After several weeks spending a couple of hours every few days running through Google’s Digital Garage online certification for Fundamentals of Digital Marketing, I finally achieved the certification today! It wasn’t very easy and had a few confusing questions now and then, but a great online experience and learning experience to have.
During the second semester in 2019, I undertook a Copywriting course as a part of my Bachelor of Communication [Advertising] at RMIT. It was an interesting course that taught us to think verbally to convey and communicate a creative brief, a little different than the design of course but still interconnected on a macro level.
We had an individual copywriting assessment that was to produce a radio advert for pedigree and pet rescue to help with adopting unwanted dogs from a shelter and for this project I was presented the Silver Pixel award.
Another assessment involved was working in a group and it was to write copy for a website, specifically a new local hardware store chain. The task was to research and create a new brand name and tagline for this local new store and find the niche of its services in the ever-competitive DIY market. For the group work that we created for this task, we were presented with a Bronze Pixel award.
I’d like to thank my Copywriting tutor Lynette Clark for her effort teaching us how to think as copywriters this semester, she was a lovely asset to all students.
Our group named the ‘Artery Ad Agents’ consisting of (Ruby, Ramy, Rey, Connor & Wi Vern) were one of five groups chosen from the Advertising Strategy course to present our creative brief presentations directly to the Australian Red Cross Blood Service [ARCBS].
The task was to develop a creative campaign based on our Creative brief consisting of FIVE (5) creative executions that use advertising (both traditional and digital) and at least one other IMC communication tool.
All creative advertising executions we propose must communicate the same single-minded intended message in the brief and the same branding properties. Each advertising execution should be designed as a stand-alone piece – i.e. so you don’t have to see all executions to understand each ad.
To be chosen and considered worthy enough to present to a live client such as the Australian Red Cross Blood Service was indeed a great feat for us but also a proud moment to be able to provide input to a worthy cause!
