• BENMIDI

  Client: benMIDI + Photography: Liz French

  

  Multimedia web developer and audio engineer, Ben Midi, needed a brand for his work. I decided to dig into a classic style with the a font called Futura and make a bold brand by literally embedding the power icon into a singled out “i” and making an over all solid face. The reason for the “shadow” or awkward state of the “i” was because of schematics, engineering, and the complexity in designing and soldering the insides of devices. This compliments his design in sound, code, and his interest in making electronics.

• GARAGE SNAIL

  Client: Garage Snail + Photography: Liz French

  

  We wanted to be really blunt, one color, and fun. I researched a lot about snails to get the right characteristics of it. A lot of what I wanted to put into the logo was it’s spiral shell and their tentacles. As far as the garage, there were a lot of ideas on how to implement the garage, but ultimately, the shell “housing” itself would be just that.

• CHEF PUNK CLOTHING

  Client: Chef Punk Clothing + Photography: Liz French

  

  A new company was tired of seeing the same thing in chef wear for professionals in the industry. The client wanted something punk, fun, and hip instead of the same bland and cheesy look that pants have have now. I created food themed designs such as the chemicals in sugar and great teachings from the chef Escofier. A long with the designs, a website was made dedicated to the selling of these items. There was also a promotional package for the initial launch set at the Food & Wine festival in Miami. Clothing and other items are still under development.

• COLLEGE.COM

  Client: College.com + Collaboration: Pamela Cortez + Photography: Liz French

  

  Our inspiration of classic varsity jackets along with the clients connection with the movie Animal House, made this font treatment and new brand for the website. The whole website would be based on stitching and patches to make it different and fresh from all other college based websites students visit. The company was a social networking site dedicated to college students with a large database containing every information needed from their school. Their largest competitor would be Facebook.

• FLUFFY TIGER RECORDS

  Client: Fluffy Tiger Records + Photography: Liz French

  

  The client had the name and an idea, but not an icon. I decided to take a tiger and a cloud and mix it into a fun logo. The cloud shape represents the fluffiness of the tiger and the “zig-zag” portion represents the stripes of a tiger as well as the thundering roars from rain clouds.

• GREENHOUSE PRODCUTIONS

  Client: Greenhouse Productions + Photography: Liz French

  

  Greenhouse was a production company made up in my Entertainment Business Class. The group wanted to show a visual of growth and youth running a Public Relations company. The tree would represent our growth in the company and new beginnings for clients, while the bubbly effect on the logo represented a fresh, young new look for our audience.

• CHEMICALLY IMBALANCED

  Client: Chemically Imbalanced + Photography: Liz French

  

  A company who's brand was to show an adrenaline rush needed something with speed, movement throughout a logo. This was a going to be a major hub for the adrenaline junkie who would want be in a community and support those who were on the same boat. The company sold shirts and gave away stickers for those in major sports to put on their equipment such as Motor Bikes, Snow Boards, Surfing Gear, and other major adrenaline sports.

• IVAN

  Client: Ivanhoe Financial Inc + Photography: Liz French

  

  The company wanted a logo where no matter how small or how big you put it, brokers and branches should be able to distinguish and associate it with Ivanhoe. The logo is made with thick lines to create the word “Ivan” and was proportioned and spaced so that it still looked good really small.

• ORANGEGLUE

  Bryant Castro (Me) + Photography: Liz French

  

  A brand who's been around 5 years and still going. This splotch is not so much a splotch as it is the representation of my head, or more specifically, my big hair. Ideas pouring out, and having others see themselves in it and being creative, even though some say they're not. I believe anyone can come up with something. What do you see in my hair? A lamb, some broccoli, a tree, or an explosion from the fireworks you saw last year at the beach with your friends? There is no wrong answer, you decide what you want and that's final. You're product, your ideas come to life.

• LOVEY DOVEY BIRD STUFF

  Client: Lovey Dovey Bird Stuff + Photography: Liz French

  

  The band needed a brand. Their idea was to have something very playful. A buggy, wings, and a siren, all to represent lost love. In the buggy, a couple would make out and just have the feeling of this fun-love. The wings would be an awe of that love, almost to say that the love is blind and all you think about is the the feeling one is in, but not digging deep into the why. The siren is an alert to let you know what's going on with this playful love, and another meaning to let you know that this playful love is coming your way.

• GREATER MIAMI MUSIC FEST

  Client: Love Rocket + Photography: Liz French

  

  Greater Miami Music Fest was a festival created by Love Rocket to bring local bands from Miami together under one roof. This was their first annual event and needed a bold brand that can display Miami. I made the logo very raw with influences of han painted signs and Miami’s palm trees. This logo was used all over flyers, tickets, and posters.

• LOVE ROCKET

  Client: Love Rocket Media + Photography: Liz French

  

  A new company, wanting something to represent them for a great venture in music. They wanted something readable with an underlying idea. That idea was brought into the "O"s in the name. Representing a thought bubble for new ideas and hope for musicians.

• BROWN NOSING

  Client: L.S. Teza + Photography: Liz French

  

  L.S. Teza was looking for a logo or shall we say “stamp” to go with a series of books that mostly dealt with working professionals. The demographics were for the young and old so I decided to make the logo literal with an elegant flare. Something that can be widely used incase she needed to go into very serious to the point topics, yet still have the curves to go into flexible more fun topics. It had to be nothing you had to think too hard on, yet pleasing to see.

• WORK FACTORY

  Client: Work Factory + Collaboration: Will Adams + Photography: Liz French

  

  A concept company where the fun of graphics were to come from the "Work Factory".

• STITCHCOR

  Client: Stitchcor + Collaboration: Will Adams + Photography: Liz French

  

  Stitchcor, the clothing company. Their main focus was bringing graphic t-shirts mixed with stitches and fun little pieces, without making it look cheesy. Another concept company made from a collaboration.

• PROLOGUE

  Client: Team Prologue Performance + Photography: Liz French

  

  A car racing and enthusiast group needed a very techno looking brand for their team. The brand was represented through shirts and vinyl stickers on windshields and side doors of cars.

• JAVIER PADRON

  Client: Javier Padron + Photography: Liz French

  

  This instructor needed a classic look for his teachings in guitar and music theory. I decided to go with a classic font and to sneak a note graphic to replace the "d" in his last name. Along with this came business cards and website.

• CHRISTINA ARRIOLA

  Client: Christina Arriola + Photography: Liz French

  

  Christina just need her logo to be replicated. She had tons of drawings and knew exactly what she wanted. I gave her a clean refined version from her sketches so she can use it on her new website, business cards, and flyers.

• PEDRO PEREZ

  Client: Pedro Perez + Photography: Liz French

  

  I was given the direction to go with the flow. Pedro is a freelance Audio Engineer who need a business card quick. The best thing to do was to keep it classy, simple, and to the point, expressing what he does at first glance with the card. So quickly and efficiently, I finished his card with a quick turn around time.

• EDDIE CASTRO

  Client: Eddie Castro + Photography: Liz French

  

  Eddie Castro is a Freelance Bassist who needed something blunt to have people carry around with his information as well as his bass through a business card. This slick card was a success with great photography and simple typography.

• CHRISTIAN MARC

  Client: Christian Marc + Collaboration: Pamela Cortez + Photography: Liz French

  

  The jeweler Christian Marc needed a business card to compliment his website. Something very simple with no graphics to show the simplicity and classyness of it by expressing much negative space. The crisp pitch black print fit very well with a nice thick paper with a fine texture.
