- The social issue I chose to do this project on was suicide and depression in teens
- I chose this topic because I have personal connections with it. I know people who have struggled with contemplating suicide, and I have my own issues with depression.
- I hope that when people or teens see my ad, they change their thoughts on suicide. I want them to know that there are other ways to cope with how they are feeling. Suicide is a temporary solution to a problem that is occurring only at this point in their life. Life goes on, and they shouldn't be stopped by depression.
- My target audience is teens both male and female.
- My unique selling point is using things associated with suicide and depression (like guns and cutting) and making it artistic/creative. I wrote my slogan on the arms in my poster to represent cutting in a different way.
- Slogan: Permanent solution, temporary problem
- Tagline: It's impossible to have a future if you feel like you don't have one
- I really like how both of my projects turned out. They convey the message i'm trying to send, and I showed the message in a creative way.
- Some tips that I would give to someone doing the same assignment would be:
2. use all of your photoshop skills and add interesting things like cool fonts and textures to make your ad more interesting
3. sometimes simpler is better
- The most challenging part of this assignment was doing the yellow sheet and trying to find a tagline and slogan that I liked
- Something I did well was photographing my subjects. I really think both my poster and billboard have nicely photographed pictures. I like the angle I used for the arms, and how I photographed the eyes.
