Since I created an advertisement for a piece of stereo equipment, I used katakana because it may help to enhance a "cutting edge" or "modern" image. Being up-to-date is always a big selling point for appliances and things like that, I think. There are also a lot of music-related words which seem to be commonly written in katakana, so using these words was less of an intentional choice and more of a natural thing.

Very good work! The upper part of the advertisement actually reminds me of the advertisement of "Mac Pro". Your us of color in the background makes it look very fancy and high-end. I think this is already what a real native Japanese advertisement would look like.
ReplyDeleteムイクさん、I really like your advertisement. The use of all three types of Japanese writing appears very authentic and also shows that you're comfortable using them. The use of katakana as opposed to hiragana or kanji in specifica places does a good job of modernizing the advertisement as well. The katakana as onomatopoeia is a nice touch as well. It looks like a real advertisement. Good job!
ReplyDeleteI think it is very good idea and surly Katakana sometimes takes very important role to emphasize or fascinate the words.
ReplyDeleteIs it easy for you to write katakana than any other types of Japanese ??
Take care.
