Long's

The best part of longs horseradish is the fact that your next jar is still growing. blah blah blah

this is probably the piece i am the most proud of.

it looks a bit different from the original ad. my professor told me i was "obviously not very good with art direction" because he didn't care for the ad. (i thought it was funny that he said that, it made me just want to prove something more than it made me mad) but i re-did the ad and it won two classroom vote awards (whatever that means).

more importantly it won a golden addy at the local addy. yeahhhh!

Dasani

One of my favorites.

the ad was due within 48 hours. i was at work, came up with the idea, picked up a 24 pack of dasani on the way home from work and strategically placed them throughout my bathtub.

i am not naked. i have a swimsuit on.
but i could have been naked because no one was in the room with me, i used autotimer.

starbucks

my friend maddie works at the rave starbucks on bayou and asked me to make a flyer for them. the flyer is pretty self explanatory. i guess i like it...i dunno, the jury is out. i wanted to keep it simple and had to get it done quick. so don't judge too hard, unless you want to.

Life in Mint Condition

This ad earned the highest grade out of all my ads according to my professor.

it did not win an addy. not even a bronze. whatevvvvvaaa.

FUN STORY: "Altoids Small's" new slogan is "are you in mint condition?"
-4 months after this was turned in for a grade.

Black Magic

This is one of my favorites.
I loveeeeee the font. you may recognize it from an urban outfitters bag.

also, that shoe is still shiner than the other in its pair. i also left the kiwi shoe polish at the apt that night and never brought it home.

Everlast RUNNN

props to skrilla bobcat.

this is the first photoshoot i did for an AD after i bought my SLR camera. i like the way it turned out for a first time photo.
this ad got a major makeover after the teacher blasted it for poor art direction.

but if you saw the other ads in the class.......

Everlast Punch

Your car belongs in the driveway...get it...cuz you are tough and dedicated and use your garage as a gym.....

skrilla b-cat is a good model.

shadow/highlight turned out to be tasteful. thanks photoshop.
