Packaging that Showcases Hasbro Product Lines

Deliverables

Logo and Emblem Design • Package Design • Production & Layout • Photo Compositing • Directing Photoshoots

Child models were screened and selected for package play scenes;
Child wardrobes and any props were coordinated with the appearance of the toys being photographed;
Photoshoots were overseen to make certain that play scenes captured the key selling features of a toy;
To best showcase a toy in-store, I worked closely with structural designers on die drawings for open packages.
Created package prototypes and produced final, press-ready layouts.

During his initial interview, I was impressed with the range of work and creativity in Tom's portfolio. Throughout his time as a contract designer at Hasbro, I have had him work on several projects for me, and he always completed them with great results, and in a timely manner.

Wanting to set the hierarchy of information straight—and to replace the misplaced medallion, the Art Director asked for the three logo proposals shown above.
