Photo of the original advertisement:

I used three pictures to recreate this advertisement:

1. My photo of saxophonist Ben Golder-Novick from Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox concert in Toronto
https://r-lerman.ca/portfolio/pmj-2016/

2. My photo from the DDT concert in Toronto (I used selected area with smoke only)

3. Hennessy Cognac bottle (my still-life photo)
[135mm lens to reduce distortion, ISO 100, f/11, Speed: 1/100]

This photo (from phone) illustrates how I shoot the bottle:
(I used a photo snoot to highlight the label of the bottle)

This screen-shot illustrates how I merged three photos in Photoshop:

I used “Bodoni Seventy Two Book” font (see http://www.dafont.com/forum/read/44326/hennessy-font-help)

Recreated photo:
(This is a student experimental work. It is NOT a real advertisement. For education use only!)

Version 1

Version 2

Personally I like “Version 2” more. I also think that my recreated photos are better then original one 🙂
