Comp Art For Best Buy Pitch

Last month I was hired by Minneapolis ad agency Olson-Denali to work up some color comps for a pitch to Best Buy. They wanted to suggest some possible photography ideas built around a specific theme. The left third of each image was left open for insertion of text.

The deadline was tight—actual working turnaround was about 24 hours.

Eventually Best Buy decided to go another direction, but in this business that’s pretty common. It was still a lot of fun and I’m grateful to Olson-Denali for the opportunity.

I regularly get hired by ad agencies to create “comp art”—rough sketches (sometimes color, sometimes not) designed to help them pitch their ideas to their clients. My artwork has been presented to clients such as Walmart, Target, Best Buy, 3M, and Chef Boyardee. Examples are of course posted on my website. Now you can also download selected samples of my comp art as a PDF. If you need something to print out and bring to a meeting, or if you want something simple to email to a colleague, this should fill the bill. One more way I’m trying to make life just a little easier for my potential clients.
