CASE STUDY
-
For this campaign, I will be featuring a Tide To Go Pen. My goal was to create photographs that elevate the value of the product by showing its key features in a style that is generally reserved for higher ticket items. To achieve this, I decided to go with pop art-style photographs. I used a yellow background to match the brand’s yellow secondary color and marry the product to its environment. The use of hard light gave the product the sharp edge animated feel that is so popular in advertising imagery these days. In addition, I created lifestyle photographs to show the product’s real-world use cases and create trust in the brand.
