Gacha World - Shopping & Games

A mobile application that combines gaming with ecommerce to provide a new shopping experience to fans of Japanese pop culture, anime/manga, stationery, fashion, and other goods. In my role as the Assistant VP of Design for Gacha World, I spearheaded creative direction for the app's UI, branding, marketing, and content. I also designed the company logo, app icon, in-game characters, most in-app motion graphics, website, contributed illustration content for our social media accounts, and created a workflow for better ecommerce product photography.

Brand content

Art direction for Gacha World's brand content distributed on social media and as digital downloads on the official website. I also contributed my own illustrations and graphic designs to the collection, and designed the digital banners for our marketing campaigns.

Artwork focuses on Gacha World’s four mascots: Poka, Kichi, Toko, and Moji. Each character has their own distinct personality and interests (relevant to the merchandise sold by Gacha World) and they are depicted accordingly in a variety of fun or relatable situations.
