Ads pt. 1 and Packaging pt. 2

First up, the package designs. I moved "Language Learning Success" to the top (Used to be underneath the name of the product), made it all caps, and kearned the type a bit. Made the product name smaller, moved the letters closer together, speech bubbles a bit bigger from what they were when I first made it.

1.1: Moved the "Level 1" and "Spanish" stuff to the top. A lot of empty space in the middle I need to address still I feel.
b: Left the "Level 1" at the bottom, changed the color behind it from white to the same blue on the top.

3: Here I changed the logo a bit and changed color from blue to white background.


---------------------

And the ads! I'm not sure how this is working just yet, I might have to come up with more ideas still. The second one is the same layout, it just uses the logo from 3.

Rosetta Stone 1

I'm not really liking how the background looks so plain, I want to add some sort of texture (Maybe a globe or something since that's their current logo?). The 3D effect on the blue one looks kinda...weird to me too.

Anyways what do you guys think?

Panel Discussion

I went to last week's panel discussion and I really enjoyed myself. This is the second one I went to and I still found it very informative. I liked how all three speakers were in very different industries and gave us their insights. Dominique was really nice and talked a bit about what she does at Neopets and how whatever she didn't know, they taught her there. Theresa did some cool work for movies and showed us "Special" box sets that she made, even though sometimes they may not be chosen. Out of them all I was the most interested in what Max does and where he works (Hamagami Carroll). He showed the process of how some of the products he made went from start to finish along with how although his site isn't the fanciest, it's able to show off his works well enough to get him jobs. In addition to this, he showed how he dabbled a little into Maya and did 3D work and made a short video.

All in all it was a really enjoyable night even though it lasted pretty long, lol.

Thumbnails Project 2

Couldn't decide what I wanted to do, so I did thumbnails for two sets of programs: The Rosetta Stone series and the Adobe series. What do you guys think?
