Wine Label Designs

[annarti.livejournal.com]

The product of the last, what, week and a half? Half a dozen wine labels, all done to no brief whatsoever but for the fact they're wine labels, with the intention of these getting me a freelancing gig at a design studio that primarily does wine labels. My aim was to have a big variety, so there's the fun and easy and high-class swanky stuff, traditional and modern, illustration and Illustrator. Getting these ones printed out to take around to the said design studio in the next week or so. CROSS FINGERS. If nothing else, I've learnt a lot about Illustrator doing this. I won't say I love it yet, but I will make it my bitch, just you watch.

Fizzy Pop and Sundowner were the most fun to work on. Probably Soulmate is my favourite, just because I don't think I've ever seen anything like that done before. I mean, I can't really see any technical reason why it COULDN'T be done, but idk it just feels really obvious to me and why hasn't anyone done that before? We'll see :D

Its nice to see them set out like this, like it helps understand the little tricks and stuff on there with the layout all you know.. portfolio like

I WISH I COULD SAY MORE but I just like them a lot :3

That's the intention :D Rather than words (which NOBODY reads on a design portfolio anyway) the different bits are shown in pictures! Also it's prettier.

Thank you my Sallie <3!

I like your label designs, how do I get in contact with you? Do you have a website or email address?

Nice designs, How can I contact you? I need some label designs.

The Soul mate is good, but I can see technical issues when running down the bottling line. One of the main problems would be the lining up of the ends, when the label wraps around the bottle, even though the label is straight the bottle may not be a perfect cylinder, hence it may end up out of alignment and for the label setup onto the bottle we would need to ensure that is goes on dead straight. Maybe if the gap was slightly wider then you wouldn't notice if the two ends did not liner up 100%.
