The Experiences of Temple Advertising Students
My name is Patrick and I am currently a senior in Temple’s Advertising program, with a concentration in Art Direction. Last summer, I worked at Macy’s Merchandising Group in New York City as a Product Development intern for their private label brands. This semester, I was afforded the opportunity to…
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…

Not long ago, two women dominated the female market, reaching and influencing their target in all aspects possible – TV, print, radio, you name it. Martha Stewart and Oprah Winfrey’s reign over the communications industry seemed both everlasting and impervious. But, as with anything in our industry, all good things come…
I discovered Brooke Shaden on the evening news in my hometown of Lancaster, PA. Why did they feature her? Because she is a Lancaster native making it big time in the Los Angeles. That rarely happens, besides the taylor kinney/lady gaga rumors Oh, and she is a Temple Alum too!…
Just take a look at this print ad… At first glance, I thought it was a cellphone too, but taking a second glance, its something more than that. Nissan’s “CellTruck” print ad was created by TBWA Argentina. Brilliant, isn’t it? The art direction of this concept was executed very well!…
I came across an article on AdWeek called “Data Points: The Kids are Online.” The article basically reveals how younger children today such as 7 years old are already using social media sites like Facebook. I started using Facebook when I was 17 (however I am no longer a Facebook…
Reality TV shows often further their profits by creating merchandise such as dolls and figurines, accessories like backpacks and lunch boxes, and other branded products. American Idol, however, will take that to the next step by designing a clothing line inspired by the hit reality show. The difference in this…
This week I decided to take a look at Women’s Health magazine. I don’t particularly look at Women’s Health but I decided since I looked through Men’s Health, I would do the same for all the women out there. In the current issue of Women’s Health (April 2012 issue), you…
