Research on blenders designed by other toy companies and some examples of toys designed by Fisher Price.
Progression from initial to final sketch.
The idea for the Fisher Price Blender was to have rubber balls inside that would begin to get scrambled as the buttons on the bottom front panel were pressed. As these buttons got pressed, the toy would produce blender noises in a more childish manner. The lid would not be openable in order to prevent children from swallowing the small rubber balls inside the blender.
The end assignment was to create a poster as if Fisher Price was presenting their new product to possible customers.
