Simplicity again.

Just another example here of how simplicity can do great things for packaging. All these packets look really professional, really appealing and give a clear example of what the product is inside the wrapper. I can't upload images because I can't save them on the college computers but here is the behance link so I can do it at home.

RMB - HSBC Advert

I've banged this in, just because it's a really nice thing to look at quite simply. It's some really nice type and type is something I want to get as much influence as I can for when I come to working out how I'm going to rebrand/repackage the products I choose. This was created by a graphic design agency called GREY London.

 

 

Some Vegan stuff?

Against a simple use of Type, combined with the colours that can natural from many different fruits,veg and roots has managed to made a simple yet effective package. Honestly the reason I included this was because The packaging really is extremely simple, It's a clear bottle that just utilises the natural colour of products to make the bottles look great. Without the actually contents the bottles would probably look a little bit stupid.

Mr Milk Branding

This is brand poster and packaging example for a product called Mr Milk? Again it's just a pretty nice use of a 3D effect which always has a soft spot in my heart. But yeah, this again is pretty much an example of how simplicity really can be a great way to go about packaging, There is barely anything on the Bottle but it actually looks great.

Pure Packaging

This is packaging for some products called Pure? I just like these because they have little illustrations on them that are generally quite pleasant. Aside from the illustrations the bottles/boxes tend to actually just looks pretty "Pure" so I think the packaging really does suit the name of the brand! 

Lager cans.

Now these aren't particularly create examples of nice packaging. BUT. I put these in because they aren't actually cans.. They are 3D, made in C4D but actually all look like cans? I'm not expecting to be able to make anything close to this but wouldn't mind trying mock up packaging within the 3D software I have.

Sunshine Drinks.

Put these up just because of the interesting use of Type, honestly I'm pretty sure my final piece is probably going to have a fair amount of it on as it's something I'm passionate about, whether this would work for a drink like Coke or Sprite? Who knows but I will be testing it!

 Just a picture to show three cans of this together. Really, do like these.

Cadburys Branding.

Honeslty I've put this here for my Sketchbook. Found it on Behance, it's different emblems/icons done for Cadburys that depict the different flavours.

 

BOXED LIQUID

This is just showing its possible to box liquids, this is a product I found where people actually have water from card board, not only is this sustainable, at least more so then plastic. It should.. effect taste less? and be easily to make! This is starting to push me more towards re designing the packaging for popular drinks products into more eco friendly, sustainable, stackable, healthier portion sizes and just generally better.

More packaging

Used this one because it shows the symmetry again, I know it looks very uniform, but in terms of practicality, ease to make and just general aesthetics, I actually might want to use something like this. I could create something like this and actually make it work, but how would it work for a drink or something?

Eggs?!

Banged this in here (Obviously nothing like this could be done in England) but these are five eggs wrapped in rice straw? It just shows the level of detail and intricacy that has gone in to simply presenting and holding 5 eggs. I want to create something equally as intricate while still keeping it practical for today's market.

Mock FMP Sketches.

Just a couple of photos from my sketch book for my mock FMP project where I have been deciding what to products could give a slight dumb down. Things like just putting an invisibility cloak on just a plain coat rack and seeing who buys it, this was to show how dull and boring sales methods can make the most amazing products just plain and boring.

This was a page looking at the ring, trying to think if I could change it, it was actually quite difficult and I didn't actually end up going with it.

Yeah this was where I decided against it. The ring is just plain boring packaging and there is really no way to sell THE RING in a way that is any different to how anyone else sells a ring.

Trying to work which items I could use, what films I could take things from. This sheet again was just a fast idea generation which is pretty much all my sketchbooks ever are. 

Golden Compass?

Light sabres?

THE FORCE. This was what I settled on. How could you not like the idea of bottling up the force and making it into something mundane and boring that could be sold next to a whole host of things without looking remotely interesting.

Sketch book work.

Been filling out a sketchbook. Starting to really enjoy this way of going through projects. I could really do with a colour printer though as printing is becoming a massive pain in my arse whenever I need to put something in there.

Harry Potter.

This is a product list for Harry Potter. Just posting here as reference so I can go back and grab some things from it for my sketch book.  It's a list of Joke Products, Some sweets and a few other things that I have been looking for...
