PREMIUM PACKAGING FOR CUTTING EDGE SPORT FUEL
___
I led and collaborated on many packaging projects with Gatorade over the course of a several-year relationship. Ranging from limited time product that supported promotional campaigns, to building packaging systems for core product that highlighted occasion-use benefits within the larger Gatorade product family.

Many of these efforts came directly from product marketing, launching new products in a series or entire product families that needed to sit next to core-branded product but feel distinctly different or leverage established design cues for the space.

All designs were rigorously tested in retail contexts - eye tracking, shelf blocking, etc. Optimizations were created for major retailers such as Costco and Walmart. Some design solutions required additional photo illustration or collaboration and direction with photographers to capture flavor/texture appeal of product.

Limited time offerings were more conceptual, often timed with certain events in sport. Several concepts for packaging were presented, and our client would select one to apply existing product and retail pos displays with the visual language I established. Occasionally relationships were leveraged, such as the DC Comics Football Superhero release featured.
