Seeking revenge for what my students had to go through,

they allowed me 20 m. to setup and capture a product shot.
I did not even have time to clean the bottle or anything else.

Pretty darn good for only having 20 minutes to set up! Years of experience pay off here, eh? If you had had more time, what would you have changed? Might you have used a white card somewhere near the top of the bottle so that the top left of the black cap doesn't get lost? Or was that a deliberate choice?

Thanks Nicole!

I was not there yet as I was trying to minimise — most unsuc-
cessfully — the negative effects of the irregular glass thickness.

Another prototype of bottle for their distillate. Nothing was right

with the bottle: irregular walls, bottom and top, poor cap sealing,
a prototype really. Nevertheless, they are still at the presentation
of their product and there are too many chiefs and not enough…

I was an easy prey for my students' revenge. 

— If you had had more time, what would you have changed?

Brain storming…

• chose any other bottle, this one is skewed
• remove the plastic around the cap
• control the reflections on set… blind the window
• frame loosely
• clear the BG
• setup a better tabletop

Once the ingredients are in place, yes, it is time to built an image.

Sure… it is the product!

You mean…

No, this very bottle contains a smoked something they call whiskey…
not my pleasure at all! I love whiskeys but not these.

I should have known. You're a Canadian...
