When we talk of advertisement, we also focus on the consumers of that advert and we want it to reach as far as possible for our businesses to reach as far as possible. So as I was walking near my campus, I saw this car adorned with eye catching advert and I directly said that this is going to be my subject because this powerful medium offers a unique blend of mobility, visibility and creative expression capturing the essence of modern advertising. By showcasing a car as a moving canvas, I highlight its potential as ad dynamic marketing tool reaching a wide audience on roads.
