Old School Wrestling (OSW)
On the internet, there is no shortage of resources for fans of professional wrestling. There is a majority that are distinctly American in their perspective, often marred by nostalgia. Save for the UK’s WrestletalkTV, the viewpoint of wrestling fans outside of the US is minimal. Fortunately, …

This is by far my favorite magazine. It focuses on topics that range from healthy eating and stress reduction to cooking to relationships to spirituality. It has a new age bend to it, but it is never heavy handed with any specific type of philosophy. Rather, …
Grazia Womens Magazine
Grazia is one of my favourite magazines as it is mostly about fashion, but not in the glossy, very arty way that Vogue does it. Grazia seems to make fashion more accessible an down to earth by featuring a lot of candid, paparazzi photos of stylish celebrities, not …

Breitling watches (magazine ad)
This is a prime example of companies milking the popularity of Hollywood celebrities. For this ad, John Travolta was chosen. The people behind the ad were probably sitting around the table discussing how to approach the commercial. And they said: “Hmmm what did John Travolta …

Active Naturals by Aveeno (magazine ad)

Make-A-Wish Foundation (magazine ad)
