    eliminate bottom line or soften the intersection

    Posted on Nov 19, 2009 at 7:51 AM

    I agree with Sean about maybe dropping the bottom of the hat. Another possibility would be a small white break in the line each place it intersects the utensils.

    I might try a cleaner font

    Posted on Nov 18, 2009 at 4:09 PM

    Overall very nice. I might consider using a very clean, simple, light font like avenir light or something like that which would echo the clean lines of the astronaut vector art. I think you get a kidsy feel just from the artwork.

    Is there a particular reason for it to be an imaginary company? Just building up your portfolio? If so, I would suggest doing work for real companies even if it is pro bono. It is much tougher and much more educational to do work with and for real clients.

      I am doing for real companies, just doing some imaginary stuff so I dont get rusty, I am training myself. Thank you for your comment!

      Although, why did you rank the purpose as 1? I think the idea was passed out very well.

      About the suggestion on the font, I will be trying it, thank you.

      The one on purpose was just because it did not really have a purpose. As a fictional job there is no demographic, no client to approve, no set of objectives. It wasn't a negative, just a reflection of it being a hypothetical job.

    Ads a bit smaller

    I think the ad column fights with and overwhelms your own content copy. Could that column be a little smaller? Either than or ramp up the strength of your left column subtitles a little.

    lighten up the C a bit

    Posted on Nov 13, 2009 at 11:37 PM

    I think that 5 is the strongest. The first two feel clumsy to me with the heavy C and the organic shape on top. I think I might try to bring the shape of the C around to the top right a bit more to strengthen it's recognizability. Overall I think I would try to thin and lighten some of the strokes.

    remove shadow or make it fit lighting of cup

    Posted on Nov 13, 2009 at 11:33 PM

    Overall I like this piece. Adding the color definitely improves it. The steam forming the heart is a nice touch. My main suggestion would be that the lighting on the cup is from the left, yet the shadow is as if the lighting is from the top. I would be tempted to remove the shadow altogether as well or else make it stylized with a hard edge or harder edge like all the other components. You might try dropping the outline on the type and bumping up the brown darkness to get the type contrast you need. Overall looks good

    Simplify

    I think it is too busy. I know you are going for a glitzy look, but it feels sort of clip art like.There isn't a lot of contrast esp. with the version where the star and the world glamour are filled with blue. I think you are relying too much on outlines of type and elements to separate them. I would experiment with relying more on color or vlaue contrast to get the separation you need.
