Advertisements



Advertisements 





For another project in Aice Media, we had to create advertisements for an office utensil for Office Depot. These pictures had to be taken and then edited in a manner that appealed to the target audience. In my special case we received a folder by "See Jane Work". This brand is targeted for women from all ages to showcase the integration of the working woman. What we decided to showcase was that just as a woman's necessity is her purse, the folder by "See Jane Work" is also an essential. 







Another item we had to advertise was a sharpie. For this school supply I took a more childish route. I decided to showcase how with a sharpie you could express yourself, which is showcased through the different facial expressions of the fingers. The center of the picture really is the sharpie. 










Now I will just add a few more of the advertisements I created and then from there just determine which ones would be most appropriate for the adds on the magazine.

Layout and Font


Pretty Meets the Eye?


Due to the fact that the majority of my two page spread is based on interviews and actual conversations with people, I have decided to spend much of my time researching what it is that attracts teenagers to pic up a magazine and actually read it. Due to the technology evolution it is rare for teenagers to read much less tangible books/magazines. Forms of print have know become digitized changing the way teenagers consume print. For this reason I have decided to debate my magazine cover.  

This is one of the pictures I felt would be an option for my magazine cover. Because of the position she is found, the lighting, the bright color and the fact she is a teenager I felt this would entice its target audience more than other pictures. 





This is the other picture I was thinking of using for my cover page. Although I think the sense of union and teamwork, this picture would not suite the cover as not only is the picture blurred but rather it would mostly exclude the male target audience which would be a negative as the magazine is targeted towards gender neutral teenagers.
