So my apologies, I can't get on the server from my laptop so I don't have the PDFs to show you now for the food feature. But you can see it tomorrow! I'll get them up here tomorrow at some point in case you want to see non-newsprint versions.
I was really proud of the way it turned out. Since the photos weren't like totally stellar or anything, I wanted my typography to be subtle and the crops to be bolder to add some oomph to the photos. I think my fish one is the favorite. Those colors.....yum.
I tried to take the detail shots and make them just like nice scene setters or backgrounds to the main photos of the people in the farmer and the garden stories. I also tried to use some nice spot colors to give a nice tone to the package. It's very earthy and natural feeling.
Helvetica Neue Ultralight is my weakness. I've been wanting to design a package with this all semester long so I figured I'd take this as my last chance to try to sell it. I think it worked really nicely with this particular package because the stories are about eating healthier, knowing where you're food comes from, etc. so it's not like a gluttonous food package. I think the lightness of the type also helps the colors in the photos pop.
Also, props to Kathryn for her wonderfully done salt charticle using the style I set up. Looks really good!
