Do you ever daydream of designing an advertisement for a company? Compatriot wants you to help design the ad that you always wish existed. Or maybe just one that you think would be hilarious, inspiring, or pure mad! To launch a little art contest being hosted by Compatriot Snowboards in order to develop a fan-made advertisement, Compatriot has specifically commissioned “Neil” to invite you to submit artwork for a complete ad concept. Neil has this to say: ‘Hi, my name is Neil. I am a very, very famous man. I can’t even walk around in California without people screaming “Neil! I am gonna kill you and take your cheese!” I want YOU to do something for me and our country. I am on assignment to initiate an ADVERTISEMENT CONTEST for Compatriot Snowboards. Do you like art? Do you like snowboarding? Do you like Bruce Willis, Paris Hilton, and John Travolta? Who doesn’t? What this all means is that you can have a chance to design an ad (but it has to be awesome. Ad submissions that aren’t awesome will be rejected.) So what is the definition of awesome? The winner will know!’ JUST BE ABSOLUTELY SURE TO: – Use good judgment and common sense in decision-making and dealings with others. – Shower regularly, being sure to thoroughly cleanse & exfoliate skin for dramatic results. – Never allow your feelings to show. People don’t have time to deal with your emotions or personal challenges. – Only purchase clothing from a previously approved list of contemporary and youthful clothing stores (usually located within a shopping mall or “plaza”). Looking good is everything, and all the well-liked teens know this. – For optimal success, work hard in your executive position. Financial lavishness is only a reward for those who devote 110% of their time and brain to work. Let’s face it; you work 40-hour weeks to pay off your debt. And then you die. Avoid delays in this routine by throwing others under the bus when the pressure mounts. – Create the full-color file using a 11” x 13” dimension. Just follow your dreams by sending ad concepts in JPG thumbnail format to: Compatriot Snowboards with “AD CONTEST” In the subject line. Deadline is July 15th, and the winner will be announced online. Good luck!
