Copywriting for Creatives

Description

Advertising can be boiled down to a concept expressed in words and pictures. This course starts where grammar, syntax and punctuation end to explore the art and science of visual language in advertising. Students will isolate the words behind the pictures and develop the ability to persuade with visual language on a broad range of topics. The course challenges visually oriented students to focus on the writer’s role in the creative partnership between art director and copywriter. Topics include developing advertising strategy statements, headlines and slogans; combining copy and images; writing long & short body copy ad campaigns, TV & radio scripts and copy for direct mail and demographic profiles.
