My finished piece of packaging - Happigreens Vegetable Snack Pack.
Vegetable packaging targeted towards young kids in hopes that they'll start eating healthy and not get fat, hehe.
The kids are lured in by way of a reward system: finish all the veggies to reveal a surprise collectable card that you can then take-out and keep (see this in action in my Rationale).
I constructed this piece (with the help of my dad -- I find it funny I'm a university student and still need dad to help me with homework ) using mostly tupperware, stanly knives (eek - cutting into hard plastic-- scary!), sand paper, glue, sticky tape, acetate, etc. It looks professional, but it's really not. It's just a mock up to give you a general idea.
That said, I WOULD have gotten it professionally vaccum-formed using the university's workshop, but SOMEONE kept putting it off and putting it off and breaking his word and being downright insensitive towards a student's needs, that in the end I chose to make it on my own.
For a more in depth look at things, see my Rationale.
The logo and graphics look nice (maybe they could have covered a little more of the packaging area). The cards are a cute idea, and would probably motivate kids pretty well to finish their vegies. I can imagine liking this when I was a little kid.
That said though, if I had kids, there's no way I would buy something like this. It looks like a wasteful amount of plastic for a just a handful of vegies.
whoa excelent work here. It really looks as if it was vacuum-formed, so professional even though you did it by hand. And the idea is just awesome; its sad to see how little kids have obessity troubles these days. If this was for sale, I'd buy one lol

Now, now. Perfectly symmetrical violence never solved anything
Thank you Alot of work went into that. I hope I do well.
I entered it into a packaging competition as welll. So that in itself ensures I get at least a participation certificate

A homemade cake. How sexy!
It's no shame to have your Dad help you make something that awesome.
It'd be a worry if it used a lot of elbow macceroni and sparkle glitter!
