Creative Direction

The Manta Trust needed a creative way to illustrate and engage children aged 7–14 with the ocean ecosystem, turning complex marine science into something young readers could actually enjoy learning. The challenge wasn't just explaining the research, it was making ocean conservation feel fun and tangible for children, across a booklet that needed to combine educational facts with games and illustration to hold their attention.

More than that, it meant reframing conservation as an exciting adventure rather than a dry lesson, giving young readers a reason to feel curious and invested in the future of manta rays and marine ecosystems rather than switched off by it.

What the client says

Chris was a great designer who understood the brief perfectly and was very dedicated to fulfilling it as we wanted it, as well as passionate about the project itself. He created three very creative concepts and a final 32 page illustrated booklet for schools for us. He was efficient and communicative throughout. We will definitely work with Chris again.
