Hey,
I am currently studying advertising. I have basically had to design a museum from the ground up. My museum is a showcases some of the greatest hoaxes throughout history. (There is a museum shop inside the museum which plays on the whole early 1900 vintage American grocery and the weird and wonderful products available on sale.)
I need to come up with a very clever image, using manipulated typography. So a sentence forming an ironic shape or something similar. I am finding it extremely difficult and can’t seem to get over this creative block.
My ideas so far:
- All of our products are tried, tested and safe. We promise. (The M’s legs in the word promise cross over to visually bring across the idea of holding ones fingers crossed when telling a lie.)
- Balloon boy was here. (Shaped like a balloon. Playing on the recent balloon boy hoax.)
- We are coming very Soon. (The S in soon is shaped like the lochness monster.)
- Did Neil really walk on the moon? (The L and K from walk are shaped like legs are and literally walking on the word moon.)
- His fake diary sold for $6 million. (Typography shaped like Hitler’s mustache and placed lower down on the page.)
Any other ideas would be hugely hugely appreciated.
Think clever and creative guys.
Thanks!
