Oh, hello.

Now that school is back in session, I guess it would be a good a time as ever to start this blog back up. Get my mind thinking about the things it should be thinking about and get my creative sauces running.

I am now officially an advertising major and will be working under the wings of Kenton Larsen, along with my fellow ad men/women.

I'm actually quite astounded by the amount of traffic this blog got during its first go, seeing about 200 views each week. But, when the posts started getting scarce, so did the amount of people that dropped by. Let's get those number back up, shall we? By the way, I have been getting a lot of random comments that are all in chinese. To whoever is doing that, stop. I'm Korean, okay? Or at least write in english please. I also wouldn't recommend clicking on any links that they post.

So, I'll be doing the usual analysis of things I've seen and think are cool in the ad world, as well as updating you on school projects. Tomorrow, we will be learning who our client is for the year. We, along with the PR students, will be separated into groups to create campaigns for a local business. After the big pitch, the client will pick one of the proposals and spit on the others. Exciting.

This is what I did this summer:



See you soon! Visit back often! Tell your friends!

Just a Disclaimer

I’m still trying to figure out what my blog will be about. We had a couple seasoned bloggers come talk to us in a seminar today. They were saying that it’s better to find a niche rather than blog about a topic that’s too general since it’s been done/being done by more than a handful of other people. I imagine my first couple posts will be all over the place, trying to figure out what the point of this blog will be.

Seeing as music is a topic that has oversaturated the internet with blogs, it makes it tough to see how I can incorporate it in mine. I completely agree with what Graham Hnatiuk of PROGRESSIVE WINNIPEG said about how there will always be someone who knows more about music than you, listens to more music than you and is just better at music than you. So, maybe instead of blogging about the external sources of music that we hear, I’ll write about the creative process that I myself go through internally when creating music. It can’t all be internal though. I’m bound to be inspired by something I find beautiful or different. When that happens, maybe I’ll explain why it affects me that way and what ways I try and come up with to achieve that effect in my own projects.

Plus, seeing as I can already feel CreComm taking over my life, this just might be the excuse I need to put down the paper and pencil and pick up my guitar and hum a couple melodies.
