Parent Teacher Open House 2013

Creative Center Welcomes Parents on Campus

Every year, the Creative Center invites parents and family members of our current student body to visit the college. Family and friends take a couple of hours to get to know the faculty and staff and see what their student has been up to for the last several months. We also offer an opportunity to learn more about the BFA program and get a head start on the FAFSA. This year was no different, and over 50 people came to celebrate our students and their artistic accomplishments.
 

Featured Project: Integrated Campaigns

 
In their last advertising course, students draw a client from a hat. The students are then charged to create an event, sponsored by their client. Using this fictional event, they design an integrated campaign, which uses the same campaign idea over multiple media. For this project, students must use a minimum of three different media, and they must have a minimum of five pieces in the campaign. 
 
Below are three samples of integrated campaigns, created by current CC students. Top to bottom:
 
Jordan Adkisson - graduate of Waverly HS in Waverly, NE
Sarah Pfeifer - graduate of Millard South HS in Omaha, NE
Emmily Petersen - graduate of Fremont Senior HS in Fremont, NE
