A half-page ad for Georgia Trend magazine that ran in 2023 as part of a larger push for MGA athletics. I cropped each athlete from sets of photos, making sure to represent a wide range of sports and equal gender representation. The purple explosion was made with a variety of custom brushes. Designed in Photoshop. Athletics photos by Jason Vorhees (@ midgakillrfotog)
An ad celebrating MGA’s graduating class of 2025 for Macon Melody Magazine. A simple core message with a grad cap and a flurry of vibrant colors and shapes to draw the eye. Larger shapes match the central text’s colors while the smaller shapes use the opposite(ish) colors for a touch of contrast. Designed in Illustrator.
An aviation ad for JAMES Magazine that ran in 2023. This was a very quick turnaround; less than 48 hours from start to deadline. We knew it had to simple and punchy, so I started with “The Sky’s The Limit” in a bold, san-serif font as the focal point. I found a stock image of a purple sky, tweaked the colors to better match MGA’s brand, and used the text as a mask to let the vibrant colors and shifting highlights/shadows of the image contrast with the white space around it. I then place the plane silhouette and removed the contrail area from the text to create some excitement. Designed with Photoshop & Illustrator.
A full page advertisement for MGA’s Aviation program that ran in the 99’s Magazine in 2022. The Ninety-Nines is an international, non-profit organization of licensed women pilots. Base image created in Photoshop; other elements placed with Illustrator.
