Working on the concept of a poster for a coffee company.

This one is probably better :) At least the sequence shows that she is drinking it and feeling happy about it :)

Not bad, but a little...hard edged?
I don't know if this would actually work once it's done, but it might be worth trying. Try fading and blending the edge of each shot into each other so it doesn't feel so 1.2.3.4.

The "come hither" feel of the second series is definitely better.

This one looks much better... she's drinking coffee, and she's happy in the last spot

I like it. Good work!

I hope you're not doing this commercially though as that logo is an absolute, outright ripoff of the Starbuck's logo.

That's what I was thinking.

I like the fact that in the first series she is not looking at the camera. I would, however, prefer different poses like the second series.

I liike the second series much better. In that regard, though, I'd rather see the last two pictures reversed. It just seems to flow better in my mind that the first reaction after a sip of delicious coffee would be 'Ahhhhhhh'. Then, she would hoist her cup in a salute/toast.

But what do I know? I just guzzle the stuff and rarely get my face out of the mug once I start.

I agree with Belmondo. Second series is best, but reverse the last two shots.

As a second opinion, I like the second series as is. Tip of the cup and a little laugh. Fits perfectly.

I'm with Jim ... the second example is better, and I like it as is. While I'm following the leader, I too noticed the logo plagarism.

Second series with belmondo's suggestion.
