...Synopsis of Article: Unit 4 discusses building strong brands, in this week’s article Phillips, McQuarrie, and Griffin (2014) discusses their research on visual brand identity (VBI) with art directors and several theories utilized to select and assemble them into an ad campaign (The face of…). Visual brand identity allows marketers to take a holistic approach to feel and view the company’s brand as consumers view it. The pair also states that art directors search for visual elements in their brands to make them stand out from the competition and design an advertising campaign based on what has been found. Furthermore, brand communication in this current day and age has become more visual than any other marketing form. It can be completed in any phase of the product’s production and provides unique aspects to the brand that focus on the image that the physical components (Phillips, McQuarrie, & Griffin, 2014).

...Career Research Paper I have designed this assignment as a step by step guide to walk my students through the research process. Of course, you may adjust it as you feel is necessary according to the level of students you are working with. This project explains in detail everything they need to research, as well as, giving them real world insight into what to expect in a career in terms of education, job duties and responsibilities and income. I begin by having them take a reality check quiz on the Jump Start Coalition website. This little quiz helps them determine how much money they will need to earn in order to live the lifestyle they would like to have. This income amount in turn helps open their eyes to the type of job necessary to achieve that income and what amount of education is involved. It was a real wake up call for many of my students. In this package I have also included a grading rubric for the project and a list of possible career choices for their assignment. Student Instructions You will be writing a research paper on a career chosen from the attached list. Think carefully about which career you chose to research. Read through these directions and the requirements for this assignment BEFORE making your choice. Materials needed for this project - ---note cards (preferably 3x5 lined) ---folder with pockets to keep all research materials in ---access to internet and reference books A.

...Artists Name Title Unit Code Introduction Artist refers to broad spectrum wide ranging word that covers activities related to creative art, demonstrating art, and practicing art. Artistic works by the African American artists have played a great role in revolutionizing the scene of the American culture displayed to the outside world. Becoming an artist is an intensive process requiring talent and social recognition through provision of social support. In the early ages, artists in America were selected basing on their race. However, the beginning of the 19th century saw the establishment of Negro movement that advocated for social recognition of the black artists in America. This provided the artists with a platform for expressing their talents through music, writings, and visual artworks on issues related to social, political, and economic conditions facing the blacks in America. Therefore, this research paper will examine the life history of two famous African American artists in history. The analysis will consider their early lives, education backgrounds and their contributions that led to their social recognition. The research will end with the comparison of the two personalities and come up with a conclusion. The two personalities examined in the research paper are Henry Ossawa Tanner, and Romare Bearden.

Cinema opens windows into multiple worlds; the study of film provides the tools with which to explore and understand these worlds. For New Zealand actor Sam Neill, a long, lonely road was an essential image in the landscape of New Zealand filmmaking when he co-directed Cinema of Unease in 1996 with filmmaker Judy Rymer. Over the years talented scriptwriters, directors and producers have travelled this road. Today New Zealand cinema has moved far from its uneasy beginnings. It has become an international thoroughfare where the cinemas of the world, including Hollywood and Bollywood, come to tell stories using New Zealand’s production and post-production facilities, employing local actors, crew and other technical staff. The study of Film makes it possible to consider the diversity in New Zealand cinema and in all cinemas of the world. The disciplined approach to studying these cinemas allows students to better understand not only how cinema itself functions, but also how New Zealand cinema contributes to the global cinematic tapestry. play? How do filmmakers contribute to culture and influence societal attitudes? How can other disciplines, such as psychology, help us to better understand film?

The techniques to use to build curiosity was used in the process of solving this problem and two resolutions have to be found that can help improve the problem at hand, following a conclusion. “There are four stages to the creative process, which are searching for challenges, expressing the particular problem or issue, investigating it and producing a range of ideas” (Ruggiero, 2009,). The first stage is searching for challenges and it refers to the small issues or problems that people sometimes often overlook. This stage is about forming a habit of constantly searching for challenges, as stated in the University of Phoenix e-book the Art of thinking a person can only be in a response to challenges that you perceive. Expressing the problem or issue is the second stage and the objective is to find the best expression or problem that one would yield the most helpful ideas. A different expression opens different avenues of thought, it is best to consider as many expressions as possible. The third stage is investigating the problem or issue and it focuses on obtaining information necessary to deal effectively with the problem or issue. Individuals search their past experience and observations for information on the current problem at hand. The four stages are producing ideas, and these stage objectives...

His work with typography has landed him a few awards and honors; 1986, the Gutenberg Prize of the City of Mains (Germany); 1987, Medal of the Type Directors Club of New York; 1993, Officier de loordre des Arts et des Lettres (Paris); 1993, Grand Prix National des Arts Graphiques (France). (Wikipedia, Awards) Combining his Univers font, along with influences from the font Gill Sans, he created ‘Roissy,’ which ended up being used at the Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris, France. The company Linotype ended up renaming the font that he used to his last name – ‘Frutiger,’ and released it for the public to use in 1976. (Wikipedia, Work Summary) Frutiger attended college at the Zurich School of Arts and Crafts and was taught by two renowned professors, Alfred Willimann and Walter Kach. He then went on as a professor for ten years at the Ecole Estienne, and eight years at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Arts Decoratifs, in Paris. (Identifont, Adrian Frutiger) A lot of his works are used in both metal and photocomposition systems. His most recent work was in 2008, when he helped create a redesigned version of his Meridien font, which Linotype then released on his 80th birthday as ‘Frutiger Serif.’ (Identifont, Adrian Frutiger) The font that I have chosen for this research paper is called “Univers.” It was designed by Adrian Frutiger in 1954, and was published by Linotype in 1985.
