Poster example - This is the 2nd example which is a little more graphic and you can see why the pixelation is a must. The program is very sexual oriented and I am using this to a marketing too to get more sales from a male audience. In my research I found that a lot more women watch the program than males do.
I then researched more into what appeals to men and not to my surprise men like women. The image looks so much sexual when it’s pixilation just for your information.
Poster Example - This is a poster which is aimed at men to watch the Tv program Orange is the new black. The poster is supposed to be promote the sexual side which could appeal to male viewers however subliminally putting the message of love in the mix to. The heart is made up of bars to represent jail and the tag line which I’m not sure about below.
The image of Piper and Alex is supposed to be pixelated for different reasons also think I need to drop the font to a 90% capacity for good measure. I also have noticed the typo “imagine”.

How much of my job is to ‘create copy’ for a brochure or direct mail piece? I design, not write. Shouldn’t they be providing the language (what they want the headline, the byline & all the important copy)?
This is the 3rd search result when I put it in Google.

Advertising designer
Advertising design refers to the creation and organization of visual artwork used in advertisements (ads) for products and services. The designs used in advertising are created by graphic designers, and advertising agencies as well as the advertising departments of corporations employ these professionals to create and execute brochures, direct mail, web ads, and print ads. The design elements used include fancy lettering, borders, cartoons, illustrations, and photographs. The main difference between ad design and regular mainstream artwork is that advertising art must be designed to reach and compel the target audience to purchase products and services.
These are just a handful of powerful advertisement designs that I found and this avenue of Graphic design has always been one of my favourites.
