The Experiences of Temple Advertising Students
It has been about three months since I have started interning, which is so hard to believe! I cannot get over how fast the semester has been flying by. I am delighted to say that I have been enjoying my position as a Marketing/PR intern in the Dean’s Suite at…
I just came across this design/branding project early this morning. I have to say it is one of the most inspiring and creative ideas that I have seen lately. The point is to increase awareness for Rock Hill, South Carolina. “Social was called in to create custom “tender” for use…
The Webbys is an award show celebrating excellence on the Internet. And since the medium is virutally endless, they’ve broken it down into several categories: Websites, Online film & video, Interactive Advertising, and Mobile / Apps.

[ Submitted by Dani Masi, Advertising Copywriting Student :: tub49931@temple.edu ] What better way to spend a rainy Friday afternoon then visiting Philadelphia ad agencies? Friday was the annual Philly Ad Club Agency Crawl. 50 students from universities and colleges across the Philadelphia region gathered to “crawl” from ad agency…
Pixar recently uploaded this video to their YouTube channel in promotion of Cars 2. This is their second viral video, after last years (much better) Lots-o’-Huggin Bear spot for Toy Story 3. What do you think? Is this too… weird for a kid’s movie? I believe Cars 2 is spy-oriented,…

The agency I intern for, Quaker City Mercantile, attends various events where they showcase our products. On Sunday, March 13th I was lucky enough to work at the event entitled Brewer’s Plate at The University of Penn’s Museum of Anthropology. The event, which…
People have been asking me lately, why are you an advertising major, interning at a radio station, and going to law school in fall? And my favorite question is, why aren’t you pre-law? Well first off there is no such thing as pre-law so that is why I am not…
A part of the promotions coordinator/interns job is to call the prize winners from our KYW database. See, on the KYW website you can register to win monthly prizes. The prizes are various, from things such as gift certificates to restaurants, spas, etc to tickets to concerts, plays, operas, and…
