Awesome Anti Drug Ads

found these on Ads of the world, awesome ads, and really effective in my opinion when it comes to anti drug advertising.

WWF ads

I am a big supporter of the World Wildlife Federation and they have amazingly creative and inspiring advertisements, here are a few of them. 

School = almost done for good

3rd last day of school is almost over!!!!! Now all i need is a co-op :(
Considering I don't really want to be an art director I am having trouble deciding what it is I want to do as a career.....You would think by my fourth year here at Mohawk I would know...but I dont. I am somewhat leaning toward Production, so wish me luck!

Woo! Its friday!

Thank god its Friday, 3 more weeks to go of class, then we're done for good, then it's on to bigger and better things, a co-op of course, and then hopefully a paying job after lol! I don't know why but whenever I am at school trying to upload images or new ads I have created they never want to upload!!! Grrr makes me so mad! But yet Ian sitting right beside me just uploaded something on to his Carbon Made site and it uploaded just fine! I guess Im cursed. I do have quite a few more ads to upload onto here and my online portfolio so stay tuned!!!

Kidrobot


About 2 months ago i went to this club in Toronto called Circa, and one of the rooms was called the kidrobot room, it has all these graphic designs on the walls, and little action figures everywhere, some of the little figures were even stools to sit on and recontly i found out that kidrobot is actually a brand, they have all sorts of different little toys with designs on them, they also sell clothing and other merchandise as-well i just thought it was really cool, they have lots of stores in the staes, in New York and L.A and whatnot, heres some pics of what they sell and how their stores look..

retail ads


for my retail class, we had to find retail ad's and re-do them, and make them better, these are the ones i did, the first two are the orginals, and the 2nd two are the ones i did!

2nd condo ad

heres the re-done version of mine and ians condo ad, but with my art direction idea....i think its pretty good, considering im not much of an art director

The Grass Roots

So today I didnt go to school, wasnt feeling so hot, but I did spend my day looking at all the amazing work on Ihaveanidea.org and came across some extreamly funny ad's for hemp clothing. Even though it is a large sterotype that every person who smokes weed wears hemp clothing...these ad's are still hilarious!

Volcom = God

So one of our teachers decided it would be a good idea to have a blog, which we must update everyday! Thanks Raf! haha. I guess its a good idea, we can upload our own creative work, and view our peers, and keep people up to date on all forms of art that effect our lives as Advertising students. 

Volcom Stone is more then a skateboarding and snowboarding brand, but its also art, a lifestyle, a religion if you will. On the Volcom website they have SICK pieces of art by the Volcom featured artists. Check it! www.volcom.com/art . With its pop arty feel and don't give a f*ck attitude I truly admire and strive to design like some of these artists do.

Until tomorrow, Keep on Rockin' in the Free World!
