The making of Thirst-aid

Here's a few images that show what went into the making of the thirst aid ad. The thirst aid bottle was modeled and rendered using 3d studio max. I then used the rendered scene in Photoshop where I adjusted the levels until I felt the bottle seemed to be more realistically filled with a sport drink. I then made some custom brushes to create a splash/flamelike effect and finally added type.
