Practice Ad Creation

During today's Digital Art class, I decided to create an advertisement for the NoodleHouse pasta company. I created my advertise using Adobe Express.

My first step was signing up for the free software Adobe Express, where i can create the logo of my company and of course the rest of my advertise.

To sign up in Adobe Express I used my DMU Google account.  Of course, I can only use the basic features on my free account, but those are still more than enough to operate the programme effectively. As soon as I logged in, I selected the Create Logo button.

I looked for pictures of noodles that would best represent the brand NoodleHouse using the Elements tab. The next step was to use the Text tab to add my restaurant's name to the logo.

After that, I added the slogan 'Just Eat It!' to the bottom, and my new logo was nearly complete. The last step in creating the logo was to remove the background from the photo to make it transparent.

When the logo was complete, it was time to create an advertise for my business, NoodleHouse. I chose the Flyer template in Adobe Express because it was in the A4 format that I needed.

After opening Flyer, I went to the Media tab and searched for “Noodles”.  I selected the photo I liked the most, dragged it, and adjusted its size until it looked perfect.

Then I added and set the previously created logo. The last step was to select the Text tab and add my tagline: 'You have to try Before you die!'.

The final image was then downloaded from Adobe Express and uploaded as an A4 document, which you can see below.

Reflection

I had a lot of fun creating this advertisement and learned a lot of useful skills that I will apply to future projects. Although I am happy with my work, there are some elements that need improvement, particularly the unclear logo. If I were rewriting this, I would also change the tagline.
