This could be a really cool shot. I'd go with a much tighter crop for it, though, to emphasize the logo. It will be small and not so super compared to the environment (esp. the big white screen or whatever above his head).

While this is a good shot with potential, I don't think it's fair to call your setup "strobist". It should be called rich-snobist

IMHO the background adds nothing. Also, I think a stronger pose would be with him looking away instead of down at the camera. FWIW.

I thought the shadow on his foot look kinda un-natural. I can't wait to see the final product.
