A first attempt at nailing down the concept for an upcoming project. More about this later..
Obviously there's this owl sitting down watching, while listening to some tunes. The pun is trying to nail the concept in the form of a vintage microphone as well. So we have the ingredients we need to enjoy & broadcast some music.
I see the owl watching and listening on giant headphones, but I don't really see the microphone unless I read your description. My first thought was it was for a headphone company named Owl or something related to owls.
Don't worry brad, it's the very first concept drawing of the idea I had in mind. Actually, the microphone part doesn't even play an important role here, but just wanted to make clear that music does!
I think this works quite well, balancing all those ideas is a tough job, the microphone concept is there in a suitably subtle way, if you pushed it any further you might compromise the key elements. I'm sure you could reinforce it with other visual assets.
Love this mate. Really smart - I await the results of your development but I'm not yet convinced the microphone needs to be any more pronounced, more of a nice little surprise/bonus. Sweet stuff man, you're on a roll.
Looks cool Gert! Sure you have some other versions of this going, Just a suggestion - make the earphones more obvious?..somehow with all the lines the earphones form part of the image, not really obvious Otherwise cool concept and style!
