As a long time direct marketer I find I quite refreshing to come across a designer THAT CARES ABOUT RESULTS! In this day and age of colleges turning out graphic designs by the hundreds every semester. It seems to me that all they teach these newbies is how to run the software and write a large invoice. I would like to point out in this post the author states, and I quote. "I am putting my money on the word “Horrors” as a hook to pull someone over to find out more, that is where the emphasis is. The rest of the text is smaller because I want “Horrors” to be like a magnet for the eye – I don’t want the rest of my text to compete with it." This is more the words used by a creative director of a marketing team and less by a simple graphic designer, merely wishing to collect a check. In today's markets merely presenting a message is not enough. One must standout. I have started a new publication call - The Contest Buzz & Review Magazine, to help people promote their contest. Just as you use contrast to help emphasis the word "Horror" I use my publication to help emphasis contest and companies that I think are worth wild. Billy Bass-cbrzine.com WOW!
