"No More Flakes"

This image was found in CMYK Magazine located on the magazine racks in Parkland Library.  It is a magazine ad for Head & Shoulders.  The Art Director is Brittany Dameron, the copywriter is Kacey Coburn, and the instructor of the artist is Jamie Overkamp-all from The Miami Ad School in San Francisco, California.  The tag line for the product says, "An ambient expression of just how bad dandruff can look."  This is one of many great images that I found having to deal with various products.  This one stands out to me, firstly, because I use the product everyday.  Secondly, this image dramatizes the effects of dry scalp and puts the spotlight on just how visible it can be.  The placement of the statue works well with this image because it is outside and open to the elements.  Snowflakes in nature resemble how the buildup of actual scalp flakes (ew) look.  All in all, great concept and visually pleasing (almost).

This picture was found on allgraphicdesign.com.  The message of the image serves a purpose, plus having an a woman split up into sections is very eye-catching.  It is an awareness piece for people and companies that are trying to fight for saving animals such as cattle.  The function it serves is to be eye-catching and to promote PETA for their efforts in reducing animal slaughter.  The style is very much a swimsuit-type of spead that you would see in a Sports Illustrated or a similar magazine.  The way her parts are sectioned off make a resemblance between the valued parts of cattle and the similarities of human parts.  I think it is pretty obvious what attracted me to the piece, but the idea was really good too.

"A foot that doesn't stink"

I found this picture in the Milton Glaser Graphic Design book found in the Parkland Library.  It was a watercolor originally used as a poster announcing a series of concerts on various campuses around the country.  The name of the foundation he did this for is called The Poppy Foundation.  It works well that there is a flower growing out of a foot, which somewhat correlates with foundation.
