Walt Disney

Consumer Products, Germany. Seasonal key visuals — carried from the poster to the shelf to the feed.

Graphic Designer for DCPC (Disney Consumer Products)

Consumer Products · Germany

The only designer on the team. Every franchise, every surface.

Inside Disney Consumer Products in Germany, one person designed the season: the key visual, and everything it had to become — the retailer’s banner, the poster in the window, the column in the aisle, the booklet at the till, and the post on @disneydeutschland.

Every piece was made inside Disney’s global identity and each franchise’s licence rules, then bent to a German campaign, a German retailer and a German shelf. From concept to final artwork, every step.

The holiday campaign

One key visual. Every surface.

The holiday campaign began as a single image: a ribbon of light, six characters and one line — Freude schenken zum Fest. Scroll, and watch it become the season.

  1. The key visual: one ribbon of light, one line.
  2. Into the shop window: brandshop banners, every width a retailer asked for.
  3. Into a retailer’s feed: the LIBRO posts, one hero product each.
  4. Onto @disneydeutschland: the advent calendar, lit by the same ribbon.

The everyday campaign

Mehr Freude. Jeden Tag.

The everyday campaign runs the other way: daylight instead of night, a pastel ribbon instead of a golden one, and four franchises sharing one white shelf without one of them shouting over the others.

It had to hold at every size a retailer could ask for — a banner a metre wide, an upright for a web shop, and the booklets people take home.

Point of sale

In the aisle.

A cinema release needs to be in the shop before it is on the screen. The Vaiana 2 drop-and-pop column went out in German and French, a figure you walk around rather than a poster you walk past.

And the one that proves it left the file: the Lilo & Stitch column, photographed where it stood.
