The above pics are a series of three $1 "Stocking Stuffer" lottery tickets that I designed for the Oregon Lottery. They were printed on glitter paper.
The above pics are a series of three $2 "It's A Wonderful Life" lottery tickets that I designed for the Oregon Lottery. They were printed on foil paper.
Here is a series of 8 mousepad designs that I created for the OR Lottery as premium items to be handed out at "Oregon Wins" events. (I worked with illustrations by Eric Stevens, Portland artist.)
Last week I had a photoshoot for the 150th Cash Explosion ticket campaign that I am working on for the OR Lottery. We wanted a rustic-like log setting in a tight timeframe, so we decided on the Doug Fir Lounge.
Here is an interior shot of the location. Pretty cool interior design (for such a sketchy part of town).
Our campaign revolves around the idea of Sasquatch in front of a birthday cake. I chose in-house talent for the shoot. My selection was the biggest fan of Sasquatch that I know at the Lottery, Jerry Dezsofi, from Promotions. Here he is getting into his costume (and into character). :)
Our photographer, Todd Eckleman, getting Jerry ready for the shoot.
We commissioned two cakes for the shoot. This one is a great two-tier design based on a Martha Stewart reference that I had found. (Patrick, Todd's assistant, in the background.)
Here is a "behind the scenes" pic of Todd capturing a shot.
I love this expression :)
We had SO much fun on this shoot!!! This is a pic of Todd, photographer, and Susan, stylist, grabing handfuls of cake and applying frosting to Sasquatch's face to make it look like he had just dove into it. We felt like kids being able to do this. The great part is that we didn't get "in trouble" for it. Very fun!!! (Even copywriter, Ashley Moran, and myself joined in the fun of grabbing a few handfuls of cake after the shot!)
I opened my first etsy store last weekend. I am really enjoying it, but feel that there is a lot to learn. It has been a dream and a goal for a long time. I made a gazillion ornaments using my vintage letterpress type. I enjoyed each step of the process of creating them. I especially loved selecting all of the color combinations of coordinating the glaze colors, bead beads, and packaging. Please check it out. I plan to post new things on a weekly/bi-weekly basis. :)
