Throughout my time here I have learned many skills, my favorite being layout design. For my summary of learning I would like to design three pieces print advertising recruiting a future student to Ad Copy and Layout. For background and research I am going to make a short list of all the concepts we learned as well as the hurdles this class helped me overcome creatively. I think I will definitely try to take advantage of concepts like typography and software use to create thes

I have had a website since I was about 17. Having a website to house your portfolio is becoming just as common as having a resume...and almost more important too. Just like your resume must be unique, your website should tell the best story of who you are. Through this class I have learned to post frequently and improve my SEO by tagging each post accordingly. Beyond Advertising Copy and Layout I think I would like to start fresh and revamp my website to make it more simple a

What were you asked to do over this project? Throughout this project I found out more of what the Walt Disney Company values and believes. I learned how one of the largest entertainment corporations started off as a small animation studio and how one man's dream became an inspiration to millions. I learned that what we perceive as a brands main focus, might not always be. And through creating three spots for this brand I learned that to me the branding of the Disney company i

I met Hannah my freshman year of college at a sorority mixer. We both were new to OU, me as a freshman and Hannah as a transfer student from southeast Oklahoma. I thought she was nice and looked like an internet personality I love, she thought I was small and fun. We clicked but we had no idea that soon we would be soul sisters. Throughout the year we hung out more and before I knew it Hannah became like a big sister to me. She always gave me the right advice, encouraged me a

I'm a sucker for romantic comedies. I know, I know...they're really cheesy. While they won't probably win any oscars anytime soon they have a lot of characteristics in common with silent films. Both use slapstick comedy and overly dramatic romance to win over their audience. Both display overly acted scenes and physical emotion. Both are cheesy! So why not take this to a whole new level and turn Bridesmaids into a silent film! Check it out:

Story 1: Fall back in love. Jack and Carrie are in there 60s and just retired to the sunny state of Florida. Living in a retirement village can be quite boring and they were looking for things to do when they decided to get a Disney Annual Pass and re-discover their inner child. Things have been dull the past few years and now that the kids are older they don't visit as often. We see them entering the parks as Jack narrates how he remembers the first time he brought their chi

I am fortunate to work for one of the best company's in the world. Disney World that is. While many people love and know the history of the Walt Disney Company, I wanted to dive deeper into how they communicate as a brand. Why does the business exist? Walt Disney started out as an animator and through grit and determination turned his passion into a multi-billion dollar media company. The Walt Disney Company exists to creative innovative and re-imagined entertainment experien

What value do you see in tools like the Facebook and Twitter ad tools where you can quickly determine a market? Social targeting allows marketers to reduce wasted ad dollars and focus content more closely to a related audience. I definitely think it revolutionizes the way we as advertisers, but also as people interact with ads. Now my ads are personalized to my interested and make shopping much more focused. Did your market size surprise you at all? My market sizes were surpr

For this Facebook assignment I choose to create an advertisement for our student agency where we are selling "Get a Job" services. Students these days don't seem to have the best skills at making a convincing resume or portfolio. So naturally we are going to sell our services to recent grads and students looking for internships. For this Facebook advertisement I choose to target college students in the Norman area age 18-35 (older audience will include graduate students) arou
