In 1963, the U.S. government launched a covert space mission sending hundreds of men, women and children on a century-long voyage aboard the rocket ship, Ascension, to populate a new world. Nearly 50 years into the journey, as they approach the point of no return, a mysterious murder of a young woman causes the ship’s population to question the true nature of their mission. (3-Night Television Series)
The rocket kit features a retro tin toy, customized to resemble the rocket ship, Ascension, as seen in the show. The containing box is also customized to house the rocket and display it as an old school collectors item. The foil stamped graphics suggest a modern twist hinting that the show resembles the 60s, but actually takes place in modern time.

/// Video Game Key Art
Ubisoft approached us with the task of developing key art concepts for their new video game, Star Trek Bridge Crew. This was one of their first big VR releases so our focus was to make the consumer feel as immersed in the video game experience as possible. We did a series of sketches to determine the cover layout, then passed them off to Ubisoft's in-house design team to execute the final design.
In addition to the cover layout, we created a series of space battle scenes to be included on the game packaging.
- Environmental Graphics
- Hand Painted Signage
- Custom Cruiser
- Bike Wall Installation
- Plant Wall Installation
The project goal was to add more personality and edginess to SkySlope's minimal, corporate office environment.
Running with IFC's carnival theme, we created a series of title cards for their upfront presentation. We utilized colorful carnival game imagery, signage, and language to highlight their winning Slightly Off strategy. The idea is that IFC’s Slightly Off sensibility gives the player an edge.
The prompt included taking a more contemporary approach on traditional carnival signage—utilizing bold colors, shapes, and hand-made-looking elements while downplaying distressing, weathering and straight-up retro.
Expanding on the aesthetic of their current logo, Charles Woodson Wines gave us the task of creating a complete brand refresh including a new website, lounge menus, POS templates and promo collateral. Smooth and crisp, with a touch of elegance, we harnessed the qualities of their wine and developed an identity that stands out from their competitors.
