For The Realm Co.’s KRAMPUS ballet, this project reimagined Krampus as a fun 3D cartoon illustration designed to delight attendees and extend the show’s world beyond the stage. The artwork was produced as a Pokémon-inspired 3D collectible card sold alongside ticket purchases, giving audiences a memorable take-home piece that doubled as merchandise. In addition to the printed card, the design was also developed into a 3D-printed version sold throughout the month, expanding the product line into a tactile keepsake. The client’s response was overwhelmingly positive—they loved the final result and said the design “cooked,” reflecting a strong creative fit and confident execution. Audience sales followed, and the launch even created a personal, fan-facing moment: the cards were signed for the company owners and the lead Krampus dancer (the production’s central antagonist), reinforcing the piece as a true collectible tied to the experience.
