I expertly executed dozens of product photography stills in order to modify the color and shape for line reviews for several large retailers. I enjoyed creating beautiful renderings and visual stories with product in order to actualize the design teams' ideas, without the investment of full retooling at a factory,
Just one of the projects I worked on was a Propane Gas Tailgate grill where I worked closely with the engineering team to model and render several iterations of gas grills that used an existing insert system using the Craftsman Brand language. I learned the power of the image through light placement and thinking through the way consumers' needs were changing and how effective design predicts and offers solutions to those needs proactively.
