The Beach Isn't Always Gorgeous - JOSH G



Name Of Original Ad

The Original Ad was for Qt Sun Tan Lotion. It was a picture of a lady in a bathing suit, reading the news paper, on the beach, on a nice sunny day. There was a bottle of sun tan lotion beside her. The original slogan was "It makes you browner faster"

Rationale


I chose to make a spoof ad of this ad beacuase the beaach isn't
as pretty and breath taking as it appears in ads. I have personally been on beaches all along the pacific coa
st and there is such a thing as a cloudy day(it may not happen very often but it does happen). I also chose it because I thought I could do lot of things with it.

What I Did

I did a lot of things to my ad. First I found a picture of Jaws on the Web and then I pasted it in behind the lady. Then I erased all the words that were already
on the ad and peplaced them with my own. I erased the slogan above her and erased the symbol on the bottle of sun tan lotion. I then found a picture of the ocean on google and pasted it in behind jaws. Then, I found pictures of killer ants and pasted them in beside the lady. Then, to make it even "worse", I added a Tarantula on her leg.


Images Used

The images I used all came from google image search. To find the picture of the lady, i typed in "Swimsuit". Then to find the picture of the shark I typed in "jaws". Then to find the ants i typed in "ants", and to find the spider i typed in "tarantula".

What would I do Differently

If I were to do this ad again i don't think I would change too much, but I would try and do more work on the slogan.
