This urban landscape billboard mockup is a quick way to show an ad campaign without a photo shoot.
Good pick for ad agencies, students pitching campaigns or anyone putting together a portfolio. Tip: match the brightness of your design to the scene; a very bright graphic in a shaded spot looks pasted in.
Agencies use scenes like this in pitch decks, where a realistic placement often sells the idea more than the artwork alone. Combine it with a poster or bus stop ad to show the campaign across several placements.
Mockups Design created this one and hosts the download on their own site, so you always get the latest version straight from the source.
