Seeking Your Opinion About a element14 Image

I don't really like any of the pictures that much but 4 is the nearest.

The first 2 are classic bland corporate stock images with "engineers" who are too young and obviously not really working.

3 is a bit weird, and the scope is ancient.

4 has a load of gear and its nice to see some old stuff but there isn't any new stuff. I like the words better.

It isn't a good picture angle and its not obvious that they are working on the same thing.

How about more of a collage showing different people in different settings collaborating somehow - because that's really what E14 is about and how it works.

Then you can avoid deciding if the girl or the boy gets to be in the hot seat (pic1) , or if one of the characters looks a bit odd (pic3) or some of the gear is a bit 1980s (pic4).

The first two captions could be for a bank or law firm with the change of one word - no 4 makes a much better attempt to hit the E14 spot.

I voted #1 and I strongly dislike #2 as it gave me a feeling of two guys "mansplaining" electronics to the clueless blonde in between them. Note that I know that's not your intent, it's just my own reaction to the image.

Hehe :) - I interpreted that one completely opposite. The human brain is an odd vehicle.

If to pick among the 4 pictures provided, I root for picture 1 as I believe it gives the best representation of what element14 is. Though the writings from picture 2 could also be bought in for additional context

that's a good one - especially considering the complication level of some modules (requiring level after level of opaque software frameworks to properly operate)...

EDIT - the first generated one (it seems my answer was not placed in the place I thought it will land)

Interesting how they are getting that waveform off the paper printout of the car.

We don't do much Zoom (or perhaps I just don't get the invites...) but could do something like a webinar session demonstrating an identifiable component on a LCD screen in the background, with the actual component  being worked on in the foreground as part of a prototype design, with instrumentation, tools, 3D printed parts, (cats), in the image.

A bit of a modern take on the 2D pencil concept sketch transitioning to a full colour 3D reality model. 

You could then annotate around the outside with reinforcing text like, learning, road tests, challenges, collaboration... etc.

This could transition nicely into a video promo as well, with the flow from concept to completed projects.

I don't like any of them as they picture college or a corporate image, and sadly this is not what we are about. Our desk, are never clean and tidy and they are dressed way too nice (hell right now I have a T-Shirt with a cotton unpressed long sleeve shirt (slept in both and no bottoms) this is my normal cave attire. Show some real people.  

Not sure the title quite matches the result though ?
