Balancing your Print Design Layout
Posted in: Uncategorized
As far as making brochures and flyers is concerned, many would find it as pressure-packed as they have to create something out of the original ones we see in the market today. Most companies have graphic designers and artist whom propose the proper layout that will carry important company information which in turn will be the key towards providing information for its clients.
We see different concepts and layouts on how these print ad materials are presented. It all depends on what best suits the corporate image, an important thing that must be associated whenever a new idea for the marketing support materials comes up.
One thing you must consider though is not to be too enthusiastic about images and graphics. Remember, you need to put in proper text and use of fonts to make sure you get the real deal in making the most out of print layouts for marketing support of your business.

Newseum ads don’t do justice to journalism
Posted in: Uncategorized
As a former journalist and voracious history buff, I’ve been eagerly awaiting the opening of the $450 million Newseum in Washington, D.C. But I can understand why some people have been confused by the idea of a museum dedicated to the history and craft of the news industry. That’s why I was so frustrated to see The Martin Agency’s ad campaign for the new landmark. At its finest, journalism is the human face of history, captured at the ground level. So I’m left feeling that a great opportunity was squandered with these ads, which look like some kind of third-grade collage made from a Life magazine “Photos of Our Century†collection. (Click the image above to see a larger version, and click here, here and here to see more executions at Ads of the World.) This is a museum that deserves better. It is not simply about images of history. It’s about the people on either side of the lens. For example, any museum can show you the 1994 Pulitzer Prize-winning photo of a starving Sudanese girl being stalked by a vulture. But the Newseum also shows you the words of the photographer, who killed himself shortly after his shot appeared in The New York Times: “I’m really, really sorry I didn’t pick the child up.â€
