Matt Preston - Fair Trade update

I've made this design more aesthetically contrasting, really exposing the well-known coffee shop environment, including the table and packet of sugar - and the main text placed onto the sugar.
This has allowed for greater space at the top.

I think my idea is pretty much settled now - anything anyone else would add?

Thanks!

I like the idea of the text on a sugar pack. It looks very well and professional. I don't think there is anything you need to improve. Well done.

Great Poster Matt =)

One thing....why do you have the brown box on the sugarbag?

Great poster matt, the background and the packed of sugar helps alot gives it a good efftect, not sure any improvvements, sorry :)

your placement of text on this poster is so much better than previous ones, smart idea putting it on the sugar, works well! I agree with Ingrid though, what is that square of greyish-brown on the sugar pack behind the text? May look better without it perhaps? ^-^

great poster Matt
only thing I can criticize is that there appears to be a few jaggies. Most noticable around the boy, but also along the edge of Sugar packet. Once blown up to large size, these may become more noticeable.

Perhaps duplicate the image of the boy, add a Gaussian blur to back image and soften the edges on top layer.

looks awesome with the wooden table background and nice idea to put the text on the sugar pack. i think it's pretty much done & i agree with morgan, the only improvements i think you need to make are the cutting out of the sugar pack, the boy and around the top bit of the cup by the sugar. also would probably look better without the greyish box on the sugar pack. i'm also not sure what the other figure in the coffee by the boys face is?

I don't think there's much you need to change on it really, aside from what everyone else has already said. Do you need the text next to the fairtrade logo though? I think it would be okay with just the logo. Good work though Matt! :)

well done matt

same as everyone else really, the grey box on the coffee pack I dont think you need and I agree with amy I dont know if you need the type the logo is enough.

sorted!!

Looks lots better...could you try the type on the sugar a bit smaller...maybe loks a little too domineering. Other than that i really like it!
