CAA (Canadian Automobile Association) wanted to create a campaign encouraging young drivers to drive responsibly, and remind them that using your phone in any way, is considered distracted driving. The animated videos use unique animals to soften the message and highlight the embarrassment they feel when getting caught in hopes that they’ll put their phone down.

The Unscented Company is a complete line of unscented home and body care on two founding principles. Firstly, they redefine the notion of clean by offering exclusively unscented all natural products. They believe powerful cleaning can be free of fragrances and we could all be better for it. Secondly, they design their packaging for conscious living by allowing our customers the ability to refill their bottles either at home or in-store. A significant reduction of our collective plastic footprint.
I developed a series of clean, conceptual brand illustrations to compliment their minimal use of packaging and ingredients, and their light environmental footprint.

Active Matter is a UK-based product design agency that designs digital products and services for a better, more sustainable future. They want to be the design company that visionaries want to work with. This brief was to develop a series of brand illustrations and animations that would help them convey their brand beliefs and messaging in a simple, human, accessible way.
The illustrations and animations are all rooted in a clear concept, brought to life with clean line animation with a playful touch. The style has a hand-drawn quality meant to feel imperfect, relatable and reinforce the brand’s human-centred, ideas-led approach to projects. They are not just decorative, they show meaning and personality.
Brand statements & phrases include:
Serious play
Looking ahead
We work fast
Put yourself in others’ shoes
Unlikely collaborations
Simplify the complex
