Ad help

hi, I made this ad for a cleint and he tells me he really loves it, but hes scared to advertise it in the local papers because he thinks ppl will complain that its too ‘goyish’ and hes scared its too striking.

i get what he means, but im rly struggling to find a way to change it without making a whole new ad… any ideas??? im used to making things more striking not less🙈

i really love it how it is. but thinking you could make it less striking if you make the image a little smaller, perhaps more to the left hand side as well…

i cant rly move the position of the image of the boy with the ball as it is in a special place - the ball is over the ‘o’ and the feet are on the letters - as soon as i move it the whole ad looks unballanced :smirk:

lol i feel for you!! it’s really nice and bold!!
maybe you can add tzitsis strings to the boy??
otherwise i think if the text was white rather than bright lime green/yellow it’d tone it down but then your ball may not be noticed…
even tho its annoying maybe a solution would be to change the yellow colour of his trainers/sneakers in photoshop to a more subdued one (I’m thinking maroon/burgundy) and then also the words of ‘goal’ to match…
or maybe if you make ‘goal goal goal’ with lower opacity so it’s more backgroundy rather than headliney and then make ‘smash that goal’ box larger/bolder so that is the main text you read??

I think it’s the way the boy is dressed - any way to switch the boy and see how it looks?

thanks everyone! will try the tzitzis…

and @zaksahuva1 what should i change it with?

I would suggest like zaksahuva1 to change the pants to long navy pants

@adinacahn how do i do that?

either find a similar pose picture and replace the legs
Or you can remove the pants with the lasso tools and then redraw above them in navy and use the dodge and burn to create creases and folds

Love this ad! Really bold! I definitely agree that it’s the boys pants, sneakers that makes it look “unjewish”. Good luck in changing it! :slight_smile:

Really nice! The only thing I would change is to add tzitis and long pants like everyone already mentioned.

Lol so what is ‘Jewish’ sneakers😂

It looks great! I think i would change it to boys feet with long pants-Right now looks like a big man athlete type of feet :wink:

I would also but as long as the client won’t pay for a photographer to get the perfect image I can only work with what I can find online…

Btw I would use younger looking feet but when I did the client said it looked too young - he wanted this…

Love it! Maybe you can give the kid black long pants?

everyone is telling me the same thing! but how can i take a boy out of a picture and change his pants?? :joy:

You can definitely add on to the shorts in photoshop…

Or you can use these kind of legs and photoshop color so it looks more realistic…! Like obviously dont use denim but it shouldnt be such a hard fix…


Any way to find a similar pic - it’s not really the shorts it’s also the shape of his leg - they are very muscular and look almost like a man - a boy with skinnier legs may automatically look more refined.
