Advertising and Brand Creativity

I've always loved working with and building on ideas. Studying Advertising and Brand Creativity at AUT showed me how I could build a career doing so, and how I could bring my ideas to life. I stumbled into this course in my first year at university, and haven't looked back since. Advertising has changed my perspective on the world, and how we communicate with each other.

AVIS - Don't Bother

AVIS - Don't Bother was a personal project I had set for myself when pulling together my final portfolio. I noticed almost every advertisement for car rentals focussed on the marvellous destinations you can find while exploring foriegn countries in a rental, but not the chaotic and frustrating situations you can encounter with its alternative, public transport.
