Is this a good idea?

advert

My friend wants me to do an ad for her new clothing store. She's on a tight budget. We can't hire a model or a professional photographer. So I'm trying to find a creative way-out. How do you find this idea?

This is just a draft. I will use a stock-photo of a model later, not a celebrity.

This idea is ok but will only be as good as your photoshop skills. Getting rid of the background will be a start.

you can make cut outs of actual size models and place them in public to advertise the store...

Thx for your comments guys. Do you think it's legal to scan covers of actual magazines?

i'm 99% sure it's illegal to reproduce (scan) their work and material without their permission. But you don't even need to do that. Find images that are not copyrighted and simply add magazine cover-like text over the image. Shouldn't be that hard.

This idea is nice. Try to place this model inbetween a group of ordinary girls

Idea is nice. If this model is in a group of ordinary models it will be more nice

Nice idea. You can always get those free images from Deviant Art.

It's a good effort and the concept "An Out of a magazine look" is cool. Maybe try keeping some fashion magazines scattered in the background instead of the scene now appearing and the cutout should stand out louder than the magazines.
