The Process
---------------------
In this video, I use Adobe Photoshop CC to turn 4 popular health food Package Designs into "junkfood" snacks. I'll show you how marketing and branding can make you believe a lot of different things. I used a variety of skills including: Logo Design, Illustration, Photobashing, and Painting to create each of these designs.

The companies should actually do this.. They’d quadruple their sales lol..

[@Seed]

@@BrandonShepI mean.. It’d work lol.. I’d probably buy that corn

[@cloudystarsky8381]

I'm predicting that this comment will be the top comment.

[@Pope_Balenciaga]

Not exactly. People who buy brands like that want to feel like they're eating healthy. That's why ads are designed that way.

[@ThatGuyCream]

I won't be surprised if Brandon ever gets to rebrand a product

[@OliverMan]

I love the way he ties the sponsor into the video so that you barely even notice you’re in the middle of a sponsorship.

[@drakesword5214]

And even if you did notice, there's still content in the sponser Mr.Beast-style so you have to watch it anyways. He even chose a sponser that'd interest his fans. This Shepard knows how to herd!

[@lexi-bankz]

This guy is literally the only person who can make me fully watch a sponsor. He's amazing

[@mrunankBathe]

I love how instead of just giving a presentation on the sponsor, he actually showed us all the functions of the sponsor and used it for the video. Amazing bro ❤

[@floor.mp3]

right??? i usually skip forward as soon as i hear "and then a word from our sponsor..." but this was so good! and such a fitting sponsor for the channel as well as im sure a lot of his viewers are interested in becoming better at graphic design

[@MazzyGG]

@@floor.mp3same, this should be how people do sponsors in videos cuz let’s be honest, everybody knows we just gonna skip the sponsors and just continue the video, don’t they?

[@ChunyingSong-np9us]

I know I always just skip the sponsor part but actually mixing the sponsor time with the actual entertaining content just makes the whole video alot better. Every youtuber should do this

[@devvux]

like this is my first time using something from a sponsorship (exept honey)

[@Bluemantopvids]

@@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist5dude this has nothing to do with brands, stop it man

[@mika_iran]

the la croix design was amazing, it absolutely boggled my mind how you managed to make text that looked genuinely 3D-rendered with nothing but 2D imagery. also, you do ads better than anyone else on this platform -- seriously

[@BrandonShep]

Really appreciate it! 😄

[@fairboy5349]

I agree. I'm used to skipping a lot of promotional ad scenes in most videos...but his ad feels like it is part of his work. Good job

[@MazzyGG]

@@fairboy5349same it made it more entertaining and doesn’t feel like a random sponsor that has nothing to do with the video, I’d usually just skip to finish watching the video but with here, oh boy things change.

[@vivishii_]

For real- this is my first time watching anything by this guy, and I was just sitting through that first monstrosity because I thought this was parody… then he redrew it and it turned out I was the joke 😢

So, all your designs are amazing, that's for sure - but the La Croix one is UNBELIEVABLE. Like, seriously. The detail, the branding, everything is just done perfectly. Great job! Keep it up!

[@WarpRulez]

Selling healthy food by making the package look like it's junk food? How hasn't any marketing team thought of that? It's ingenious.

[@BrandonShep]

To be fair, most food marketed as "healthy" isn't really, so I guess companies already do that lol

[@yohan2.098]

In my view, this video is truly outstanding. I really appreciate the dedication and hard work you have invested in producing it. What sets it apart is that it's the first sponsored content that I actually enjoy watching without any strong negative feelings towards it. The overall quality of this video goes beyond what I had expected. It really stands out to me because of the exceptional effort put into making it engaging and high-quality. The level of detail and creativity in this video sets it apart from others I have seen. It's evident that a lot of thought and effort has been put into this video. PS: just a tiny sidenote I think the idea came from me, because i commented on the last video this exact idea.

[@HelenaCross]

The Grape Gems one was super cute 😍 Love this series!

[@montananerd8244]

Fun fact: canned corn is already junky. Humans cant digest the kernels, even in all the bio engineering that got us from maize to corn (mostly not-techie engineering, but all cultivated plants are GMOs, which isnt bad). Canned corn is a high salt *starch* that does offer an aggressive amount of fiber, and all the vegetable properies are essentially gone... so it well deserves its new packaging! It IS a vegetable if eaten within 40 mins of picking & not over boiled, but we still cant digest it properly. I used to love it but my nutritionist mom treated corn like potato chips or tater tots in meal planning.

[@sweaterweatherlady]

In middle school, I quit corn and corn-based products (except my mom's cornbread) because of just how ineffective it was. Saved so much money on the family grocery list as a result!

[@antonioandrealencar1639]

Dam, thancks

[@ThePlacehole]

What kind of dietitian bullshit is that? Comparing the nutritional info with e.g. oatmeal says otherwise. Per weight, corn has 1/3 of the calories of oatmeal, but is 2/3 water, so it's roughly the same; and corn has only 1/4 of the fiber of oatmeal. Where the fuck did your mom get that corn is and indigestible fiber bomb?

[@GStrongDesigns]

​@@sweaterweatherladyyeah same, ever since middle school I didn't have corn as often as I do now. I'll have corn roughly every month to month and a half
