Little confused!
I've decided that I would really like to go the Advertising route after I finish school. The problem is that I'm having difficulty pinpointing what kind of advertising I'd like to be involved with. I know that I don't have any artistic talent, so that's out of question. But I would really like to be one of the creative minds behind the actual catchy slogan creating, if you know what I mean. If you've ever seen What Women Want, then you know I'm talking about the job both Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt have. If anyone could tell me what this job is specifically called, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any advice given :)

I have gone to school for art for two years, and my last year, I took a 2D design class. This class had a lot of people that were looking into going into advertising. My advice would be to go to the art department at your school/college and ask what you can do to get into a job like that. Although you say you don't have artistic talent, you would probably be taking a lot of art classes because the classes mainly teach you how to use different colors and shapes and tints to make a "good" piece. My 2-D design teacher focused a lot on advertising and what makes a good advertisement. Mainly what colors, shapes, pictures, etc. attract different people. It's all about learning who you want to attract, and what these people might be looking for.
Hope this helps.

Well i dont know what the job is called but what you could do is go to someone that has that job or in the standards of doing it and ask them but you could also go to askjeeves.com or google.com or the search engine at the top bar of you computer when on the internet or if you have aim ask smarterchild-trix

Ah, yes, I know exactly what you mean. Most of the reviews of that film call them 'advertising executives', so I don't think that really helps you much.
Having done a quick serch on UCAS.co.uk, I have come up with a few courses you could try looking into:
Creative Advertising
Integrated Advertising
Media Advertising
Marketing Management
E-commerce Technologies
But I think your best bet is to talk to your careers advisor.
