Bacardi YCN Brief 2012 (Revamp)

So of you may have seen an earlier version of this, which didnt exactly turn out well. I decided to re-visit the idea and decided on creating a special edition Chilli Infused gift set, to sort the men from the boys when it came to drinking Bacardi.
 
This is my first attempt at packaging design, which I think has turned out well. The theme was to try and create something hot, using flames on a dark background. I also applied this to the Bacardi logo, lighting it up from the bottom. I decided to move the bat logo infront of the Bacardi name, obscuring some of it from view. It is still readable as Bacardi have a very noticable type face, Perpetua Tilting Bold.
 
I inverted the usual black writing into white to stand out on the dark background. This seemes to give an edge to the Bacardi logo, which works well with the flame hues.
 
On the back of the packaging I wrote a little about the history of Bacardi as they were celebrating their 150th anniversary. Using a larger pt size to make the key words stand out.
 
I like this idea a lot more than my original, and I hope you do to :)
 
Thanks for reading!
