What if your favorite snack dropped a sneaker collab? 🍫👟
That was the creative challenge for our Digital Media Art Scholars — a branding mashup between a popular snack and iconic sneaker for the fictional company Snackers Sneakers.
Our 7th grade designers stepped into the role of the Snackers creative team:
🎨 Pulling harmonious color palettes from their snacks
📍 Using HEX codes to design their kicks in Photoshop
📱 Creating bold Instagram ads with typography, layout, and digital marketing skills
Each one topped it off with a clever slogan to seal the deal.
The results? Seriously crave-worthy.
👟🔥 Check out The depARTment’s NEW Instagram page to see their custom sneaker ads and more incredible student art from around GESD!
