Final Project









My company Tilt-A-Swirl Frozen Yogurt, is a self-serve frozen yogurt place that I would locate in my hometown York, PA. There is only one other frozen yogurt place in my town, and there is only one location which is on the other side of town for some people. If i were to open up this business, I would have multiple locations. The theme of my company is the circus/carnival. My intended audience is children and parents. The atmosphere would be fun and playful like a circus and if customers are unable to think of combinations of yogurt and topping we offer our company favorites, which also correlate with our theme. Combinations like lion tamer and fun house. The grey area in the JPG images were only used for cutting purposes, so I would be able to cut the tent stripes since it is white and red.

Brochure and Business Card Mockups/Sketches



My company Tilt-A-Swirl Frozen Yogurt is a carnival themed self serve frozen yogurt place. I wanted to incorporate the carnival tent/pattern in both my business card and brochure. Instead of doing a brochure I thought it would be appropriate to make a menu. I wanted to stick to red, white and blue for a color theme and correlate my menu and card so they kind of go together. These are just a few ideas I came up for each.

Cooperate Identity Questionnaire


1)   What is your business?
Self-serve frozen yogurt


2)   Describe your business in one sentence
We offer a variety of flavors of frozen yogurt and many different toppings, and customers are able to create whatever gets their taste buds watering.

3)   Who is your target audience?
Children ages 3-10, parents, teachers, children based organizations.


4)   Who are your competitors?
Sweet Frog Frozen Yogurt


5)   What makes them better/worse than your product/service?
Sweet Frog is currently the only frozen yogurt place in York, PA. It has a lot of choices for toppings and is continually switching out flavors. Their target audience is also children, they have a frog mascot that comes into the stores. What isn’t good is they only have one location, and for some customers it is a hike to get there. They are actually religiously affiliated, which could turn some customers away.


1)   How do you want your image to be seen in two years?
We want Tilt-A-Swirl to have several locations that are all the same environment and offer families with young children a fun, clean, and cheap place to treat their kids. I want to company to offer more flavors and toppings than competitors and offer different activities and fundraisers to help out the community and promote the business.


2)   If your company was an animal, what animal would it be and why?
A lion, because it fits in with the company theme of a Circus. It also represents the company as the king or leader of the business. Or an elephant because they are a large animal, so it could represent that the company is bigger than the others.

3)   If your company/brand was a person, who would it be and why?
The Ringling Brothers because they are one of the most famous people who own/started a circus. Their circus business is one of the most well known out of all circuses, and when you hear the name you automatically know who they are and what they do.

4)   If your company/brand was an object, what would it be?
A Carnival Tent, a ring of fire, a Farris wheel.

5)   If your customer was a cartoon character, who would it be?
Dumbo because little kids would be attracted to him since he is a well known character. He is the protagonist in the movie, and that will represent the company well. We want to be known as the good guys.

Lyrical Collage



I chose the song Lay Me Down by my favorite band The Dirty Heads. The song is about a couple who is running away to somewhere by a beach. In my piece I had incorporated fish and a girl swimming in a boy's blue eyes. This helps represent the line "I said it's hot outside, let me go swimming in your eyes" I also found a picture of a sunset and then I added a picture of a couple into the beach scene. I used a total of 5 different images in this piece.

below I have included the original images.
