Some of my advertising campaigns...

Since beginning this 1st Semester, I have had my hands full and my creative mind in over-drive, attempting to create campaigns worthy of making it to a magazine publication. As you review the print advertisements below, you may begin to wonder why I chose to focus on these particular products/services, and that's because these were assigned to us all with the perameters of each assignment built-in before we even began drawing our concepts. So, after dozens of revisions with my professors, I have come up with the advertisements you see below.

On a personal note, I'll just say that it's all been a very cool experience thus far. It's crazy, because what starts off as just a sketch and a raw concept, can turn into memorable print advertisements. I'm a long way from that level, but I think I've made some good strides over the last few months. What I find is the most difficult part of this process is coming up with something that is "simple, yet concise". You would think that a few words and an image could be easily conjured, but I've found out that it's much harder than I first imagined.
