P-3: Packaging and POP (Option II)

This project is the comprehensive packaging and point-of-sale design for a product.

This will include the identity, branding and design of a three product package collection along with either, a significant point of sale display for the packages, or a comprehensive ad campaign to market the product.

You may choose existing product packaging which you can re-brand, re-position and re-design, or you can start from scratch with a totally new and unique product. I suggest you select a product you are familiar with and have a good working knowledge of. Your Initial project research will include at least two representative examples of product packaging, pop displays and/or product advertising.

Designers

Tony - Beer Packaging; Bo - Bicycle Parts Packaging; Brynn - Candy Packaging
