PANTHER | Ad Arts Box Truck Vehicle Wrap
At my PANTHER | Ad Arts internship, I was asked to create a vehicle wrap for the company’s box truck. Vehicle wraps are one of many of the their services, so it is fitting that their box truck showcases that! It was quite the process to pick the winning wrap as I had many different ideas and versions. I learned a lot from the whole process, especially how to work with customer feedback to create the best version possible! PANTHER | Ad Arts loves the way it turned out and so do I! Make sure to keep an eye out for their truck prowling the streets!
PANTHER | Ad Arts Conference Room
Wall Wrap
PANTHER | Ad Arts doesn’t just wrap vehicles, they can also wrap walls! I was asked to create a wall wrap for their conference room that represented the company and the Sioux Falls community. This was my first idea I came up with and everyone loved it! I used photos of local Sioux Falls attractions such as Falls Park, Arc of Dreams, Old Courthouse Museum, Cathedral of St. Joseph, etc. I also used a road map of Sioux Falls in the background. It was so fulfilling to see my piece on the physical wall of the conference room! I am very grateful to be able to work on such fun projects at PANTHER | Ad Arts!
PANTHER | Ad Arts THINK PANTHER Marketing Campaign
I was asked to create a graphic for PANTHER | Ad Arts new marketing campaign “THINK PRINT. THINK PANTHER.” I was told I could go crazy with the design and did not have to stick to brand standards. I chose to keep with brand standards because it makes the company recognizable and consistent. Although the company has not used the symbol of a panther for over 8 years, I wanted to include it to match the new box truck. I think the image of the panther is striking and eye-catching, which is exactly what the company was looking for! Keep your “eyes” open for this new marketing campaign.
South Dakota-Land
For an assignment, we were asked to create an original piece that could be anything! I had been thinking about what I wanted to create since last year’s portfolio show. I have a seven year old sister and for one of her birthdays, I drew her own personal Candyland filled with her favorite things. I really enjoyed that project and the concept around it. I started thinking about how I could expand upon the idea for other kids. One afternoon while I was working at a pharmacy, I thought of South Dakota-Land and quickly wrote my idea down on a scratch piece of paper. I’ve kept that piece of paper ever since and have used it for a blueprint. I love being able to showcase my state’s incredible attractions while also helping kids learn (and have fun!)
STC 2025 Portfolio Show (2nd Place)
These were pieces in my campaign for the Southeast Technicial College’s 2025 Portfolio Show. I liked the concept of using a mascot within the logo because it had never been done before. My first concept of a mascot was a camera, but I realized a computer could be more veristile for the two majors represented at the show. To keep with the computer theme, I added webpages and software icons. I was very sick with influenza the week we had to submit our designs and chose a winner. When I returned back to class, I was surprised to learn I won 2nd place!
