Evaluation

This is my final piece of work. I produced a magazine advert for our product "Immune". To help me with my final piece I looked at adverts for deodorants and sports products and used them as inspiration for my final piece. These adverts usually only feature the product in the picture with very simplistic designs. I also researched on how big magazine adverts usually are. There are a few different sizes that are usually used but I used 128 X 190mm. I feel that my final piece would appeal to my target audience and would advertise our product very well but if I were to do it differently I would want a photo of someone using the spray.


The tools I used:

  • Gradient tool
  • Paint bucket tool
  • Pen tool
  • Magic wand
  • Adjustments - levels
  • Marquee tool
