So my other brand was Durex. I went for it because it's another opportunity to be cheeky, funny and hopefully a little clever too.
This shoot followed the vodka shoot (so unless I mention something new, assume it's the same equipment/settings as Smirnoff's).
The tripod had to be changed again, because this time the camera would have to be facing down. It was the first I used a boom tripod, so that was interesting.
So it started with a constant light soft box, but then I changed it onto flash and 2 MUCH bigger soft boxes.
I selected this image because it's not washed out like some others, doesn't have too many creases on the black fabric underneath to the point it's distracting, the packaging doesn't reflect too much light (you can still see what it is and it preserved the colours okay), neither it is too dark.
Lightroom: Crop + Straightening; Brightness: +3; Contrast: +17
I added some text again on Photoshop.
Also, I used the dodge and burn tools over the condoms to try and even the colours a bit - unfortunately I had to use two different brands of condoms on the shoot, Durex and Boots, and they were quite different, both in colour and in form (Boots' is more photogenic lol). But hopefully it's not too noticeable.
I'm pleased with the outcome once again.
