Title: Product Packaging Mockup: Choose a product and create a mockup of its packaging design.
Use a mockup tool that specializes in packaging design or graphic design. Design the product
packaging, including the layout, colors, logos, and product visuals. Showcase the packaging design
from different angles and perspectives.
I. Poster or Flyer Mockup: Select a specific event, campaign, or promotional material. Design a
poster or flyer using a graphic design tool with mockup capabilities. Create a visually appealing
mockup of the poster or flyer in different sizes and formats. Showcase the design within a realistic
environment or context, such as a wall or display.
Prerequisites:
Human Computer Interface and Design Thinking
Objectives: Create a mockup for product packaging and a poster or flyer, showcasing your
design skills in a realistic context using graphic design tools.
Outcomes:
1. Choose a Product
• Select a product for which you want to design packaging. This could be anything from a
beverage bottle, cosmetic item, food product, or a tech gadget.
• Example: A premium organic skincare cream.
• Use tools like Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Figma, or specialized mockup tools like
Placeit or Mockup World.
• Steps:
1. Sketch Initial Concepts: Roughly layout the design elements on paper or digitally.
2. Create the Packaging Design:
▪ Front Panel: Brand name, product name, key visual, and primary
information.
▪ Back Panel: Detailed product description, ingredients, barcode, and legal
information.
▪ Side Panels: Additional information, logos, or certifications (e.g., eco-
friendly, cruelty-free).
3. Choose Colors and Fonts:
▪ Use colors that reflect the product's essence (e.g., green for organic
products).
▪ Select fonts that match the brand's identity (e.g., modern sans-serif for tech
products).
4. Incorporate Logos and Graphics:
▪ Position the brand logo prominently.
▪ Use graphics or patterns that complement the product (e.g., leaf patterns for
skincare).
• Use tools like Adobe Dimension, Placeit, or Mockup PSD templates in Photoshop.
• Steps:
1. Choose a mockup template that matches your packaging type (e.g., box, bottle,
pouch).
2. Place your design onto the mockup using the “smart object” feature in Photoshop
or directly within the mockup tool.
3. Adjust the design to fit the packaging, ensuring that all elements are clear and
aligned.
• Render the packaging mockup from different angles (e.g., front view, side view, and top
view).
• Showcase the mockup in a realistic environment (e.g., store shelf, bathroom counter).
• Create a presentation with multiple views and detail shots of the packaging.
Poster or Flyer Mockup
• Select an event or campaign to promote. This could be a concert, product launch, charity
event, or sales promotion.
• Example: A music festival poster.
• Theme and Tone: Determine the overall feel (e.g., vibrant and energetic for a music
festival).
• Key Information: Event name, date, location, featured acts, and ticket information.
• Visuals: Background images, event logos, and illustrations related to the theme.
• Use mockup tools like Placeit, Mockup World, or Photoshop PSD templates.
• Steps:
1. Choose a mockup template that suits your design format (e.g., A4 size, digital
billboard).
2. Place your poster or flyer design onto the mockup using “smart object” layers in
Photoshop or the direct upload feature in a mockup tool.
3. Adjust the design for clarity and visibility.
• Present the poster or flyer in different sizes and formats (e.g., large poster, digital banner).
• Display the mockup in realistic environments such as:
o A wall in a public space.
o A digital screen at a bus stop.
o A flyer stand in a store.
• Create a presentation with various views and formats to highlight the versatility of your
design.
