The Experiences of Temple Advertising Students
Radio Shack is one of those brands that makes me wonder how it’s still around. I’ve never purchased anything from there that lasted more than two years. Before I found a better option, I was using earbuds that required a converter to work with my phone– a converter sold only…
(In high-resolution, too!) The Art Project by Google offers you the opportunity to explore art museums from NYC to London to Prague using “Street View” technology. You can zoom in to artworks of interest and expand the information panel to read more about an artwork. You are given options to…
I heart logos season two has just begun. This is the only design competition of its kind. Anyone can submit. ($10 submission fee per logo entry). You can submit as many as you’d like. And the submission period goes until August 31, 2011. After the submission period ends, the voting…
With winter in full swing, many individuals–including this author–are seeking the solace of comfort foods. It only make sense for advertisers to try to appeal to this hankering–or in my case, weakness–of cold weather commuters to try a warm bowl of soup. Today, Apple released results from a self funded…
Egypt and Tunisia keep getting mentioned both on the news and on campus. We hear names like Hosni Mubarak and Ben Ali but who are they and what have they done to piss so many people off? Get into the loop of what is potentially history in the making. PANEL…
If you love body art or have a tattoo, the Philadelphia Tattoo Arts Convention can be a chance for you to meet like-minded people. If you’re looking to get a tattoo, what better place than a convention where there will be professionals coming in from all over the world? Hey,…
If I could have the attention of all the copywriters for a moment, please. Art direction, account management, research: you can stick around if you’d like. I still love you for who you are. As my first blog post for Temple Adlib, I figured it’d only be fair if I…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ulbjaKmKG0&feature=player_embedded Volkswagen is releasing a new 30 second spot for their second generation “neue” beetle. Created by Deutsch Inc., located in New York and Los Angeles. Unfortunately they have a flash site, which isn’t very up on the times, but I’ll look past that after seeing this spot. Generous use…
Qube Konstrukt, an Australian “do it all” agency has my pick of the week. With works using every medium and in every media I just couldn’t put them down in any way. Not only do they produce a ton of work, but they produce it with such aesthetic quality and…
Not only is the video especially inspiring, due to the content and also the ambient soundtrack, but the concept is ingenious. If produced, this phone will be a huge step forward in application development and in design. We are talking about three touch screens here as opposed to our current…
Hello everyone! On behalf of TAC, we hope that everyone had a pleasant break. It is good to be back though! TAC has a lot to look forward to this semester. First of all, our general board meetings will be kicking off next Tuesday, January 25. The time and location…
Recently, I saw a Target documentary titled “Behind the Bullseye” a couple of days ago on CNBC and it explained how the brand has become such a power player amidst the ever changing economy. I posted about Target’s Black Friday campaign not too long ago. Watching the brand’s evolution from…
