The Experiences of Temple Advertising Students
Last friday was opening day for the Phillies, and luckily for me I got to work a promotions event for WOGL. I was super excited because I had never actually done any promo events yet. I usually would just make phone calls and help with the radio station’s prize give…
Alright, I didn’t download and post all of the images associated with Jeremy Pettis’ feat. There are just way too many so below is only a taste. Go see the full set here. Anyways, the story behind this is simple. Typographer Jeremy Pettis created a typeface around each animal he…
My friend and design consultant, Justin Morris, was recently indicted into lettercult. Now this isn’t the Pulitzer prize, but in the design world it is pretty rad to have your work posted on here. Justin is a Tyler School of Art senior design student. He works at Impact Magazine in…
I discovered this from the most excellent Ad Teachings– definitely a must follow for anyone on Tumblr. SAS came up with an innovative way to get people to enter into their contest and provide free advertising. I love how they utilized Facebook’s formatting to their advantage (probably the same reason…
Each month, 20nine, offers up a cartoon or photo and asks for people to finish the story Winners chosen monthly! WHAT’S YOUR 01LINER? Current contest:

Basically if you couldn’t see it already, Oliver has deconstructed architecture that he has shot, yet it almost goes unnoticed by the eye…
Some say that photography is the most complicated art to pursue. While there a lot of problems with that phrase and a lot artists that would love to combat, this is primarily true. It’s hard to be original with a photograph, and its especially hard to find new subject matter…
In January I started an internship at CBS Radio’s 98.1 WOGL. This radio station reaches an older demographic (25-54) and plays the gratest hits of the 60s, 70s, and 80s. One might ask… Ashley, why do you think you would fit in at a radio station that does not even…
This print ad for Axe body spray was brought to my attention today, and I thought it might be time to comment on Axe’s advertising which is– surprisingly, clever. Of all the body sprays, deoderants, and male cleansing products, Axe undoubtedly holds a place in the market as one of…
Before I dig into these ads with my thoughts, I want to say that I fully support this cause. Philadelphia is notorious for being very unfriendly to it’s large bike population. We completely lack bike lanes which are crucial to safety, and we suffer from pothole-itis because of Penndot’s work…
