ABOUT ME

    Hi my name is Aaron, I'm a Graphic Design major and I'm taking Principles of Marketing mainly because it is required for my program but, I really do enjoy marketing because it's all around us and I'd like to know the process of it and how to apply it to my own work. I like the psychological aspect of marketing and how they target certain audiences to get the best results for their product. Things I like to do outside of school are; fixing cars, video games, drawing, swimming, eating at new restaurants, watching sunsets, driving, and watching movies.

Dove made this campaign due to the pandemic causing everyone to resort to their phones for entertainment, more specifically, young girls comparing themselves to other girls online. Because of the uproar of social media usage in 2020, young girls all over the world are altering their faces to be more like the "other" girls they see online.       Dove has worked with Ogilvy, a marketing agency, since the 1950s. They’ve created many marketing campaigns in the past, including the one I’m writing about,”Reverse Selfie.” The film that Dove and Ogilvy created shows a 13 year old girl about to post a highly altered photo of herself online. It then looks normal at first but then I realized that the video was playing in reverse. The film was shown in reverse to show the proce...
