IN CLASS ASSIGNMENTS

Project: Pick a brand and visually capture their brand identity through emoticons.

My Work: I selected Target and created three emoticons- a target bag, popcorn, and Spot, the Target dog.

EMOTICON BAD AD CAMPAIGNProject: Select an unsuccessful advertising campaign and develop a new designs and messaging to make it better.

My Work: I chose “The Perfect “Body”” campaign ran by Victoria’s Secret to promote their new bra line that has the perfect �t, perfect comfort, and perfect softness. I chose this campaign because it advertises that women who are extremely thin and it sets unhealthy and unrealistic standards of the “perfect body”. In my ad revamp, I wanted the focus of the advertisements to be on how the perfect bra �t makes any woman feel like an angel, regardless of their size or shape. I changed the slogan from “The Perfect Body” to “Your Perfect Body” and the women wearing the bras are of all di�erent demographics.

The client provided feedback on my initial poster (shown on the left), which inspired my �nal poster design (on the right). The �rst version of the calendar had a lot of unnecessary repetition and was very busy. I changed it to include pictures of the community as well as removed some of the clutter from the design.

EVENT PROMOTION

Client: Brookings Convention & Visitors Bureau

Project: Create a campaign to help raise awareness for Downtown at Sundown, a Brookings summer concert series.

The Group’s Work: Our group came up with ways to promote the event and encourage community involvement through targeting di�erent demographics. We encouraged businesses to stay open later and have special deals on the night of the event to bring in more revenue for them and raise attendance at the event. We also wanted to bring in the SDSU student population by hosting an end of the year preview while the majority of the student body is still on campus, providing the students with insight into the event as well as familiarizing them with the Brookings community. Other marketing e�orts would include theme nights and special discounts.
