I had a lot of fun with these. I made some textures on Illustrator, and creating the little icons was a blast. My favorites include the one with the scraps of paper and the ticket one. As we discussed in class, the "http://" should be taken off, and I could reduce the text on some of them.
This exercise was important because I think employers expect designers to have a lot of transferrable, over-arching skills. They want to know you can do the work of a couple different people if necessary, and that you have a handle on advertising (because a magazine cover is basically a pretty, informative ad).
I'm looking forward to seeing how everyone's final ads turn out.
Felicia: I thought your 10/5 ad designs were simple yet fun. I think that's important while designing house ads. You get the info across, but you send the message in a clean and appealing way. Also, I enjoyed your "FOMO" ad because I use that term frequently while I am designing all night and my friends are out and about. Also that ad stuck out to me because of your gradient/textured background. Good job
