Marketing Campaign – Instructions

For this project, you’ll create one marketing campaign for a business or organization of your choice. Check out the yoga studio, bakery, and PIXELPOP examples for inspiration. Those examples have many marketing pieces to reference, but you’ll only create a logo and 2–3 other marketing pieces for yours.

You will practice being self-directed in this class. I want you to take the reins and do your work at a professional level and with pride and devotion.
