SRRG Recruitment Fliers part deux

Got an email today with the below information in it. Will post new fliers when done:

Sarah,

I would like to get flyers printed with current and updated information. Would you be able to design 2 flyers for me by next week?

*One will be a full 8x10 page for us to hang up places
* the other will be a 1/4 page handout flyer for handouts

Basically they will have the same information, maybe taking some things out of the small one just so it is legible. I'm thinking lets just do it in black and white so it's cheaper, although you can design it in color just to have in case, you know?

Here is a bunch of information that we could put on it, word it however you think is best, feel free to add or subtract anything.

Publication Design - CD Package

Our assignment was to choose a song (with lyrics) and create a typographic interpretation. We had to create a CD package for our song with a booklet and CD design. The words from the song had to be somewhere within the booklet. I chose Common Reactor by the Silversun Pickups. There is a link to the song below. Common Reactor is a bit chaotic in terms of words but the music in the song is very upbeat. I chose to create something a bit chaotic but fun on the inside of the booklet. The outside of the booklet is a little more organized, but still somewhat abstract. The CD design reflects the booklet cover.

Advertising Strategy and Tactics

Our assignment was to create two spreads for Everlast.
Core message: Everlast is a serious tough brand.
Everlast is not a fancy, gimmicky, gym brand that is probably endorsed by a big name star.
Requirements:
Do not sell as a boxing product.
Ads must look similar and have a similar creative approach.
Use a metaphor technique
Must use associations-a visual or verbal metaphor


In essence we had to create two ads for Everlast workout apparel without bringing in boxing and without making it like Nike, Adidas, etc. I chose to use personification as a verbal metaphor in both of my ads. We will be evaluating our ads in class today and then will have a chance to tweak them.
