Xbox photo ads





These are xbox pictures I have made for my ad about xbox 360. It is a photoshop project I made about a product I chose. I made these pictures by taking pictures with a camera and editing them in Photoshop and I gave them quotes to help illustrate my ideas and why I made these pictures.
