  • Package design process and tutorial from start to end. How do you redesign a package? What is the packaging design process? Why is packaging important? How can design make something look more expensive? Can design change the perception of value for a commodity good?
    In this episode, Matthew takes on the same challenge the #FuturYoungGuns did. Matthew decided to redesign the packaging for Marukan Rice Vinegar. If you want to see what the Young Guns did for the same challenge, you can watch those episodes here
    Part 1: • Package Design Critiqu...
    Part 2: • Package Design Critiqu...
    The Young Guns had 2 weeks to do it. Matthew tries his best to complete the same task in one day. Can he do it? What do you think about his results?
    Here are the parameters:
    • Choose an ethnic food to redesign its packaging
    • Do not change the logo or colors
    • Must use all type, legal, barcode from the existing package
    The criteria:
    1. Position for high-end clients
    2. Appetite appeal
    3. Shelf presence
    4. Highlight product features
    5. Appropriateness

      All three options were really well researched and executed, but I really liked the secondary options more.

    As a newer designer this was super helpful to see the process in real time from a master level designer. I feel like a lot of us newer designers struggle with over thinking and over refining our work and that is where we lose the most of our time. For me I could have easily lost 6-8 hours just refining and changing my design (and would have ended up using one of the first few options). I love that Matthew told us he was stopping because his changes stopped making large differences. Am I the only one that wrote down the process steps?? Haha going to tattoo them on my forehead so I dont forget. Awesome work you guys!!

  • @tddavis
    @tddavis Před 5 lety +7

    I will say one of the things you should of researched is packaging regulation. As someone who has done a lot of packaging there are regulations that limit what you can do. Some descriptive type needs to be a certain size. Quantity declaration needs to be on front. A lot of designers overlook regulations when designing packaging. Design is also always about brand which tends to take more time than just designing something pretty. I would of also photographed a store shelf to see how the new design stands out from competitors products. You only have a few seconds to engage your audience.

    Although I liked that you decided to make things more high quality I would have really liked to see you stay within the constraints of a cheap bottle since that was your inspiration. Don't get me wrong, i think you did a great job on the designs. That being said it's oftentimes easy to make something look really pretty and high end when you have close to no restrictions. In reality Marukan could never do this and that's why they have their cheap branding. But it would be cool to see an actual viable cheap design that is compelling and visually superior to what Maruchan has now.

    It is a problem of knowing how to be productive. That's why they are young guns and need some help in guidance. Not only the design technique wise but also in the direction of being more productive, self-aware and goal oriented. There is sth to learn.
    Thank you for the video! it perfectly described the needed workflow for designing packaging, will try to recreate the steps in my work.

  • @jeffbrowngraphics
    @jeffbrowngraphics Před 5 lety +1

    I learned a lot in this video! Here are some of the differences I saw in this one compared to the young guns (generalizing)
    1. Matthew spent far more time researching, he looked into almost every element of research, not only the obvious ones, he looked at similar categories and picked his favorite thing about each one.
    2. He wrote things down clearly, and drew out rough sketches for the packaging, making a clear decision of what he did want and what he didn't. Many people say that this is very difficult to do without lots of experience, but I disagree. If you write things down or draw things as Matthew did, you just need to pick the one that works best and don't second guess it!
    3. He focused far more on the package design as a whole than the just the label design. In the young guns, the most successful design was the feta cheese because he focused on the package as well. Matthew was able to use transparency very well here.
    4. He worked on the label design while simultaneously displaying it on the mockup. This helped him make clear decisions because he could immediately see if it was working.
    5. He made far more variants than any of the young guns, he brought 4 or so up to a final level, but in the process, he tried dozens of ideas. Some worked and some didn't, but he was able to get many good results at the end of the day.
    6. He picked a more subtle approach in the final version where the label isn't as contrasted. I think it does look more expensive, it was a risk but a good risk to take.
    I really appreciated having this to contrast with the young guns, I learned a lot here. I have had a personal struggle between the "go with your gut" kind of feel I get from the young guns, and Matthew's steady, reliable, controlled way of getting to his results. He is patient and does everything in a very orderly way. I think the results are clear, this way of working is very efficient. He didn't just jump into the design right away, and it really paid off.
    Thanks so much for the video!

    The end part was golden and I think the design was beautiful but in packaging price also plays an important role you can't just choose which ever bottle you want(increases cost) also the legibility and purpose of the design as a whole was little confusing. Overall it was kind of impossible challenge so it was great that you even finished it(because of your process and experience) and a good exercise in that regard but not a good example to share. Craigslist is hideous beauty wise but design wise it works and is efficient. Sometimes our preferences, perception of beauty and thinking can be a hurdle for us, real life experience is the only antidote to that.

    @Santon-Motho Před 5 lety +6

    One thing that stood out for me as Matthew was designing, and this may be a no-brainer for more seasoned designers (food reference intended) but not so much for beginners, was that he was designing the packaging with the mock-up preview window open as well, which I think makes tweaking your designs much easier and quicker resulting in more time and energy available to explore more designs.
    Also, his overall design process was very good and thorough especially considering the amount of time he dedicated to the challenge (1 day vs 2 weeks). I hope the young guns are watching and taking tips because it all definitely highlights how they can become more efficient and not have to complain about time anymore.

