Updates and Ads


I was doing some homework and reading for this week, when I realized that I had forgotten to post my final subverted advertisement. Here it is. After the suggestions in class, I made the Pepsi logo look more like someone had used a stencil to paint over the cereal box, and I changed the black font. I also changed the position of the billboard, making the corn field more prominent and the idea of a billboard more recognizable.

On another note, I played tour-guide to some friends from France this past week, and on Friday we went to Toronto. They loved seeing the CN tower and all that good touristy stuff, but we actually spent a surprising amount of time looking at billboards and advertisements. After discussing the assignment, we took a few pictures to add to the blog. This whole process has got me thinking totally differently now!
