Tulsa Zoo Advertisement Ideas

I like the third idea the best because it's a play on words. The Tulsa zoo is actually located in Mohawk Park and it actually has a Grey Crowned Crane you can go see.

I also like the first idea as well because it gives the advertisement a personal feel.

I like the second idea because I think it could look quite visually pleasing.

Zoo Composition Inspirations

I found these adds for the zoo compelling.

I especially like the polar bear one. It has many elements of the zoo the make up one image. This strikes a chord with me because when I think of the Tulsa zoo I think of many different things, but ultimately it's about the animals.

I also really like the snake ad. Maybe I can spell out Tulsa Zoo with different animals....

I really like the tiger and antler ad because it gives people a chance to think about how it would feel to be an animal. Anytime an ad has a personal feel or you can see yourself in someone else's shoes, it really sticks out because we live in such an individualistic society.

The gorilla zoo ad is emulating a cologne ad, but it reminds me more of a movie poster. Maybe I will take a popular movie poster and make it into a Tulsa zoo ad.

Tulsa Zoo Word List

Word List:

penguins, seals, polar bears, fun, summer, walking, hot, smelly, lemonade, lunch, sun glasses, ice cream, children, gift shop, elephants, lions, zebras, leopards, pandas, giraffes, monkeys, prairie dogs, fuzzy, fish, ponds, reptiles, snakes, slimy, caves, desert, different environments, spiders, alligators, plants, endangered species, rehabilitation, baby animals, learning, education, field trip


The words in bold are the ones that stick out in my mind the most when I think about going to the Tulsa zoo. 

If you're wondering about why the word "caves" is in bold it's because the zoo has caves you can explore. I always loved exploring those. There are many different environments you can visit at the Tulsa zoo. For example, there's a desert, rain forest, ice land, and the caves (mentioned earlier). This is the lay out of the zoo. 

Spaceship Assignment

Here is the Spaceship assignment.

Final PSA

I just tightened my image even more by making the all the text at the bottom flush left. I also made sure there was enough room at the bottom so the text wouldn't get cut off. 

I made some final touches....

I added a humane society symbol on the bottom right hand corner. I changed the main logo's font (more bold). I  made "support the buyout" much smaller. I made www.hsi.org stand out so the viewer will instantly know which website to go to. Also, I inserted "Canadian"in the description so that audience would know that this is a Canadian problem. Lastly, I changed a few colors of things, too.

Finished Seal PSA

Here is my finished version. I added some text explaining the buyout and what you can do. I played around with the the light by burning around the snow and dodging around the seal. I also added a shadow to the whole poster. This sense of lighting gives the ad more depth.

Seal PSA Work in Progress

Added the snowflake and the other slogan.
