Craigslist Assignment 2: Electric Boogaloo

Craigslist Assignment: Create a print campaign for Craigslist.



Thanks to Dwight B for thinking of Free Wood. Here were more things I thought of after class. Whatcha think?

#1 Design: A shot from the nose to the beltline of a young, sexy vampire (we can see the fangs). In the middle of his chest is a wooden stake.

Tagline-We don’t care what you use it for

#2 Design: Noah building an ark…it’s kind of a patchwork job…the landscape is filled with hundreds of pairs of animals.

#3 Design: A woodsmith’s shop. We see a man (obviously Gepetto) making an army of Pinnochios…some of them are already alive.

#4 Design A man surrounded by zombies. He has a hefty hunk of wood in his hands (probably a rough baseball bat shape). The shot is of him smacking a zombie in the head; the zombie definitely ain’t gonna make it.

#5 Design: The interior of a house, near the front door. A large armoire has been shoved up against the door. Other furniture (Couches, chairs, etc) are barricading the windows. Through the windows we see zombies trying to get in.

#6 Design: In the foreground we see an arm (from the POV of the reader) holding out a wooden torch. Just a few feet away is a panicked Frankenstein, his hands up, covering his face.

Design #8 We are in the witch’s Candy house from Hansel and Gretel. We see Hansel and Gretel and the woodburning stove; Hansel and Gretel stand next to the stove and a large pile of wood; the fire from the stove is glowing merrily. Hansel and Gretel stand facing the reader, arms crossed, smug looks on their faces

Design #9 A wolf stands outside an ENORMOUS (Like 100 feet tall) Fortress made of wood; a Pig stands at the top of the tower, thumbing his nose at him.

Design#10: A giant roughly-hewn, wooden Trojan Horse; soldiers are spilling out of it; it's the middle of the night, inside the city gates

Design#11: A huge Burning Man sculpture; nighttime, the sculpture is on fire, thousands of people dance around it

Hey, do you think it even needs the tagline?
