Advertising campaigns

10 ways to run an advertising campaign
An advertising campaign is a coordinated series of linked advertisements with a single idea or theme.

An advertising campaign is typically broadcast through several media channels. It may focus on a common theme and one or few brands or products, or be directed at a particular segment of the population. Successful advertising campaigns achieve far more than the sporadic advertising, and may last from a few weeks and months to years.

One of the best examples of this is the dark knight, this was one of the best examples because they went to so much effort to cover everything and every target audience.

Documentary and Evaluation

My final documentary is here! yay! yay! I hear you scream. However It wont load the file size is huge so yeah.... Oh god I sound like my brother.

Anyway I got the picks evaluated and they are producing them! Hoorah! Bonza! thats enough of that I think. I'm such a rabscallion!

Picks final designs

Finally I am updating my blog.
First of all I have made ten Final designs with a back design showing details of the studio.
Secondly, Kim Ives from plug studios came in on the 3rd of March and looked at everyone's work.
Kim said that mine and Phil's designs for plectrums and Invites were the best for looking at the psychology of people. I also gave her the samples sent from companies showing quality of work.
Thirdly I ordered final designs from a website called http://www.custompicks.co.uk/ which were the cheapest although there was no flexibility in the order. Other websites that include http://www.bestbadges.co.uk/ have a variety of materials and thickness.
Now all we have to do is to give a final presentation to Kim and to get the plectrums evaluated.

Final designs on post!

Oh I Forgot

I Voice a One-eyed box on my documentary, and they say we don't use time efficiently

An Overview

Hey all Five of you, so far my whole course has revolved around making and designing plectrums and animation/video editing which is interesting but not really challenging as I've done a lot of it before. I have been in contact with mulitple companies providing custom designed plectrums and i am awaiting a free sample which was shipped in November (Not the best of service) whereas I recieved Eight plectrums in early December boasting high quality prints and materials. I have used these on my acoustic and electric guitars and they have barely worn so thats a start. Will post designs soon!

Sample Plectrums

To get an idea of the quality of the pick companies they produce, I got some samples from one company so far and I got eight! I pay for that amount or even less! Money saving here we come

Howdy Y'all!

First of all i'd like to put something straight. Me and my colleague Phil have been working on a documentary about animation and he posted something on his blog that was done rather hastily. For example I did get archive footage for the documentary but I also did all the animating and audio editing while phil interfered with others work listening to music! Anyway I have been doing that while editing a video tour of plug and doing a promotional package for plug, mainly designing and researching plectrum companies that will supply these ploectrums with their logo on, I hope to complete design soon. See ya later!

Plug Studios Plectrum

I Have Been In contact with a few custom pick providers for the best quality picks for plug all within the range of 30-50p a piece. Designs soon!

Plug was Epic!! (Video Tour Soon!)

Hey that reminds me I never posted about my trip to epic TV studios, but I digress...
Today we spent the day at plug studios brainstorming ideas, filming things and best of all, playing around in the studios! Me and Jack, who plays drums, had a sort of jamming session except most of the time I looked stupid as I can't improvise for my life but PJC( thats what I call Phil) had an idea for an advert for plug where we all play Smoke on the Water where Jack played drums while I played the iconic guitar riff (properly(PHIL!!!)) and PJC played the bass line on the regular electric guitar because he can't really play guitar but he tried. Then we got an idea of what they wanted to keep and what they wanted to be done. After that I had a private conversation with Erroll about custom guitar picks, then guitars and work experience and music and bands. He was in a glam band called Glamourific. So That was my day!

Plug Studios!!!

Today we get to go off school and go to a music studio named plug studios to get an idea of how these type of places work and so we get an idea of what they want for our project to make a new idea for plug.

Logos

After no help with P-Hilipe Collins, The logo designes are finalised!

Freebies!!

I have found a leaflet entitling me to free everything (within Reason) F*** YEAH

Music Video Idea

The Metal byTenaciousD an awesome video to do but it would be hard to direct...
Any Thoughts?

Annie-Mation

The human being that is Phil Collins had a great idea for our documentary on animation, and that is Annie-Mation! An android with a strange pet we found in a cupboard to inform the world on animation history and facts. I made the armature and most of the design but the idea was Phil's.Pictures NOW!!!
