When I sat down to create this ad campaign, I took many of my favorite images from the past year and began to design. I kept the word "Desire" and the tagline "Desire the Extraordinary" the same as well as my contact information. I simply changed the font colors (when appropriate) for each ad according to the colors in the image. I'd love to hear your favorite of these 3. Enjoy!
MARCH 2006




I have to go with number three!
It's got "Desire."

Joe,
I love the composition and use of lines in number one and three, but for some reason, I find myself looking the most at number two. I personally think that any of the three would work well. Number one gives the most grandious (sp?) impression which works well with extraordinary, but they all have a unique feel. Great work and I love the tag-line.

#1 & #3 are the best.

You rock.

HOLY COW! First design takes the cake! WOW! Seriously, I can't imagine the type of response you'd receive with the first image! #2 and #3 kick booty in the photo department, but the first one is something that people have never seen before. The colors really make it all work, its unique!! Go for the gusto!

I like number one the best, but more than anything, I love the branding concept. All the images are great, but the repetition of the theme is what makes it a winner. I want to do something like it, but I'm debating on an ovrall theme, whether to go with elegant and sophisticated or to go more contemporary and cool.

#3 is my favorite. Strong sense of emotion and drama. Your design work and eye is very appealing. Nice work. These would make great post card mailings as well.

I vote for #1. The colors are outstanding!
I also love the font for the word Desire.

Hard to choose but I'd say #1 for WOW factor if you were looking to catch peoples' eye/attention at first glance as an ad campaign. #2 for the best representation of 'desire' from a couple's perspective and #3 is the thinking person's choice....I see 'desire' in her expression and that really comes through the more I look at your image.
Love the name of your blog...too cool. Looking forward to shooting with you on Wed!
Cheers!

I would have to say #3 is the winner. I love the black and white and silhouettes. The image just speaks for itself - Desire!!!
Just my 2 cents

I LOVE #1, the colors are amazing, and it feels like one of those dreamy vacation brochures, which definately brings about desire for me!
