The work
At Britax and Steelcraft, I had the opportunity to expand my creative skill set by directing both product design and marketing initiatives. I worked on branding newly developed products, designing packaging, and creating go-to-market campaign launches that captured consumer attention. In addition, I produced educational collateral for stockists and sales assistants, ensuring the brands’ messages were communicated clearly and consistently across all touchpoints.
A significant part of my role was leading the rebranding of both Britax and Steelcraft. This included developing strategic social media and web campaigns that strengthened digital presence and drove engagement. I also spearheaded photoshoots, managing everything from organisation and direction to capturing images behind the camera myself. This hands-on approach allowed me to maintain complete creative oversight and deliver content that elevated the brands.
Attention to detail was critical in this role, particularly within the highly regulated childcare category. During the launch of the b-Compaq seat, I recognised a gap between complex technical development and the customer’s need for clarity and reassurance.
Installation guidance had traditionally been delivered through static manuals and compliance-led documentation. The internal solution was to refine layout and visual clarity while keeping the format unchanged.
I proposed a different direction. Rather than updating the manual, I recommended developing a narrative-led animated installation guide that would be integrated directly into the product experience via a QR code on the seat itself.
This meant the content had to be developed in parallel with the product. Over six months, I led storyboard workshops with my design team, product managers and engineers while the seat was still in development. As technical specifications evolved, the narrative and visuals had to evolve with them. The process required constant alignment to ensure accuracy, compliance and clarity.
Working with an animation agency in Singapore, I directed the creative execution, shaping the script structure, pacing, tone and visual language. The challenge was translating detailed engineering language into a clear, reassuring story without compromising regulatory precision.
The result was a scalable digital asset embedded into the product journey. Customers could scan the QR code and access an intuitive visual guide, making installation easier and extending the brand experience beyond the box. It shifted instructional design from a static requirement to an integrated, customer-first solution.
