Good Food Packaging Designs
#1 - Pop Chips
Good because of the minimalist style, including it's monochromatic color schemes (save for the chips of coarse), and its contemporary all lower case sans serif type treatment and it's amazing logo featuring knocked lettering.
#2 - Yellow Tail Wine
Good again because of it's minimalist style offering appeal to younger wine drinkers. The consistency between wine varieties offers brand recognition and the color variations draw the eye to the bottles on the shelf.
#3 - Captain Crunch
Good Because of it's bright color and clutter-free layout. High contrast between the logo and background offer immediate brand recognition. Features a child friendly mascot, catchy slogan, and even preview of the cereal itself.
#4 - Dryer's Fruit Bars (Lime)
Good because its colorful, fresh look. Features fresh cut limes glistening with morning dew, a product highlight, and what seams like certifications on the bottom right which add to the credibility of the product.
#5 Ale Smith Wee Heavy
Great design because of it's elegance and similarity to wine or champagne packaging. Features a clean and recognizable logo, and creative product type treatment which further emphasizes its Scottish heritage.

New Blog for 446
So I updated this blog for a new class... art 446, Packaging Design. I hope you guys like it. I'm excited to take this class as it is only one of two more classes I need before I graduate. I know the whole blogging thing is weird at first but for those of you who don't or havent at least done it for class before, it's not too bad. Think of it like a class discussion on moodle only you get to design what other people see when they are responding to your topics and what not. It's also a great way to see all the work you've done throughout the semester and it can even be helpful if you need to turn in work on a day when you can;t make it to class. Anyway good luck and happy blogging... :)

The View Askewstival
So I decided that my movie festival would be a Kevin Smith's, View Askew movie's, movie festival.
This is Kevin Smith....He's a director. He owns a production company called View Askew Productions which is responsible for movies such as....
Another key element of all the View Askew movies is their cast, many of the characters remain the same throughout all the titles, most notable are Jay and Silent Bob. He also likes to cast Ben Affleck a lot. I dont like Ben Afflek but apparently Kevin Smith does. Anyway Kevin Smith directs a lot of satirical and witty comedy movies most of which I grew up watching in Jr. High and High School. I picked these because they are light hearted, funny, and since I've grown up with them I have a bit of an affinity to them. Also since Kevin Smith is a big comic book nerd I figured comic book illustrations would easily suit the franchise and create an interesting style for my new movie posters.
