Why I'm taking AD2 and Good/Bad Ex. of AD

I'm taking Advertising 2 Spring semester at El Camino College because I want to be successful in the Graphic Design Business. I believe in order to do this you need to first acquire the skills and experience i will learn from this class. Also it is a required class to receive the Graphic Design certificate that I've been currently pursuing for two years.

Good AD


This Ad is successful because it has a strong photo and also it has a clear typographic hierarchy. It's easy to read and understand. Plus it's interesting with means it's successful because as the viewer I am drawn to this ad; it makes me laugh.


Bad AD


I believe this ad isn't successful because as the viewer I get confused the message is not as clear as it should be in order to be a successful advertisement. There is no context to back up the photograph. I'm not saying it's not strong photographically because it is but as an advertisement I am not convinced it works.
