[HELP] in need of ideas!

Kettercat · 02-02-2004, 01:28 PM

I need some ideas -- I'm supposed to be making 3/4 ads for 'Swatch' for my designs class by Wednesday evening and I have NO idea whatsoever.

I need it to go with the slogan 'Your Time'... and all ads/postcards need to have a theme behind them, a collective one. You know, the same idea in all of them but different images or with a twist. Y'know?

So if anyone has any ideas for things I could do... please please share

I'll love you forever!

Yeah, I thought of making it but then someone else in my class has done something like that (one of a pregnant woman, another one of a bride and a groom and the third one was of two old people... something along these lines) so it'd look like I copied her :/ (that bitch lol)
I thought of taking a picture of the Big Ben, for example and adding like a clothes-lable to it that says 'Swatch', then on the bottom have 'your time' etc. That'd be great but I need two/three similar ideas but I can't think of anything that'd fit.

Thanks a bunch by the way

'Swatch' is a Swiddish brand (I mean from Switzerland) and they tend to have like this 'mark' [I think I'm not being clear enough]. Clear and simple lines tend to 'be part' of their adverts (it's like when you see painting, and after a while you can tell more or less by the way they paint, when it was made or who could have been done and it and so...) Well, It's the same with their adverts. They, usually, put a simple, good-quality picture, that it's not like the 'average' picture (they are not goin to put, for example, a flower that you can see and find everywhere, usless the picture has something special) but at the same time they do not 'fall' into excentricities. Then, on the bottom you find that 'Swicth label' (that rectangle) and "Take your time..." or whatever.

I hope that was clear, and helpfull

Kettercat · 02-02-2004, 07:10 PM

That was very helpful, as a matter of fact

thanks!

I now have the Swatch logo and everything, all I need now is ideas for pictures to use on the ads

I'm glad! Think of a picture that after you see it and read like "Take your time" you think, oh yeah it was worth it!
