Specialty Item Material Update

So I went to Micheal's today and was looking around for some sort of material that I could make the body of my specialty item from. They didn't have any industrial foam (wasn't surprised.. I have no clue where to find that). But I did find regular blocks of Styrofoam.. but then decided that that would become to messy and I'd have to spend even MORE money, buying a cutting device for it. So finally, I rested on regular foam (the kind kids use in art projects). I've decided that I'm going to layer it so it is thicker yet still manageable.
Still not sure yet how I'm going to do the wheels.. although I think I have a plan that would avoid that altogether.
More soon.

My Specialty Item Idea

I think that it would be really cool to use the finger-skateboard toys that came out a few years ago. It would be a cool way to promote a real-life skateboard and biking store. I think I would place a sticker on the bottom of the skateboard that promoted the store.. and then possibly have other stickers that you could either collect or would be given with the finger-skateboard to switch out.

(If you aren't familiar with the finger-skateboards.. here is an example image below.)

Specialty Items

Cool specialty items.

YouTubeVideo

I watched this and it got me thinking...

Line and Text

A line and text experiment.

Ideas with Image

These two are the same idea as my all text ads, but they have images.

Scratched Ideas

These were some things I was working on that didn't make it.

More on Ads

So I decided to see what an all type ad would look like.. and I gotta say.. I like it. It is clean and straight to the point! And I think not having an image leaves the audience wondering just what the ad is about. Then the logo at the bottom leads the viewer in the right direction.
