TBM - Senior Thesis

Dobbels, Derek Jacob and Christopher Bialk
Jamal Currie

This year we would like to launch an advertisement campaign that will promote our work to the community and possibly the nation. Our work will be featured on our website, that has yet to be constructed, and we only hope to reach audiences of all ages and all walks of life throughout the greater Milwaukee area. Not only will our experience with established businesses and firms grow, but our creative minds and portfolios will as well.
This document will effectively act as a course syllabus for the two of us, and so takes on the same concreteness as any other course syllabus in that not everything stated is final. Most of what is laid out below will be met to the specified dates, but some of the scheduled work is pending and may never be completed.
As for the website, it will be active as soon as we come to a decent understanding of how to construct one. This is out of our hands, we are currently learning how to do so and will know at some point during the semester. Upon its completion it will feature five buttons and fully interactive main page complete with intro animation/video. The site will have our mission statement, company history; list of works and pending jobs, a gallery, theater and contact info. Its design will capture the essence of our personalities and styles.
We will be creating a total of multiple advertisements—along with several thousand thumbnails—throughout this first semester. We will purchase spots and cards as our primaries, and t-shirts as a back up. We would like for our ads to be featured throughout Milwaukee as posters and post cards. Also through magazines such as the Sheppard Express.
