June 25, 2008 : Desperately Seeking Susan

I had a lot of fun with this project! Besides getting to watch the movie for reference, I got to use a lot of lace overlays and colorful chains for graphic elements! My goal was to make the box seem…punk rock yet, modern, yet colorful. You know, something Madonna would be proud of!

I’m on this big kick with separating my graphics into sections. Which is why the front of this Minimate box is separated in 3 parts. The mix up of Susan & Roberta was the main story line, so I added the characters to the front. I used a lot of filters and color overlay to give it a shroud of mystery, just like Susan.


 
 
 
 

: Star Trek package design change

The nice people at CBS have provided us with a Style Guide for Star Trek: The Original Series. This will show up as a big change in our Star Trek ads and packages because they will now have a uniform look that is dictated by the licensor. While this makes layouts and approvals go smoother it kind of limits what we can do on our end. Look for the new designs to be showing up in Previews and on packages coming out soon.
