turn a page to the future!


                                                                PR message

            When you walk on to a bus what is the first thing you see?  That little white chord trailing into the bag or the pocket of some one else. The Ipod was created by apple in two thousand one and is now one of the most recognizable products. Where ready to break into new fields beside the music industry. The Ipad is our latest product, no longer will you have to go to borders to find the newest released books because now it is only a click away.  With the ipad you wont just be getting a book but you’ll also get the internet and HD movies. Can a paper back book offer you that? So be an apple user and get what the times.

Enhance motivation
§  I would create a photo the would contrast a book and an ipad to show how the I pad offers more then a book

Enhance ability
§  I would put the apple logo at the top to draw people in since apple is one of the most recognizable company’s now it will draw the company in


Enhance opportunity
§  I would re iterate the meaning of my picture of the comparison between the book and the ipad so the audience would understand

keep others smiling :)

I was trying to come up with a mock ad to do and the first thing I came up with was breast cancer, mainly because my water bottle I was drinking from had the pink ribbon on it, regardless it gave me a good idea. My favorite thing to use on photo bucket is photo splash, so I new I was going to do an ad using that. Initially I was just going to take a picture of each one of my friends with the water bottle, but once I got into it and started playing around with my camera it turned into something completely different.





I did two pictures and decided to go with the first one. i felt like the second one had to much going on and kind of ruined it. I posted the picture up on face book and got a really good response a girl from a sorority even wanted to use the idea for a recruitment poster. All and all I was very happy with the way my project turned out.

Anti Barbie


Little girls are brought up playing with Barbie dolls. Barbie has the perfect body, the perfect boyfriend, and the perfect job
 This is unrealistic!
Anti Barbie is a campaign against the negative body images and gender norms created by the widely known company Barbie
What impact does Barbie have on young girls that spend hours and hours playing with these dolls?
For some girls Barbie is there first impression for what a woman is suppose to  look like. Therefore they grow up with this image in there head

Lets change the definition of beauty and make in realistic!

I found this picture while I was on my favorite site Stumbleunpon.com.
In general I think this ad is just awesome because it's advertising books. I'm not big on the Ipad or the Kendle because I feel like it takes away the intimacy of a book, but I think this ad does a great job of reminding us of why we loved books, because when we read them we got so caught up in them that we could become the character and escape our everyday life
R.I.P Paper Back Books!!
You'll forever be in my heart.

Taste The Rainbow!

So Skittles has a new Advertisement. This is by far the best advertising done by them in along time. This video is so simple and border line stupid that it makes it hilarious. Another great thing about this is it gets the audience involved in the commercial. They have a series of these commercials and I'm seeing people send them to there friends all over Facebook

WORST COMMERCIAL EVER!


   I don't know if my feminist class finally got to me but I stumbled upon this little clever advertisement and frankly I'm offended. I can laugh at your occasional "Go back to the kitchen" jokes or
"Bake me a pie" but this beer commercial is just tasteless. The only reason I laughed was because it was so ridiculous, are they really that desperate for new ideas that they have to use shock value to get people to buy their crappy beer? I hope the mother of what ever guy came up with this tacky beer commercial sees it so she can give him a pat on his back for lack of creativity.

Guinness beer you our officially off my list of drinks for the night
