get this all done this week because I am sick off looking at Cinema 4d’s awful keying system for animations haha, I am excited to start some branding for trappist, get some editorial done and try and come up with some amazing posters.

20/20 Gold Final Hand In

Finally got this one out of the way, client is happy with the progress and likes the colours and final logo. I really liked the use of multiple icon designs so they can pick and choose what colour and style they need to promote their brand. I did enjoy this one, at the start they were very picky but this was a nice finish.

Model Trappist F

Really liking the look of some of these models, Ive had to use some imagination of all the other bits of the planet that you cannot see. Also what colours the planets look like without the harsh orange glow on them.

Unfortunately the materials that I have created for the planets seem to not like being imported to Unity, so I have to burn every single texture to then layer them on top to get the texture and colour I want which is kind off annoying but it works.

LXCUS

Since the guidelines for LXCUS have been completed and everyone is happy for it to move forward, Im starting to design and create a look book. This will include the brand and the style which was created for the brand and a style of photography thanks to Paul my good buddy. Hes in Spain at the moment but will be coming up in the next few weeks, he has done around 2 shoots keeping a style in mind for LXCUS and the marketing and lookbook surrounding the brand.

Im looking at creating some gifs with the text and images to grab peoples attention on social media as this is our demographic, young modern influencers.
