Advertising is measured by sales barometers. You really have to believe in your creativity when it s judged by how many people react to it. This December, the advertising students will have a chance to show their work as art. According to Robbs, the art direction and other upper-division advertising classes will be displaying their ads at the Dairy Center for the Arts in Boulder. Advertising will be treated like an art, Robbs said.
Advertising is fun to look at.
Some people even frame various ads. Ads have the potential to excite and speak to people, just like art. People who get into advertising are creative and solution-oriented, according to Michael Smilanic, also an art director at Thomas and Perkins Advertising in Denver. They get bored with anything, yet are interested in everything, he said. They want their opinion heard.
