Cosmic Cow Shakes & Shapes

Cosmic Cow Shakes is a fictional Ice cream shop from the Planet Coaster video game. I have used it as inspiration for this assignment and wanted to show how one can use shapes to focus attention on a logo or brand.

Chic and Hydrated
October 12, 2025
Mila Petkovic
This piece blends a chic, modern aesthetic with a touch of humor. Using Photoshop shape layers, I created a minimalist martini glass layered over a bold red texture and cheetah print background for contrast. The phrase “Stay Hydrated” adds a playful twist to the clean, fashion-inspired design, simple, stylish, and a little cheeky.

October 12, 2025
Cambell Wamsley
For this project, I wanted to make a design that felt fast and strong, kind of like a modern sports ad. I used a photo of a runner and built everything else with shapes to show motion and energy. I layered circles and angled lines in purple and blue to make it look like she’s

October 8, 2025
Van Thlan
Based on the feedback that I received, I tried to find a different photo background that fit a little bit more. Unfortunately, the focal depth still is too narrow. That being said, thanks for the tips on removing the matting on the photos. It helped to sell the image of the dinosaurs being more in

Jordan Shane

Mila Petkovic
This ad promotes Contoso Cooking Academy as a place where passion meets profession.
