Box packaging designed for music software

music software box packaging design

This is a sierra box for a music software company that I did some work on. I did the photo montage of the DJ. This design will also be rolled out onto the amaray cases (DVD case), DVD or CD disc labels, a manual cover and advertising.

I loved doing this work. One, it was a music product; two, I like doing montages.

It was necessary to get a feel that anyone could use this software and immediately feel like there DJing in a club with hundreds of people dancing.

Here are some other sierra boxes I did for the same music software company.

Below you can see some of the options I came up with during the design process.

Hi Rob,

I saw this in your portfolio. I think the design is pretty cool. The blurring you did on the girl with the headphones on is a nice touch also for the overall look of the packaging design

Thanks, Brian, your comments are always welcome. We were especially keen to make it look like the girl was connected to the background and blurring her helped in this particularly.

I like the picture in 5 for the box best.It looks like she’s havin’ a good time. Number 8 looks like she is in customer service.

Ha ha! I liked picture 5 too. The client was keen on the customer service girl!

I think the image is defintely eye catching. I like the way you have lots of small people dancing away in the background, it really gives the feeling that the Dj is rockin the party. Cool concept.

Thank you Packaging Man. I think the small people were better and wilder in the earlier concepts!

Did you use photoshop for this? It would be nice to see step by step snapshots of how you accomplished this. I think image branding is very important for selling products, so having this type of skill is crucial for marketing. Good job!

Yes, I used mostly Photoshop for this job. I don’t what you mean by step by step snapshots of how I did it but here’s an article about how to create a 3D box shape: http://robcubbon.com/how-to-design-a-3d-box-or-cube-in-photoshop/

A very clean and modern design in my opinion.
