Product Line: Woodstock Organics All Natural Organic Soup
Responsibility: Branding, Package Design & Illustration
Story:
As start up company with a timely idea, Woodstock Organics understood a niche no other product was yet filling. The owner with whom I worked directly, had finally gotten the trademark on the name, which was no mean feat. We spent hours discussing how to bring the soup product to market.
Designing the branding for the line was my first project. The logo and look of the packaging needed a constancy of purpose, earthy yet classic. Once set on the look, I met with the food scientist who was creating the actual product. To my delight the soup was absolutely delicious!
With 6 vats of soup I headed over to my food photographer where we styled the soup set ups and shot each bowl.
This was a project I handled from soup to nuts (just couldn't help that word play): branding, packaging and photo direction, including food styling and propping. Plus, I wrote the copy for the packages as well. My reward was an Ad Club of Westchester, Bronze Award for Logo & Package Design, Woodstock Organics.
