The Process
---------------------
In this video I use Adobe Photoshop CC to redesign 5 popular Package Designs from famous brands. Each package design required a unique set of skills to complete. My main focus was on simplifying the logos, colors, fonts, typography, layouts, and overall design style. I created some custom illustrations using Photoshop.

This was a great design challenge, and it's something I recommend everyone try out!

    My favorite is the Gatorade one. I do always find it odd why they used grey on their packaging. Grey definitely does not show energy but rather lack there of.

    I thought he was gonna over simply everything way to much as a joke, but the designs seriously look good, the cam bells,and the orbit look especially official!
  • @TheKNIGHTELFMOHAWK
    5:55 that’s actually a genius idea have the lighting bolt be different color based on which flavor it is
  • @AkMackakay
    The “Dawn” one was short but the duck : ADORABLE! You blow my mind how you do things I would never think of doing. Keep up the super work!!!
  • @offlinealyssa
    The Gatorade & Orbit redesign were by far my favorites! I would love to see those in stores one day!
  • @kidcoma1340
    I have to say I really like the „trashy“ cheetos design and think it‘s part of the brand appeal. Like, you don’t buy cheetos because you want something fancy, you want quick and dirty satisfaction
  • @user-hd6hh3re5h
    Now this man does logo simplifying right in my eyes. Actually taking away all the unnecessary mess and fluff from the original and making it neater without removing too much of the personality. The Gatorade stands out as my favorite.
  • @blueaxolotl2853
    This is minimalism done right, i do still prefer some of the designs over yours, but yours are still probably the best simplified brands ive seen. my only real nit pick is that you didnt add some white on the bottom of the campbells soup can, i mean, having 2 colors on the top and on the bottom on a can is pretty much campbells brand.
  • @b_megamaths
    I think you're honestly just really good at adding character to designs. Whether that means simplification or overcomplication, you really make it pop.
  • @cloudshark8730
    I think the dawn one is very pretty, but the duck looks more like a rubber duck and it doesn’t evoke that eco-friendly feeling. Other than that, great work! I truly love your design work and your unique style 💕💕
  • @misterglo1394
    My only problem with these is the Cheetos one, you made a beautiful papery fire effect, but it looks strange compared to the detailed cheeto, although difficult it would be good for the cheeto to have that papery effect. I absolutely love the Gatorade though
  • @Ourii
    i think the reason the gatorade text is so small is because the logo and bottle itself is so iconic you don’t really need the text to know it’s gatorade
  • @JERPII
    Brandon’s the only person who can make oversimplification so complex.
  • @radfree9370
    The Dawn redesign was soo good! But It's a little too cute, you know? Feels more like a babies shampoo, I think. The Gatorade one was my favorite easily, I really like the lightning being cut out, it's a really cool touch!
  • @tematrixmayhem
    1:56 I literally was now working on a design with a yellow background that had an ugly black shadow. Thank you.
  • @cyn9614
    With your "minimalistic" design you put an emphasis on modernity which the majority of graphic designs in charge of corporation logos miss the mark on. This was where the "simplistic = bad" hate originated from, and it's appreciated to see someone do it right. Instead of just slapping a few elements on the packaging, you apply logic and a theme which ultimately utilizes the purpose of simplism, which is to center the attention to the actual product. Great video! keep it up.
  • @aurilious7726
    I liked all of them! The only one I was a little hesitant about was the Campbell's, I think taking away the half red/half white background made the can a little too unrecognizable. The type where if you were looking for it in the store, you would have to double take at it because it's not immediately standing out.
  • @rianhines8747
    The techniques and ways of thinking you convey with these definitely are gonna help in my own designs
