Jimmi Hendrix

That is the CD cover of a Jimmy Hendrix which I have to do as a first part of a Media studies project. I cut out a picture of Jimmy Hendrix, paste it onto CD cover, and then write a name of CD. Also I add some colour to the letters.

I used a 'Magnetic Lasso tool' which helps me to cut out the picture of Jimmy Hendrix and then I pasted it onto blank CD cover. I wrote a name of artist and then add some outer and inner glow by clicking on layer style.

Adbusters!

Adbusters Media Foundation (called Adbusters or the Media Foundation) is a not-for-profit, anti-consumerist organization founded in 1989 by Kalle Lasn and Bill Schmalz in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. They describe themselves as "a global network of artists, activists, writers, pranksters, students, educators and entrepreneurs who want to advance the new social activist movement of the information age."

The foundation publishes Adbusters a 120,000-circulation, reader-supported activist magazine, devoted to numerous political and social causes, many of which are anti-consumerist in nature. Adbusters has also launched numerous international social marketing campaigns, including Buy Nothing Day and TV Turnoff Week and is known for their "subvertisements" that spoof popular advertisements.

Adbusters want to stop us before buying any things from adverts like brand new nike shoes because you paying only for sign of nike, the same shoes without that sign could be half price cheaper than with that sign.

I think that few people will agree with adbusters, but rest of them still will buy famous brand products.

Adbusters have very difficult mission to do because adverts are everywhere, I did a project which says that i have to make picture of every advert which I saw in 5 minutes time at city centre during this project I saw about 70 adverts in 5 minutes, but I did not see any from adbusters. So here we can see that it is not easy to beat the advertising industry. Also it is not easy to raise money to be at every shop or bus,they have to beat a £17 million advert industry which produce lots of adverts every day.

The Power of Advertising

The Power of Advertising

Everywhere you go you can see a lot of advert hanging on walls, standing at street or stacked to shop windows. There is a lot of Adverts at Bus stations or just on the buses, on billboards or in newspapers as well as on TV. Every city is stacked by advert and also airports have lot of billboards with adverts.
Every year only in UK people and industries spend £17 million on Adverts, and these adverts help increase the selling items or attracted people to your product. This way you can also be sponsored by other industries e.g. ‘David Beckham is sponsored by Adidas’.
Everything from these helps industries in Brand Image and Brand Association as well. Brand Image e.g. ‘Nike=Football, Sport’. Brand Association= Success= Sponsors, successful team.
People can feel different needed to your product e.g. they can not like your design so you could put ‘design your own trainers’ program on website or attracted website with some fun or interesting stuff.
