The Experiences of Temple Advertising Students
Since last summer, I have been interning at Philadelphia Gas Works two blocks from Temple’s campus. Towards the beginning, I made posters & conducted surveys for employees dealing with security in the office. While my main focus is in Advertising, I am minoring in IS & T. Therefore, during Fall semester…
I hope you guys haven’t been living under a rock and know what’s been creating a buzz since late last year. Facebook Timeline. I remember back in November/December I saw an option to change my profile to Timeline. I remember I checked it out, I wasn’t to fond of it…
As a Media Planner/Buyer intern I have become very very familiar with the software STRATA. Strata Marketing, Inc. is the leader in software for the media industry. There are many different programs that run on STRATA but for my internship I focus mainly on two programs, VIEW and SBMS Net. …
My name is Lindsay Smith, and I was lucky enough to score an internship with Harmelin Media, a great media buying and planning agency just outside of the city. This experience has taught me so much about working in the real world, dealing with different people, and working to solve…

This weekend I have the incredible opportunity to attend the AIPAD (The Association of International Art Dealers) Photo show in New York City. The show was held at the Park Ave. Armory and panel discussions were held throughout the day on Saturday. One of the panels I attended was “A…
It has been nearly 10 weeks since I started my internship at Anthropolgie in Rittenhouse Square and time has been flying by. One of the coolest things at Anthropologie is that everything is designed and created in-house. As an intern to the Visual Display Coordinator, hours upon hours of this…
To be honest, I am only intrigued by one of Alberto’s series of works. But hey, to each his own, right? I’ve seen this done plenty of times, but these are just stunning. It’s amazing how something so simple can be so intriguing. Ink and water is all you need. Well that,…
This week, I took a look at the April 2012 issue of Detail Magazine. In this magazine I found an advertisement that I’ve seen many times before. I was thinking about whether or not I should talk about this advertisement but I am in a very simple advertisement kind…
