Project overview

I had the privilege of working with the creator of A Practical Witch on building their first brand identity in February of 2023. A Practical Witch aims to offer free, readily available tarot readings on Youtube to help people grow inward.

Christina came to me with two goals in mind. First, she wanted to create a brand identity that reflected her own personality for her new Youtube channel. Secondly, she wanted a brand that she could eventually build into a company that offers personalized readings by request, along with metaphysical gifts, crystals and plants online. My solution was to interface closely with Christina, understand what the brand meant to her, and design a visual system that reflected her passion for "dark academia meets plant lady" vibes.

A Versatile System to grow into

In considering the goal of APW were to build a Youtube channel first and foremost, I know we needed to create a flexible system that could work at any scale. The challenge in this was that the client wanted the brand tone to reflect the ornate nature of "dark academia" aesthetic. This meant we had to find a way to achieve scalability without losing the essence of the aesthetic.

The solution was to design various lockups that could utilized across different scales and applications. This also gave APW more power in design for merchandise once she was ready to launch an ecommerce shop.

I also built out an iconography system that would help create a distinction between the various types of tarot content that Christina was creating. This allows her audience to quickly denote the difference and find the content best fit for them from the wide range of videos she makes. It also gave her additional design elements to utilize in potential merchandise.

The Result

In the two months since launching the new brand identity, Christina has increased her Youtube following by over 400%. Her channel growth rate has skyrocketed since creating a brand identity that reflected both her own personality as a content creator and the content itself.
