Hey ya’ll I have not posted anything for a while so I thought I would share slash ask for a critique. Here are 2 sample of a email campaign layout. (content is kinda blank since they have not given it to me yet). But if ya’ll could tell me what layout you prefer and why. It is for a wine company called gallo (all stuff is trademarked an copywritten). this is one of their new wines.

I don’t see any diff between the two last ones…  
Looks very professionnal and smooth; really good. The only minor thing that bothers me is the glow on the bottle; maybe a shadow (dark glow rather) would make it blend in more - or on the other extreme increase the glow…

They look very nice and professional DDD. I prefer the second one, because of the cards. They complete the look.

Great job ! :thumb:

I prefer the first one, just because it has the focus on the bottle. With the cards added I think it looses this focus.

but that’s just my €0.02 🙂

I can’t see the watermark either and I’m on a standard monitor - but if it works for print…

yeah good point, they were designed with PMS in mind so colors maybe a little off on monitors. But thanks guys.

Hmm, i wonder if you couldn’t kind of bring the bottle more into focus, because it almost seems like the cards are the more important item in the image, while the bottle almost seems to be lurking there in the darkness, waiting to pounce on unsuspecting passerbys… but that’s just my opinon.

I think the bottle needs to appear Bolder, since it’s “BIG **BOLD** ZIN”…

i agree with people who like the first one. 🙂

i think that looks great! 🙂

2 and 3 need more emphasis on the product (wine bottle) so maybe you can drop the opacity on the cards, or make them a more subtle back ground image. it has to accompany the image not take it over.

Concepts are looking great though dude, once you get the rest of the content, it will really show which design will shine. 😉

cheers

I like one the most… it gives the bottle more focus, as others have said.

But they’re all really great, good work 🙂
