Hello, Hi, Bonjour, Hola, whatever. Anyways, welcome to my blog! Back on track, through out the first term, our humanity class has been learning about advertising. We learned about the colours, different types of advertisements and different techniques and appeals. We started our ads by calling and setting up a time to interview The Raven Pub manager with my group. We took notes and made our first draft. My first draft was to plain and needed more detail. Than we made a second draft (It’s terrible so let’s not talk about it). Each draft, our teacher tell us what to change to make our final draft. All of my drafts were made in Canva. Since we only have one chance to interview our business in Oregon, The Raven Pub was a practice. To be honest with all of you reading this, my drafts are pretty bad. I thought my final draft was better than my first two drafts.

Draft 1. Too plain and boring

Draft 2. Let’s not talk about this one

Final Draft. Better

When we were in Oregon, we showed the business our drafts. The business was Nisa’s Thai Kitchen. We interviewed them and took notes. They told us what to change about our ads. They told me to change “The best Thai food in town” to “The best Thai food in Bangkok.” But instead I put “The best Thai food in Oregon.” They also told me to make my pictures more visible, and add their Facebook. For my Final draft, the teacher told me to get rid of the steam and make the logo and Facebook logo bigger. I used the same app as before, Canva, and I also used a app called Pages. For most of my drafts, I used Canva, Pages, and a app called Snapseed. Since we weren’t allowed to use pictures from the internet, we took our own pictures. The picture I took wasn’t that good, but when I came back to Canada, I realized it was my only picture. I’ll definitely take better pictures next time.

Draft 1. Make pictures more visible

Draft 2. Only need one picture

Draft 3. Get rid of steam and make logos bigger

Draft 4. Better

At the end, I changed everything. I changed the font, the picture that I didn’t know I had and the layout. I used the same apps so yeah.

Final Draft 2. Weird

Final Draft. Better

The Final Draft was better but it wasn’t good enough. All I needed to do is add outlines to letters and make the title bigger. I used the app Phonto to do that.

Final Final Draft. Better
