Teaching users how to use the Surface pen to create 3D creature besties

Art Director, Visual Designer, 3D Designer

In order to teach customers about Windows' new program Paint 3D, my team was tasked with creating a campaign to reach a student based audience in third party retail. Teaching myself how to use the new 3D program, I created the hero creature, fondly named Bernie, which was then picked up by the Windows Brand Group to use in their marketing content. We also collaborated with the Retail Demo Experience team to integrate the creature story visuals into demos in order to enhance the customer interaction and increase brand cohesion.
