Using Photoshop, create an ad that spoofs an existing print advertisement and communicates a critical message about the company and/or product. At first glance, the ad should resemble a “real” print advertisement.
Ad must include:
1. an image
2. ad copy (the text written on the ad)
3. slogan (Just do it; Have it your way; etc.)
4. recreated company logo, altering the original name.
Everything from the original ad must be altered. You can’t use the original company’s name and/or logo.
When finished, create a new web page (HTML Document) called “spoofad.html” in your My DP /multimedia/pages folder. Post your original ad with your written analysis and the ad you created with a detailed description that includes:
– the message of your ad
– how the images logos, colors and advertising copy (slogans) communicate this message
– what truths are ignored by the original ad
– how you altered the ad to communicate your message
– what Photoshop skills tool you utilized and how
Post your a link to your page as a reply to this post at the bottom of the page.
