Ipod

I have always had a fascination with the Ipod ads. I think they are very clever because they are so simple but they also get the point across very well. They always make me want to dance around with my Ipod as well haha.

New Book Cover

This is a book cover that I designed for our last project in Design/Media. I took a picture of the castle at Universal Studios in Florida last summer and I put it in Photoshop and placed a new sky behind it.  I also did a few tutorials on how to make fire and smoke to make the castle look like it was burning. Any thoughts on it?

The Hobbit

Who's excited for the Hobbit!? I will be working at the Beverly for the midnight! Stop by and say hi!

Stimulus Tuesday

As you all have probably noticed by now I talk a lot about my job at the theater. Seeing as I have a blog for a Graphic Design class I couldn't help but talk about some bad designs as well as good ones. This ad from my theater is a bad one.

I think this could look a lot better if a few things were changed. For example the background should just be green, the money signs look a little silly and distracting. As for the yellow "pow" symbols I think the poster could do without it. All in all I think that it just needs to be redesigned completely.

McDonalds

 

I find this ad very amusing because of the fact that it is only November and it is a Christmas tree of fries. McDonald's ads have always caught my eye because they are almost always something silly like this, well not always.

Gossip Girl

 

I found these ads because I watch Gossip Girl and I hadn't ever really seen any ads for it so I thought I'd look some up. I never realized how provocative the ads for this show are. I know that TV companies are trying to appeal to different generations but I know a lot of teenagers that watch this show. I think things are getting more risque as the years go on.

Who's ready for summer already??

 

This is just a fast post because I can't think of anything else to do for it. So, who's ready for summer??
