$60 paypal contest to design a can for one drink (24 hour contest)

i decided to add highlights to that last revision. sorry so many revisions >.<

 

last edit for now.

 

@everybody: My client is thinking and evaluating all the submitted designs and I will let you know as soon as I have more news!

 

Update coming soon! Thanks for your patience!!

 

Hi guys, so my client has narrowed the designs down to two choices. A totally white can (see here) and the duo-toned can design created by "JSDesign", (see here). I will work with "JSDesign" on his due-toned can design and you can work on the white can design!

Here is what my client asked in regards to the white can:

1. Please make the white can with some asian elements and add this tagline "Ancient Hangover Secret". For some ideas on the asian elements, see here and here.
2. Make the design more exciting somehow but make sure it stays on the white can.
3. Make the logo and text bigger.

"JSDesign", here is what my client asked to do in regards to your duo-tone can design:

1. Please make the logo bigger and make it stand out more, right now my client says the logo kind of gets lost within the white circle, maybe make the circle border smaller and make it some other color so that it won't take anything away from the logo!
2. Please make the name bigger as well!
3. Please make a few versions of the current design with some added Asian elements - I'm thinking maybe replace the white circle with a circle made from bamboo branches, or leafs, etc. You don't have to necessarily do this idea and I'm just throwing ideas out there. Just make sure to add some Asian elements somewhere, somehow and make it look nice and exciting!
4. Please do one version of the can where all the green color outside of the white circle is removed (the one on the white part of the can).
5. Please do one version of the can design where the logo is bigger and is divided right in the middle of the duo-tone, and the upper part of the logo is different from the lower part, in color.
6. Please add this tagline to the can: "Ancient Hangover Secret"

Thanks and please do this ASAP guys because my client would like to decide on a winner in the next day or so!!

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thanks.

 

Apologies for them being on lables instead of on the can, just makes it much easier to edit.

 

@JSDesign: Here are the comments from my client:

I think the asian elements are too distracting where they are now. Just take them out unless you can think of a better place to put them!

Direction for the all white can design:

The size is too big for the can, and this applies to all can designs! Please use this template for dimensions: http://www.sendspace.com/file/20txz2

So we need an all white one with hints of asian in it. If he does not like them we can just take them out. Do not let the asian elements interfere with the the logo at all though. Take the green circle out from around the logo. We need the contrast of the the logo and the white. Maybe hints of green around the edges will work good though.

Let's fine tune this one first and then move on to the duo tone design!

Also, see if this will work to put in the layout for some asian flair, it's not perfect but will work for the time being: http://www.flickr.com/photos/43522653@N08/5982632490/

And at last but not least, the 100% natural and the tag line look crowed together in the layout on both so please make some more distance between them!

Looking forward to your revisions and please do them ASAP!

Thanks!

 

Here is the white can redesign, tried to keep it as simple as possible:



I'm going off on holiday to France first thing in the morning (GMT) so the amount of PS work I'll be able to do will be limited for the next couple of weeks, just so you're aware.

 

@JSDesign, OK, let me show it to my client and hopefully there will not be many revisions!

 

@JSDesign: OK, here is what my client told me:

This design look much better! The 100% natural is too big though - with all the copy it will need to be much smaller! The asian accents are not distracting, but the does not make me think asian...

Also get rid of hangover defense for now. Just Ancient Hangover secret.

Thanks and looking forward to your revisions!

 

Hopefully this is better:
