My employer has some pretty big names as clients. One of them used to be Toys “R” Us and I’ve done a lot of work for them. One of it was the ‘Sinterklaas’ brochure.
Sinterklaas is a traditional Winter holiday in The Netherlands. A lot of presents are given by the old man to a lot of children so that’s why Toys “R” Us releases their biggest folder in the year for that occassion.
When asked to work on this project I didn’t think I would be involved so much as I did. Except for the multimedia pages I’ve worked on every page of the ‘book’. The cover, intro-page, backgrounds, prize-indicators and several illustrations came from my hand.
Too bad Toys “R” Us left us as a client and doesn’t exist in The Netherlands anymore. All the toy stores became ToysXL stores. I wonder what their winter holiday brochure looks like this year.