    • @yangnamstyle
      @yangnamstyle Před 5 lety +1

      I don't believe we complained, more so we had other priorities such as freelance work on top of school and full-time jobs that we wished for more time to be able to explore more of the process and create work that would be worthy to show the team and you guys. 2 weeks also does not mean 2 weeks spent. For most of us, we really were able to block out maybe only a few hours on a weekend to do these projects and film. For me, this show was an opportunity for us to not just show you how we do things, but how we try new things and fail. Matthew's process is solid and I agree there is a lot for me to learn to be able to design as efficient as he does.

    Matthew, I think this is a great example of using available resources. When designers think of designing, they are usually thinking of creating all of the assets from scratch, hence the not enough time comment. You downloaded a nice mockup & some stock illustration and then everything else was just composition. The end result was favourable. Great Job and you even had enough time to document it all.

    This is exactly how i design concepts. It's worth mentioning a couple of things after this stage. Once a design is approved, I'll move into indesign or illustrator to create print ready artwork. This is where you can finesse grids and properly define the type hierarchy, colours etc. The choice between indesign or illustrator depends on the product, as things like flavour variations, region specific info, ingredients, regulatory standards etc is easier to manage in InDesign. Where as illustrator is easier for designing packaging with multi sides/folds etc.

I was trying to design the label as a rectangle trying to imagine what it will look like on the bottle and that is definitely a challenge.

    Matthew, I love the final product & your insight into your process. But you had an advantage that nobody that has taken part in the packaging challenge has had. Clearly Master Do does not allow
    the designer to change the package it self, because the new production cost. So technically this challenge's are packaging graphics re-brand & not package's redesign. I still appreciated all the effort you put into this tutorial & I love the final product.
    I have become a little disillusion with the challenges because everybody it's picking a different item. So one those not get to see how multiple designer approach the same exact item graphic's re-brand. So we are really comparing apples to oranges, but then again I'm not Master Do i'm just a simple grasshopper. I know there logistic issues & many other reasons why the challenge is not on the same single product.

    Man, super inspiring to see how you went at this and the final outcome looks great! Been trying to brainstorm self-initiated projects to build out my portfolio.

    This was really useful to watch! I've got a bachelor's degree in industrial design engineering (aka product design), but I was never good at actually designing. I missed the process and did not do much iteration and sketches or trying stuff out. Your video showed your process really well and it's really nice to see some of the processes that have been taught to me at university in such a clear manner (really practical, university is just too much theory). Thank you for such a great video!

    @javierflores2715 Před 2 lety

    I really love your challenge and what you did and putting your ideas together. There are though some things that I was thinking as I was watching your video. 1. I thought you would use the same packaging/bottle and just remake the label. If you have a product/package/bottle/label that has been around for a long time then it would be important to think if the company would want to be in the position of changing their bottle. 2. A whole remake of a label is practically a relaunch of a new product, which also means a whole marketing campaign for the company. 3. Many products are part of a specific branch of products, for instance: a red label product belongs to a specific branch of product and by changing one label you would either change the whole products branch or launge it as a completely new branch or product. All your ideas are great and I understand that you wanted to see if you could remake the label and see if you could do it in a day. I have to agree with a time of 1,5-2 weeks for the complete label, especially with products that have been around for a long time. Great job!

      Not really...
      When it’s a huge company like this that need to order millions of bottles it’s would be very cheap
      Less than $0.20
      Obviously more expensive than the cheap plastic bottle. Which probably costs them less than a penny by quantity
      The only reason and rightfully so that they won’t do this would be reputation and customer base.
      Their target isn’t 5 star restaurant chef executives that work with the highest of quality ingredients
      Which they will fail if they even try to sell it as that because it isn’t that.

    The final design looks nice and clean and I like it a lot. The thing is, when you work on a redesign of a really well known and loved brand you have to take care of aspects that made the brand /products what it became. Clients that are accustomed to buy a certain brand don’t even think about it when they grab it from the shelf, if you change everything they know about the product like the quantity, price, type of bottle, design etc There’s a good chance they might look elsewhere to compare. Be careful with brands that have been around forever, there is a reason why those brands don’t make huge redesign.

    Research is super important. A lot of designers jump right into designing without doing any research and that's where a lot of confusion and the endless iterations happen. I think I spend a lot more on research than designing sometimes. By the time I get to create the piece, it's way easier.
    I like how you mentioned also leaving some time off away from the process after the research on the sketching part and let all those chunks of info percolate or simmer before jumping into design. I think that's very important. Diffuse thinking states are great to connect the dots and come up with creative ideas. 👌

      @@MatthewEncina I love seeing the process more than I love seeing the result. You provide a lot of good information on how you start a project and how you end it. The way you do heavy research about the company is really nice. Even when choosing the bottle, you think about which bottle looks high end and how the goal is to make the product seem more expensive. You talk about hierarchy and which elements you want to stand out which is really nice. Everything about this is gold. You're just a trustworthy designer and I know that whatever you come up with there is a good reason behind everything. This is why I really enjoy the show "Building a Brand".
