Brief (in short)

1. Differentiate the MaritimeONE scholarships from scholarships offered by the other industries.
2. The printed advertisement is to be featured in Teenage magazine.

For this assignment, the school collaborated with the Singapore Maritime Foundation and made it an advertisement challenge. The goal of the advertisement was to generate greater awareness about the MaritimeONE scholarships among youth. Some points in the project brief included highlighting the various shore-based or seafaring opportunities on offer.
