In the Dark Crystal Collection x Weta project, my role encompassed both creative collaboration and technical execution. I worked closely with Weta to define the artistic styles and treatments for the collection's awards, building concepts and prototypes ensuring that each piece reflected the rich lore and mystical elements of the Dark Crystal universe. This collaboration included building concept art, low-fidelity mockups, and building the product renders of the collection's figures.

The Dark Crystal collection includes a full set of detailed cards, designed in collaboration with Jorde Durden using Photoshop and After Effects. Each card highlights key characters, their affinities, and themes from the Dark Crystal universe. Enhanced with motion graphics, these cards offer a dynamic and visually engaging experience, bringing the rich lore and mystical elements of the Dark Crystal world to life for collectors.
