Jeff Bernat

2017 / 2018
(ABOVE LEFT) With almost 270,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, Jeff Bernat has broken through as a Filipino-American singer, songwriter, and producer on the rise. In designing the cover of afterwords, his fourth studio release, I chose a serif font for the title and stylized it to emulate a neon sign. Laid over a Mark Peaced studio shot, the effect was a modern-classic feel. I also created supporting motion graphics for social media, as seen below.

(ABOVE RIGHT) After a heartbreak, Jeff released his non-album single Changes. In this melancholy tune, the chorus mentions how he keeps her picture on the nightstand. To reflect this, we chose a shattered picture frame, incorporating the word “changes” through jagged breaks in the glass. The two flowers act as a primary visual for the transformation of a broken heart.

JBird

2012 / 2018

(ABOVE LEFT) Created specifically to convey the brotherhood that forms the foundation of Jbird's family band, The Brotet, this illustrated artwork was designed and implemented for a live cover of Nujabe's ending track to the popular amine, Samurai Champloo.

(ABOVE RIGHT) For Jbird's Outta Town Weekends cover art, I developed custom, hand-made script, iconography, logos, and layout design, supported by with photography by Michael Carreon.

DJ Agana

2012 - 2014
Justin Agana, AKA DJ Agana, was an ideal collaboration in that he provided exactly what he envisioned with precise detail, while allowing me to incorporate my own creative insight.
