Bacardi Añejo: Upside Down Friends
It is an aged rum. The copy in Spanish reads: Qué rico es tomarse el tiempo. It has a double meaning:
1. It is great to pass time relaxed enjoying yourself.
2. It is nice to take the time (an aged rum).

the art director did.
Intelligent ads are the need of the hour.
I would have *almost* bought this as a non-Photoshop ad, had the reflections not been off. And that's a pity, because it's those little details that can really make or break an ad. Had they spent a little more time on the tabletop (specifically under the men's legs) and given them the same attention as matching the pattern in the woman's skirt, it really would have sailed. Right now, it's close, but not quite.
The larger question (and I hate asking this so much) is anyone paying attention to the publication gutter when designing these works of art? I'm guessing not, because a good chunk of the central image is gonna disappear and no one seems to have noticed.
Love the Idea, Shame about the bad photoshop around the hair... Apart from that. Well Done!
