Blog Entry # 4.5 -Design Brief(A)

I am going to design a Cereal box that advertises Pythagoras. The goal of this project is to attract people to buy our cereal. My target market is going to be teenagers around the age 12-17. A important element to keep in mind is the text. I want to make sure that the title and the slogan will attract teenagers attention. Since I am trying to attract teenagers then I will make sure that the background isn't too colorful.
