Reviews for The Fundamentals of Creative Advertising: Second edition (AVA Academia)
A useful overview of the advertising process from brief to realisation with lots of excellent examples. A good section on ambient and guerilla advertising too.
Dave Caton, Swindon College, School of Art, UK
This book combines beauty and edginess with its blend of four-colour ads, groundbreaking campaigns, and how-to narrative. Part of the AVA Fundamentals series of art and design books, it puts the reader right in the middle of the creative advertising process. Step by step, the chapters outline the formation of an ad campaign: evaluating media options, carrying out campaign planning and strategy, and developing the creative concept. From utilizing traditional advertising media, such as newspapers, magazines, radio, and television, to low-cost, high-impact guerrilla advertising techniques, the authors (all, Southampton Solent University, UK) cover all the bases. The design aspects of typography, copy elements, logos, and layout are not only explained but also illustrated, bringing the whole process together. Some of the advertisers represented include VW, Honda, Virgin Atlantic, Sony, Dr. Pepper, Cadbury, London Transport, and Heinz. Designed for both advertising professionals and students, the book can be used as a reference guide or text. Its artful presentation of print and illustrations makes for a pleasurable reading experience. Summing up: highly recommended to upper-division and graduate marketing and design students, faculty, and practitioners.
P. G. Kishel, Cypress College, USA, Choice review March 2012
This book is designed as a guide to the working practice and creative processes within a modern advertising agency. The authors... are all industry insiders currently attached to the Advertising and Marketing degree course at Southampton Solent University. Here they offer a concise overview, extensively illustrated, which gives the novice a sound orientation and understanding of the jargon, stages and evolution of an ad campaign from idea to finished product. The role of the image is thoroughly examined and explained.
