Advertising Campaign - Critique
OBJECTIVE
This assignment will test and develop your research, analysis and writing skills. You are required to read and research academic papers, articles from trade
journals and other relevant publications such as advertising or marketing texts in order to formulate a balanced and well-developed discussion about the
topic and the campaign in question.
If possible, you are also encouraged to include opinions and anecdotes from industry practitioners or your own industry experience.
TOPIC
“Advertising, as we know it, could not exist without creativity.”
Zinkhan, 1993, “From the Editor: Creativity in the Journal of Advertising.” Journal of Advertising, 22 (2) p1-3
With this statement as the basis for your paper, choose ONE of the following three campaigns, then ‘discuss and compare’ it with another TWO campaigns
in the same product category.
Get to the heart of the debate over creativity in advertising, and consider perspectives from both academics and practitioners. And always think how the
theory may or may not apply in practice. If you have personal experience or can find industry anecdotes to support your discussion, so much the better.
Your paper must explore the issues around creativity in advertising in depth and go far beyond a superficial definition of terms.
