Challenge: Advertisement III (Basic Editing)
Camera: Canon EOS-400D Rebel XTi
Lens: Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6
Location: Bedroom at home
Date: Feb 5, 2008
Aperture: F5.6
ISO: 1600
Shutter: 1/50Sec.
Galleries: Advertisement, Food and Drink
Date Uploaded: Feb 5, 2008

 Shot with my standard 18-55 lens and a diffused flash. Once I got the composition I liked I experimented with quite a few exposure levels to get the right 'homeliness' in the textures of the bedclothes. The cuffs came as a late addition and I'm hoping that you see them in the second pass of the eye.

I'm really pleased with the way the positioning of the can implies a turned head, and how what little you can see of the logo is enough. Now that's a strong brand!

Eh, the product should have been closer to the bed. Pretty boring otherwise

The way you make the diet coke barely visible makes your photo weak

nice

Great idea, but I wish the product was more apparent.

The details are hilarious but would be lost on the impatient viewer. I can't really tell what you're selling either but it made me laugh.

Cute concept, but too hard to identify the can. I looked at the photo for almost 5 seconds before I saw it. Also the sheets and pillow case seem a little blown out.

hmm bed doesn't look very ruffled, not much action eh? (handcuffs aside)

what is the product?? that little can of diet coke over there under the sheets??

i really like the values and lighting.

What's being advertised here? I can't read the label on this...

Ha! Funny. Took me a bit to even see the can in the photo though. As an advertisement, it really needs to be immediately noticable. The composition is nice, if a little uninteresting. The lighting is ok, though the bottom sheets look pretty blown out.

Overall flavor misses your mark. More a picture of a pretty bed. The can and handcuffs are almost lost.

Oh my, what did you do to that poor bottle of coke? Interesting idea, I don't think most people will understand though =)
 02/06/2008 10:09:17 AM
I can't really tell what this is suppost to be fore, Diet Coke? or whatever the can says, but you can't really tell
 02/06/2008 09:31:44 AM
i don't know exactly what your trying to advertise
 02/06/2008 09:31:28 AM
