Assignment--NEW!

The above website is a 3D graphics program...you won't be able to load it to the school laptop, but you could try it out if you have a home computer. Just thought I'd throw that out there, for those of you who get bored. My brother Dirk, who teaches Industrial Technology shared it with me.

Now...for the assignment, adapted from Caffeine For The Creative Mind by Stefan Mamaw and Wendy Lee Oldfield.

So "Ad Folks" spend 24/7 creating ads for various products and services, including headlines and body copy, graphics and visuals. Photo shoots and illustrations (drawings) are created. Even the font is a choice made by a designer.

It can be a difficult task, because you are not completely familiar with the product and need to get acquainted like Mel Gibson's character in the movie "What Women Want".

But for this assignment I'll make it a little easier. The subject is YOU. YES, YOU! Who knows you better (well, sometimes your friends, but you can quiz them as well!)?

Your task is to create an ad for YOU. You are the product/service. Whichever term you wish to apply.

Create a HEADLINE Body copy the "visual" and tie it all together into an "Ad".

Be creative with the fonts. You can add effects to your photo, if that's what you wish to use for your "visual".

SELL--YoUrSeLf!

?'s just ask! df, out.
