These are bad. I can barely read the copy on this one.
Done, a lot, and in my opinion not done that well. The HDR style looks clumsy, the typography doesn't work and the words don't follow the same dynamic for me.
I'm a Villa fan so I guess target audience, these have gone down well with the fans so job done. I'm also an art director and I like these. Chris Herd is a nutter, this is very much him in play so I get it. Beware Of The Lions- the campaign is obviously referencing lions (as per Villas rampant lion emblem) fearless, agile, cunning etc etc. Ok I'm biased being a fan but these arent difficult to work out..... Al Woods (above) clearly hasnt a clue what hdr is because these shots arent... there would be no shadow areas, this is great photography.
