Making a Splash with a Fresh New Look for Epoca Banana Milk When Epoca asked us to reimagine their Banana Milk brand positioning and package design, our goal was to evoke a sense of playfulness that resonated with both children and adults alike. The result is a contemporary design that captures the essence of the product while sparking childlike joy. For the full case study please visit our website at https://lnkd.in/gbamvNxe

Say 👋 to Annika Greenawalt, our dynamic Design Intern, bringing her unique talents and fresh viewpoint to Truly Creative! Annika is a recent graduate from Sonoma State University and College of Marin. She has a degree in Business Marketing and a certificate in Multimedia Studies, Graphic Design. To learn more about her journey and experience, we asked Annika a few questions… 🅠 Why did you choose Truly Creative for your internship and how do you like the experience so far? I chose Truly Creative for my internship because I have always been such an involved consumer; always noticing new packaging on the shelves and appreciating how businesses are constantly coming up with new strategies to increase sales. I am particularly enjoying package design and branding because it combines my two passions; marketing and graphic design, and I have learned more about how It really takes both, to get to the final product. 🅠 What surprised you about our studio and the work we do? Everyone in the office is so wonderful and has been so helpful in guiding me through every assignment. I was surprised by how much goes into package design and how many steps there are to get to the final product. Everyone here is so thorough and completes every job with so much attention to detail and care. 🅠 What’s been the highlight of your internship so far? The highlight of working here has been just how welcoming and helpful everyone has been. I have loved every aspect of the internship from detailed Photoshop editing, to updating the website, and setting up photo shoots. 🅠 What are 3 things that might surprise people about you? I was a vegetarian for 8 years starting at age 7. I collect rare plants and own over 30 plant varieties. I donate white blood cells to science. 🅠 What do you like to do outside of work? When I’m not working I enjoy cooking, spending time outdoors with family and friends, and taking care of my many houseplants.
