As most of the customers I deal with spend a vast amount of money on brand identity I find much of your approach would be met by a raised eyebrow. To me as a packaging CAD designer you have glossed over a fundamental element of the design. The true function. The ability to get the product from A to B undamaged. The rest is the remit of the brand agency.
Thanks for the comment. This is not about CAD design but more taking a box that is already proven to be functional by a manufacturer and putting a design on it.
Can you please make videos on real estate designs? I really wanna see you creating some social media posts designs. It's really appreciated for making such interesting and beneficial videos. Thank you 💕
@@4TheCreatives thanks Lauren. Recently subscribed to your Consistent Clients Blueprint waitlist. Will soon buy your Graphic Design Fundamentals after finishing other small courses I’ve already started. I don’t know if you remember me, I’m Luca from Italy and I wrote an email to you to which you already answered, telling you that I’m sick and tired of corporate job and want to move to freelance. I told you I want to focus on the Luxury graphic design niche, although I don’t think it is really a niche because it encompasses branding, website design, UI and everything….maybe “branding” is the niche and I can focus on branding for different companies?
First of all, you look fantastic, the dress is in perfect harmony with your skin color. The packaging design and the whole process was very informative and there was a lot to learn. Kindly make a video on communication with the client and how to share your design and artwork. I am watching your videos these days. I am learning this art and your videos are very helpful.
Awesome work. Self taught and always been the solo designer with any company I've worked. Validating to see your design process is like watching a clone of my own. Thanks for sharing 👍
Adobe Indesign maybe a good tools for packaging design and I will download the software later and maybe it will be my first choose before I use the packaging design app.It is so happy to meet your video
You are just amazing you killed it😃 I prefer learning such projects your content is the best go. Thanks for your help I have just started getting interested in graphic designing. Learning from here
Hey there! Thanks very much for watching this video on the basics of graphic design! Download my FREE Guide to 6 Exercises to Learn Graphic Design in the description of this video.
Wow, this is absolutely amazing! 1) Do we need that drawing E pad you’re using? 2) what program was this? 3) how would one move this to get printed for a physical copy?
Very neat! I love how you showed your process. And yes! I agree sketching first give your a wider range of possibilities ! Interesting you use Adobe Indesign, I would have done on Illustrator. Do you have a reason why you prefer Indesign? Thanks and congrats on the final packaging!
Thank you! I have always done all my packaging and print projects in InDesign. I feel it is much easier to work with and it is vector based too so the type and images still show up crisply.
Hi Lauren, this video was insightful 👍 Research is the basis of any design. It adds value & purpose for the process. I agree with you on this 🤝 I’ve worked in McKinsey not as consultant but as process associate in accounts payable. Before proceeding with any projects from the client consultants always perform a feasibility study to ensure the need & value in the project. 👉 This resonated with me Thank you so much for sharing 😎
So glad to hear you say this, Isaiah. I have run into designers saying it is too much work to try and do the research, but your experience and points backs up what I always try to make them realize. Thanks so much for sharing this 😉
Great video! Question: How do you know if the image of the orange is copyrighted, or what do you do to check for copyrights on images you find on the internet?
@@4TheCreatives ofcourse I use PS n Light room for photo editing but not familiar with Illustrator... Also here in printing industry, corel is widely used
Those are great programs but I use InDesign not Illustrator and the reason I like it for packaging is that it keeps the type vector based so it prints crisp. 😉
These are usually provided by the manufacturer or printer unless you are creating the mold of the box yourself. There are also sites like Pacdora that can generate the die lines for you but I prefer to get it from the manufacturer via the client.
You’re welcome and I am not looking to hire designers right now but if you want to grow your design business just follow the steps I lay out on my channel

@@4TheCreatives Not really, I wanted to know how you wrapped the design around the box (the process between 8:05 to 8:30), You said, " I am gonna export it to a box maker/marker so that we may see how it looks like on the amazon shelf" which software did you export it to?
@@4TheCreatives this answer here is what brought me to your channel. Currently have a package design I'm working on and wasn't sure how to go about creating the dieline for the box (package in which a lunch box can be shipped). The supplier (from china) only sent the dimensions (WxHxG) and that's it! On seeing this, I sent her a followup mail requesting for the dielines. hope I haven't risked sounding like a newbie. Lol
No offense you're doing awesome, BUT JUST ONE critique to hopefully make you better :)....your typeface choices aren't evoking the brand and also discards font knowledge on overall....do let me know if u feel I have some misknowledge!
Thanks for your comment. As I’ve mentioned I did their brand identity years ago and for the kitchen space it’s a bold font contrasted with a serif from the logo. Not sure what typography knowledge you’re referring to. Here’s a video I made on the subject: ruclips.net/video/CY_0J27nM0M/видео.html
@@4TheCreatives that serif with sans serif and the serif in the logo isn't evoking the affordability or consistency part of the brand in my opinion...am I of the right mindset or not? hope u help to increase my knowledge! :)
Affordability is only one element in it. The brand is sophisticated yet affordable and the serif helps to convey the sophisticated element while the sans serif is the bold element.
Absolutely loved watching your video. You are a real inspiration and you explanations are great.

Thats not the Industry standard. Adobe is
Awesome work, Inspiring!

This is incredible amazing and I just want to ask you about how to make this design for the package itself, and what about the mock ups?
You mean the die line? The mock-up can be gotten online.
@@4TheCreatives yes i mean that die lines, how can i make such design for a package
You usually get this from supplier, otherwise there are websites that can generate them for you.
Excellent approach! 😍
I appreciate you watching!
Heyyy, nice hat.
Hi! I wonder where do you get the dye line for the packages? Did you download the lines online?
These are usually provided by the manufacturer or printer unless you are creating the mold of the box yourself. There are also sites like Pacdora that can generate the die lines for you but I prefer to get it from the manufacturer via the client.
I just noticed that include was misspelled
Yes, it was corrected before going to print. Thanks!
Can you design a package for my retail product? I had a meeting with do it best hardware today and they said i need it packaged for retail. Thank You

thnx for sharing..

You’re welcome and I am not looking to hire designers right now but if you want to grow your design business just follow the steps I lay out on my channel
I have a question. Where does the prototype process come in
Good question! I mainly deal with manufacturers in China so they create it and send me pics. It should be done before the final approval and turnover.
Please teach me pakage design
I would check out Domestika for some good package design courses: www.domestika.org/en?atag=71b539&
How much do you charge for one box design?
Depends on the complexity and if I need to do their brand identity or not. Average $1200
After designing everything. what is the next steps to turn this digital image to a real box ?
It goes to the printer.
@@4TheCreatives so he suppose to know where the cut and the fold lines by him self or should the designer include them in the die - line 🤔 ?
The dieline should be provided by the printer originally.
@@4TheCreatives thank you for your time appreciation ❤

Which platforms are more helpful you to get client.
Please tell mam
It depends on where your ideal client is online. I don’t use any specific platform like Upwork or Fiverr.

How to sketch a box or know the size for packaging?

You mean printer? Or you mean die line? My client finds them usually.

@@eston4951 oh yes that is a MOCK-UP. I downloaded a PSD mock-up of a box and then using Photoshop I applied my design.

The supplier of my client provides it. And the mock-ups are from Creative Market or Yellow Images.
@@4TheCreatives hi what do mean by supplier here, I mean I am new to this field and learning at home, learning so much from your channel, thanks.

Do a mood board to set the tone and think with who you’re trying to target. I’d look up “color theory” on RUclips and watch some tutorials.
