Aaron's Pepsi Ad

Pepsi Ad

Starting from a blank canvas, create an ad for a new product of Pepsi.

Think about branding.

Think about how to link your new product with the established brand of PEPSI.

Invent a catch phrase of your own to help sell the product.

Use the following steps to begin your design.

1- Fill the background with a deep blue color. Reference the Pepsi bottle in the room for ideas.
2- Create a rectangle across the middle of the canvas with the marquee tool. Fill it with white.
3- Fill the area above the white with red.
4- Now manipulate the image to create your ad.
5- Don't forget a logo on it when finished. Use a font style that will reflect the selling point of the ad.
