The Experiences of Temple Advertising Students
I’m back from hiatus and I’m going to continue where I left off with Behind the Bullseye. People are much like brands in that we have our own personal reputations to uphold. Sometimes pretentiousness can be unshakable no matter how subtle. Have you ever gone somewhere and felt suddenly that…
In the couple of weeks leading up to spring break, I was given the task of repositioning Kia for a portfolio (class) assignment. We first had to write a letter selling our idea (to the CEO… professor) and then follow that up with some print executions. I think the only…
This guy Alec Brownstein is a creative genius. Check out his website HERE for some of his work. I suggest checking out the hilariously twisted spot he made for Ovaltine. It’s ingenuity like this that’ll really put you ahead of the pack.

After studying Art and Design at Oxford Brookes University, and later film and photography at Newport School of Art and Design, he…
Hello all! One of my favorite ways to get started writing, is to pick out an interesting font. Most of the time, ads won’t use standard fonts like Times New Roman or Comic Sans. You know what- let’s just go ahead and delete Comic Sans from your computer right now.…
Personally, I kind of hope this is the last Old Spice commercial in this style. Don’t get me wrong- the first appearance of the Old Spice Man was truly hilarious. I’ve quoted “I’m on a horse” mid-conversation many times. But remember how irritating those Mac vs PC commercials got?…
Whoa. What a great way to demonstrate your company’s objective!
