Tone of voice
Always write in a way you would tell a story. Be warm and inspiring, include adjectives that brings a certain flavour to the cause you are writing for.
Example:
Pier 42 – your choice of cocktails from the original ships – refreshed with a contemporary twist (words as refreshed and twist are often used when speaking of cocktails and beverages)
The Gym – Sporting a full-sized boxing ring and anything else that’ll get your blood pumping. (Sporting and get your blood pumping creates a vision of what you can expect to find at the gym)
Remember this when writing for Amerikalinjen:
People don’t always remember what you say or even what you do, but they always remember how you made them feel.
Photographic Style
Amerikalinjens photographic style is inspired by the American director Wes Anderson. Aim for symmetrical, clear and colorful photography.

Follow these example to make whatever you are making pop!
