Client: Coca-Cola
Brief:
Design the Creations Can for Coca-Cola’s first ever Africa-inspired drink, Wozzaah.
Solution:
To capture the vibrant pulse of African culture through the design, I created and presented multiple hand-drawn sketches that interpreted the theme from various angles. Using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, I digitally rendered, colored, and vectorized the illustrations, all while adhering to Coca-Cola’s brand guidelines.
I then integrated diverse illustrated characters and elements to craft a compelling and cohesive narrative for the can design. This comprehensive approach extended the design beyond the can to include products like apparel and cushions, significantly enhancing brand-audience connections.
Process:
- Strategic Alignment: Participated in tri-weekly meetings to align creative direction with commercial goals, ensuring a cohesive and strategic approach.
- Concept Development: Created and presented multiple hand-drawn sketches, capturing the dynamic and creative essence of African culture.
- Digital Execution: Digitally rendered, colored, and vectorized the sketches using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, meticulously adhering to brand guidelines.
- Narrative Integration: Integrated diverse characters and elements to create a compelling and cohesive visual story that resonates with audiences.
- Engagement Enhancement: Recorded and shared behind-the-scenes workflow and process content, enhancing audience engagement and appreciation at the Johannesburg launch.
