Box of Magic Album Cover Art

Incredibly honored to be able to Concept and design this Album Cover for Foxy Shazam. I was given free reign on Art direction and execution, allowing me to pull together a myriad of 3D techniques that was incredibly satisfying to see work together so well. I love both design challenges and technical hurdles so this was the perfect project to elevate my 3D, Illustration, and Concept design skills.

The client wanted the listener to feel like they were hearing what was inside a box of magic. I decided i wanted to hold one too. I wanted to make it feel like you could reach out and play this little claw machine game. And give it a sense of depth i coul only achieve with breaking some perspective rule in 3D. I wanted each plushie to have a playful realism to them but also didnt want my graphics card to melt, so i created a robust collection instancing system where i could place endless plushies where i wanted them and edit them seamlessly in their native files. This project required a lot of multidiciplinary Digital Art skills and solid fundamentals so this was immensly rewarding to get to work on.
