4.0 out of 5 stars Great starter for aspiring art directors., Jun 9 2007
By Sean Trapani "amiable analyzer" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Advertising by Design: Creating Visual Communications with Graphic Impact (Paperback)
I'm an advertising professor, and I've used Landa's "Advertising by Design" for three different classes when teaching an Introduction to Advertising Design course.

The book is clearly written, organized well and rich in contemporary examples. Landa does a good job of discussing the problem-solving aspects of the art director's daily grind. And she very quickly establishes that there is a significant difference between graphic design and advertising design.

In her next edition, I'd like to see a section dedicated to ideation, perhaps talking about SCAMPER, non-linear brainstorming and other tools to help the student develop a good conceptual foundation. But, overall, I would recommend this book without reservation.

Finally a book about advertising that helps the reader understand how to develop relevant concepts as well as design! There are so many great examples of concept categories and so much excellent info on how-to create a cohesive campaign. The info on guerilla advertising and TV is very helpful.
