CONGRATULATIONS: __________________________!
You have been selected by the __________________ Company to develop a Magazine Ad for their latest product:______________.
Your copy is due at the printer's in 5 days!
You will have 1 day to create a slogan or a catch phrase that will appeal to a particular emotion.
You will have 3 days to complete your design elements: font, color, and visual images.
Your final day can be used to critique your layout and then glue the elements into place.
Follow these steps to complete your project. Steps 1 & 2 will be most easily done with small group brainstorming.
1. Decide what kind of emotional appeal would best fit this product.
2. Create a catchy slogan or catch-phrase. This will become the identity of the product.
3. Decide what visual images you will use in your ad. These can be drawn, computer generated or cut out from a magazine and altered.
4. Select a lettering font that "fits" the image of you product. Important information like the product name and the slogan should be sized in a 30-40 font. Other information can be sized at a 16-20 font.
5. Select colors and patterns for the background that related to the emtional content or information in your ad. The background should be a contrasting or complementary color to the product or images.
