MY ROLE
Design
The gaming studio was looking for something that would help them stand apart. I love working on these projects where I get to help define a look and feel.
Challenge
How do you create a digital presence for a new gaming studio that could appeal to gamers while still feeling credible within Qualcomm’s ecosystem?
Solution
I wanted to design something bold and modern with strong type and immersive visuals. I also wanted to push my skillset with animating how the page would look as a user scrolled.
Here's how i did it
Homepage
I took a lot of liberties while still staying true to the Qualcomm brand guidelines. They have some strong gaming assets, so I wanted those to be the highlight and make those the focus while using dynamic layouts with type and imagery.
Qualcomm Game Studios webpage featuring futuristic robot characters, mobile gaming screenshots, and descriptions of pioneering technology and a world-class team.
Game Detail Page
On the game detail page, I wanted to play around with how the game information would scroll into the gameplay itself. Highlighting the technology used was also important on this page as well.

IMPACT
While this project never went into development, it did help push by knowledge of After Effects and give me a chance to work on a fun design.
