Making our own ads

We’re working on a new project in school were we have to make three different ads. The ads we have to make are a ad for a business, an ad for a secret place that you want tourists to go to, and an ad that advocates something related to earthquakes like tsunamis or volcanos. What we did is we made a first draft brought that to school and got critiqued on it. Then we made a second draft and got that critiqued, then we made a third draft and got that critiqued. Here are my ads.

This is my first draft of my tourist ad. It’s a little messed up because when I downloaded it to an app we use, on ou’re iPads, to hand in homework it messed up and since I couldn’t find any other copy I have to use this one.

Her’s the critique I got for this ad: “I like the look of the bright green grass/trees”, this one wasn’t helpful because I couldn’t use this to improve my ad. Here’s the other critique that I got: “you can turn the font colour darker, then put the words on the picture so there is no white space”, I didn’t chang the font colour because I liked it and I didn’t get rid of the white space because it was a design choice. The one thing that I did add, which I’m surprised no one suggested,is a place.

This is my first draft for my buisnes ad. Here’s the critique I got on this ad: “use less blank space” and “make the picture bigger”, so what I did is I made the picture bigger (by a bit) to and made the word cloud at the bottom bigger and with more words to fill up the empty space.

This is my first draft of my disaster Ad. I actually didn’t get critiqued on this one, I don’t know why and I don’t think anyone else got critiqued on this ad either because I’m pretty sure we didn’t even do a critiquing thing in class for this one, so I’ll just tell you what I changed. All I added was One extra thing on the “Things you can do to prepare” list.

This is the second draft of my tourist ad. I can’t actually find any critique on this one either which is weird, so I’ll just tell you what I changed. For this one I just added my own picture of my place on changed the text after I found out you can still use my houses wifi from there.

This is my second draft of my business ad. Here’s the critiqu I got on this ad: “I like the picture”, “the white text on the blue background is eye catching”, It would be better if you had a Kumon logo” which I added, “maybe I could change the font to something less plain” which I didn’t do because I was trying to make it look like an actual kumon ad, “make the wording more formal like your talking to someone serious” which I tried to do, and “some people might Like math and still want to do kumon” which I didn’t change because I was targeting people who don’t like math.

This is my second draft of my disaster ad. Here’s the critique I got: “make the word disaster not cut of” which it dosn’t realy it’s just sitting on the wall, “add a more specific and clear background” which I tried to do by making the picture in the background more visable, “add a bit more colour to the background” which I didn’t do because I didn’t see how I could and I didn’t want to, “add a more colourful pic” same reason as last time I didn’t think it would look nice and I didn’t whan’t to, and “maybe be remove the disaster on the side” which I didn’t do because I like the disaster.
