CHANNEL COSU
In 2023, My brother and I decided to open up our own creative studio where we would focus on developing our own IP, Channel COSU. We spent over a year developing our design and will be officially launching our product line of art toys in Summer 2024.
I consider COSU Creative Studio my creative outlet and collecting art toys has always been a passion hobby of mine. To be able to express my creativity through the canvas of art toys, and then to be able to share it with our supporters directly has been a true fulfillment.
We strive to create an eco-system of unique characters to help share our stories and our interpretation to the theme of consumerism.
You can follow our journey on Channel COSU’s instagram page.
Character creation and card designs
There were a total of 50+ unique card images that were designed for my two board games. I worked extremely close with my illustrator to create each design and made sure that these images would be attractive to potential consumers.
Graphic design
Although I would not consider myself a graphic designer, I always had interest with Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. I make designs for fun and have been utilizing these skills that I picked up on my spare time for personal projects + at work, where it sees fit.
I also have basic video and audio editing skills with programs such as: Sony Vegas, Adobe Premiere, Audacity & Clipchamp.
VIDEO STORYBOARDING AND CREATIVE DIRECTION
By working with my brother alongside some independent contractors, we create high quality videos to promote our business endeavors. Our creative studio will handle the full-cycle production from storyboarding, filming, editing and posting.
Commercials and background acting
In June 2019, I had the opportunity to audition and participate in a marketing campaign for Uber Canada x The Toronto Raptors. It was an UberPool social media campaign with the motto of #RAPTORSALLIN.
In the past, I have been a background extra for various small time television shows / YouTube series, most notably in “XIII: The Series.” and “The Rec Room”.
