MY CONCEPT AND APPROACH
Following my review of the minimal brief and analysis of the clients website I wrote out
my thoughts on paper to help focus ideas and direction. Noting down the product
selling points there was plenty to use as body copy however I want the ads kept focused
on one or two features of the product in order to capture viewers limited time and attention span.
As the brief didnt contain any branding guidelines I checked the website fonts and colour palette
and also downloaded the fonts I needed. Collating notes on look and feel for the site I then took
a look at competitors and other baby related products to get a feel for any trends in the market.
As the time allotted to the project is short I sketched out in Figma some base ideas on possible
layouts and then jumped straight into high fidelity mocks to create 2 x top funnel ads and 2 x bottom funnel designs. I used the website colours as well as the wavy shape in the designs to unify the ads with the website to help with user recognition and trust of the site and products and the ads promoting them.
Part of my concept is to pick one of the products selling points for the top funnel ads, and for the bottom funnel ads where viewers had already visited the site and aware of the product and its features, I chose to focus on offers for the free cutlery and discounts. This will help push them further along the funnel and help motivate to purchase.
I found that I didnt like the icons on the site as I feel they are not easily identified and I created an icon of sorts for the cutlery, and for the wipe clean icon I obtained from Flaticon library.
Lastly I wanted to avoid using baby images that look straight at the camera/viewer, rather I want the baby image to be looking towards the body copy and lead the viewers attention
to that area. For this I chose a left to right layout and flipping the image and made product corrections where needed.
The designs, layout and icon updates are a good starting point for further exploration on the project and more time would enable refining look and feel following client feedback on this initial visuals as well as any campaign strategy from the Performance Marketing team.

From sketch idea to silhouette mocks and high fidelity layouts
My preference was to use images where faces are not looking into the camera at the viewer as my concept was for the baby image to be looking at the body copy to naturally lead the viewers attention and interest to that area and the messaging.
