Capstone Ideas

1) My main idea and main focus is to create an advertising campaign that incorporates probably 2-3 mediums. These mediums will probably be a website, print, and/or a video. I would love ideas on what the subject of my advertising to be, either to make up a business or product or to stick with something real. With this showcase I'd like to display my skills to get a job at an Advertising and PR firm somewhere in the city. My main inspiration for this was Hirons&Company located on New York Street. www.hirons.com


2) My second idea is to create a short documentary on an influential topic that is locally based. Although I have been brainstorming I have had no great revelation as to what the topic will be. I will probably use one of the two other ideas. I am inspired to do a documentary more so than a film because of Professor Edgar's influence in his documentary class.


3) I could also just focus on promoting my cousin's professional photography business. They're only means of promotion is through Facebook, so I could create a website with a gallery and post video blogs of their interviews to promote their business. They already have a lot of material to shift through and organize so this project would take a lot of work. They also live in Illinois which could create some scheduling and time problems. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Lewis-Sisters-Photography/166869120007757
