I was rummaging through my old backup files when I came across this Pentel ad that I did years ago. I was working for Sterling Paper which was the distributor of Pentel products here in the country.
One day my boss asked me to come up with a simple ad, measuring 2 inches by 10 inches to be published in a major broadsheet. I asked him when would he want a study ad and he said within the day. I was naturally surprised because it was too quick; too short a deadline for a print ad.
He said we were given that free ad space as a bonus for the series of ads that had just published on that newspaper. But the thing was they required that extra ad to be submitted not later than the next day. And so I had no choice. I made use of our existing product images and with the help of Photoshop, I came up with this:
It’s a very simple ad that I was able to finish in less than an hour. But still it was fun doing it given the very rushed deadline.

hahaha.. wow! natago mo pa.. i was wondering if i really did something as good as that for sterling.
A good one. I was not given the chance to do print ads though. Looks like you might want to pursue this at sometime since you’ve enjoyed doing that…
You’ll never know.
