Intro

Riot Forge is a game publisher that collaborates with independent developers to produce new titles that build off the League of Legends universe.

As a contractor, I've helped build the League of Legends world by...

✦ Conceptualizing and designing a comprehensive 100-page artbook for Bandle Tale, managing every aspect from deciding the chapter hierarchy, compiling and organizing hundreds of assets to designing immersive layouts for each page

✦ Designing social media graphics to launch three game titles, reaching over 750k+ people on social media

✦ Crafting trading cards, profile backgrounds, and profile badges to be used as collectible community assets on Steam, the video game digital distribution service and storefront that houses Riot Forge's games

The Art and Making of Bandle Tale: Artbook Design

As part of a 2-man team at Bento GG, we collaborated with Riot Forge to craft a 100-page artbook for inclusion in the Collector's Edition Box of the highly anticipated game, Bandle Tale: A League of Legends Story. Tasked with showcasing the game's diverse characters, environments, and gameplay, we curated a visual experience that invited fans to explore the depths of the game's universe.

Being a compact team, my role included wearing multiple hats. I worked in close collaboration with the creative director to map out both logistical and creative objectives, including the allocation of pages to each section and devising visual strategies to effectively spotlight featured assets. We envisioned the experience of flipping through the book to mirror the vibe of the game itself - explorative, whimsical, and cozy, inviting readers to immerse themselves in a journey akin to navigating the game world.
