Print Ad

After viewing everyone's presentations on the print ad, how would you evaluate and improve upon your own? Explain why and how you would accomplish this.

  1. The print ad project was fun, and it showed how easy it could be to manipulate pictures to make different impressions. To improve, I would have made the artistic work better, and might have clarified on my traget audience. I also would have tried to refine my presentation. Overall, there was room for improvement.

  2. A more thought out and indepth explanation of the the target market and potential customers would make the print ad project much better. The artistic values could have been improved. The artistic values could add more power to our advertisements. Mostly the target market could have been improved better.

    I would have put more time into making my overall presentation more professional. For example, I would have done something with the background instead of leaving it blank. In addition, I would have included a bit more specific information about the magazines and target audiences. Other than that, though, I felt it was already pretty decent.

    Kristi and I did the ad for the new phone, the Verizon Versa. Our ads themselves were very creative. We changed the words and the images and they matched the new magazines. Furhtermore, our target audiences were accurate. However, they could have been m,ore specific. Overall, I think we did a good job. (Even though I did most of the work. Thanks Kristi! =P )

  5. I would improve our ad by making the slogan more catchy-er and making the powerpoint better because it was pretty bland.

  6. I dont think i would have changed anything on my project if i had to do it again. If i had to approve on one think it would be my photoshop skills. that is all.

  7. My partner and I would have made our presentation better by specifying our target audience better. We also would have made the pictures better aesthetically, and we may have tried to present in a better way. We could have talked more clearly and pointed to things as we talked.

  8. After viewing other people's prensentations on the print ad, i would certainly like to imporove upon my own. First, I would put the hair product into a different magazine such as Cosmo Girl instead of People magazine. Also, I would be more specific with the target audience by identifying the age, gender, ect., for each magazine change I made. The last thing i would like to change for my project would be making teh presentation itself more creative by learning how to use photoshop to crop the pictures and also making it attractive for the audence, so they are actually tempted to buy the magazine/product.

    By seeing other powerpoints I felt that we could of work better on the slogan and photoshopping the new ads. Overall, I thought my partner and I could of thought of better slogan for the new Rolling Stone ad.

  10. After viewing everyone's presentations, there are many other ways on how I could have made my print ad even better than it was. Some things I could have done was for instance, make my ad more eye-catchy to the audience and present in a more commanding tone. Also I could have made better eye contact to the audience and have a more organized presentation.

    I felt that we had a really good presentation. Our target markets were accurate and detailed and our ads made sense with the magazine they corresponded with. Also, they were pretty clever and were fitting. I guess, if we could have improved on something, it would have been perhaps my presentation. For example, I could have made more eye contact with the audience.

    After seeing everyone elses presentations, I think that my group could have improved on our ad quality. Some of the other group's ads looked real and ours did not. I think that working in photosohp with the ad would have improved our overall presentation. We also could probably have presented better, but I think it was a very good overall presentation.

    My print ad project cinsisted of a change of a GAP ad in PEOPLE Magazine. Overall our presentation was very good, we spoke loudky and used good eye contact with the audience. Our target market was specific and our ads looked very nice. One thing we did hear from the audience as a way to improve is by changing the new ad a little more. We could have done things such as make the "ripped" jeans actually look ripped. Other than that one modification, our ad was pretty good.

    After viewing everyone's presentation on the print ad, I would try to evaluate and improve my presentation in a few ways. Although the presentation was very good I think that we could have made it a little longer. When I stood up there I felt like all the information was there but the pace could have been a little slower. Also, I feel that we could have put the ad in a different magazine. We put it in People and Rolling Stones, however I feel it might have fit better in other magazines. Overall, it was a nice presentation but there could have been a few minor changes.

    I worked with Parth on a Progressive ad to change it to ESPN and Rolling Stones. While watching everyone else present their ads, i saw that our presentation could have improved. The photoshop and slogans made by the other students were better than what we had, but our information on the tareget audience made our presentation good. The other students were clever with how they changed their ad, while our slogan on both should of been better. I could accomplish this by thinking harder and putting more effort to make the slogan make sense. All in all, I wish the slogan was better, but we did have great information.

    Lenny and I altered an advertisement found in Parents magazine for the Mobile PalmPre smart phone. Overall, i feel as though we changed the ad in way that targeted a whole different audience by making subtle modifications to the text in the ad. We could have improved on catchier slogans and catchphrases, i suppose.

    I did the ad for the verison touch phone... If I had to change something it would be to change the target market and make it more appealing to younger people. Also, both our ads were more male friendly and that is something we could work on. Although, beside that i thought that our ads were the best and no one could touch us... Get at me.

    To improve on my print ad presentation I would just change the magazine one of the ads would be in. Other than that I think we had good ideas, explained our target market entirely, and presented well.

    We advertised Nestea Iced Tea's Natural Citrus drink. Melody and I made sure to come up with interesting ads that stressed the importance of a diet that includes natural foods. It would have been better if we changed up the picture though, instead of just the words. Also, we could have been more elaborate when explaining what the target market was. Overall , I think that the presentation went well.

    After examining different adds in magazines and focusing on their specific target markets, we have altered adds for the smart phone to appeal to different groups targeted in that magazine. Instead of altering only the tagline of the add, we could have also changed the color background of the whole add itself to gain the attention of the targeted group.

  22. if i had more time and and enthusiasm for the project i would have used the various adobe suites and created a much more professional end result. additionally,if it was up to me the ads would have been much more inappropriate and riddled with double-entendres. on a side note, i'm not a big fan of capitalization which you've probably noticed. just so's ya' know's.
