The second pictures colors are a bit strong, and I'd recommend trying to clean up the poeples' edges with the refine edge tool. But this all looks like commercial space travel from one company. Good uniform idea with clear concept,well done.
Nick – my comments about the type/logo are based on the pdf that you sent to me.
Logo – One last ditch effort to get you to unify this a bit more, have you considered using the same fill as I see on the big “N” for the whole word “Change”? It’s darker, which will help the logo appear to be in more contrast to the background, a good thing.
Images – The soft colors of #1 and #3 help those 2 images appear as part of a series. The high contrast of the figures in #2 are in opposition to this approach. Can you work more on those figures and soften the colors? Since they are all from different images shot quite differently, that is your next challenge… control the colors so they all appear to share that plane ride together… and match the other 2 ads in the series. Example: standing women’s leg has bright crisp shadow on left side… almost a bright red shadow. I see that all figures need some attention and wonder if they are low resolution (pixilation can cause this too). I hope that isn’t your problem.
Do you need all that empty space at the bottom of #2? Should add something (or enlarge the ottoman with magazines) to bring us “into” the picture rather than seeing this from afar?
What magazines would be sitting on that ottoman in the foreground. Yes I know I’ve said this twice before… I just can’t help myself.
Getting close to being done with this!
PS – want to add a flare to the plane’s wing in #1? A sparkle that reflects the sun?

ReplyDeleteThe images all look like commercial adds, just missing the logo and "Designing the future... for you"
