Unlikely Softdrink

Unlikely Soft Drink Project

_________________________________________

Create an Unlikely Soft Drink (or energy drink). Be creative, it doesn’t have to be something that you would actually drink. A spoof  of an existing drink is perfect for this project. You could create a completely new drink as well.

Part 1 – The Illustration

Create your illustration by:

1.  Start by drawing a “Character” to represent the product.

2.  Draw it in pencil until it looks the way you want it.

3.  Outline with a fine point marker in black.

4.  Scan the image. (place in folder and I'll scan the image by the next day.)

5.  Colorize the image in Photoshop.

6.  Print and hand in for a grade.

Finished Artwork ready for submission.

Part 2 – The Label

Using the label template, combine your illustration and text to make a product label.

The template can be found in the Boccini Directory in the “Student Commons”. The template is from a “Dasani” bottle. You can follow the general look of this bottle or deviate as needed.

Your label must include:

1. Your Illustration – Consider placing it in an oval.
2. Product name showing your knowledge of text effects. Use text effects we have practiced in class, or find new effects online. Choose a type style that reflects the “idea” behind the product.
3. Recycle logo (found in Boccini Directory in the “Student Commons”)
4. Nutritional information.
5. Ingredients.

Part 3 – Mock-up

Cut our a printed label and apply to a “Dasani” bottle. (Second Grade)

Cereal Box Project

Breakfast cereal, how often did you beg your mom to get your favorite cereal. Maybe it was Captain Crunch or Frankenberry. Talk about a sugar rush! Check out this article rating the "10 worst" kids' cereals for sugar.

Take a look at some old school breakfast cereal TV ads at Mr. Breakfast.com. Some of the ads are so old that I remember them! :)

Your Assignment:

Create a novel breakfast cereal. Use your imagination. What demographic is the product aimed at? Children? Old Folks? Terrorists?

1. Include a bowl of the product with its “special” ingredient. (Musket balls)

2. Size – 7.5x10.5 inches

3. Your main graphic must show your knowledge of image manipulation. (Milk coming out of the barrel)

4. Company logo must be included.

5. Promotional “Extra” (Prize inside)

6. Weight on bottom (10.5 oz.)

7. Round Shield with nutritional information.

8.. After you have created the graphic, manipulate it and place it on the cereal box blank found in the Boccini directory in the Teacher Share directory. Use the Perspective, Skew and Distort features to fit the image into the box. Change color to suit you design.
