Melissa is kickstarting her kickstart



Hi all,

I've been sick as sick can be and behind with homework and work work, but here are my two kickstart ads.

I was originally going to do some "double-dipping" and do ads for my weekly radio show on CKMS FM 100.3 FM wednesdays at 5 (a little plug). It wasn't really working out, so I chose a non-mainstream natural cleaning product from Seventh Generation -specifically, their toilet bowl cleaner.

I welcome any feedback.

Special thanks to my group for being so helpful and understanding while I was sick.

For the first one, your ad could have had a ton of shock value if you had used an actual photo. Though it's perfectly understandable that you didn't. It's a good concept for the ad though.

I think that is the best piece of cartoon poop I have ever seen in a class at Uwaterloo to date. I kid you not.

Mr. Hanky aside, of the two I think the first one is my favorite: the design is particularly attractive as a result of the use of color. The defining separation between the ads body and the all-important product information made by the switch in background color works well, and distinguishes the "important bits" for the reader from the core message meant to draw them in.

Oh, and obviously, the humour behind the message and the unity between the shit and the shit-colored "crap" text works well. :)
