Client: Redemption Whiskey

Agency: Pereira O’Dell NY

Role: Art Direction + Design

Inspired by the Prohibition Era, Redemption Whiskey is reviving Rye: the once dominant spirit, key to every classic cocktail.

DP Andrew Wheeler and photographer Victoria Wills helped us capture the atmosphere and mood perfectly — Victoria went above and beyond, bringing the concept of revival to life shooting stills in both traditional tintype and a digital, recolored version to create a new visual world to set Redemption apart from competitors and ground them in the storied history of Pre-Prohibition times. Using real bartenders help lend even more authenticity to the campaign, something we all felt necessary to the story.

Client: Spice Hunter

Agency: Familiar Creatures

Role: Art Direction + Design

Spice Hunter’s mission is to create authentic spice blends that the average American might never have tried.

We were tasked with a logo and packaging refresh. We had to keep the hexagon shape from the previous logo, but modernize it. For the packaging explorations below, we were tasked with making the product look more luxurious, for a younger female audience. Client ended up pausing the project until next fiscal quarter.
