Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2011 in the subject Communications - Public Relations, Advertising, Marketing, Social Media, grade: 1.1, , course: Advertising Design Communication, language: English, abstract: Advertising is all about getting attention. One of the best ways of getting attention through advertising is adding humour. When employed correctly, the power of humour is undeniable.Professional Advertising (N/A) believes that '[t]he best ways to get attention with advertising are with strong visuals, sex, powerful headlines, and humour.'From all the types of advertising appeals, such as Emotional, Rational, Sex, Scarcity and Humour, '[h]umour can be an excellent tool to catch the viewer's attention and help in achieving instant recall which can work well for the sale of the product. Humour can be used effectively when it is related to some benefit that the customer can derive without which the joke might overpower the message' (Ashwini, 2009). Humour is most effective when it is used to reinforce an existing message, rather than simply adding to it.Catanescu & Tom (2001) maintain that '[a]s previous research has revealed. [their] study shows that humour is used more frequently in television commercials than print advertisements' and so it is with this acumen that generates the focus on television commercials. What humour achieves exactly can differ from one advertiser to the next, but its primary function seems to be about getting attention, regardless if it is good or bad attention.According to a 1993 Journal of Marketing study that examined multinational effects of humour on advertising, 'humour is more likely to enhance recall, evaluation, and purchase intention when the humorous message coincides with ad objectives, is well-integrated with those objectives, and is viewed as appropriate for the product category. Under such circumstances, humorous advertising is more likely to secure audience attention, increase memorability, overcome sales resistance, and enhance message persuasiveness' (Dubois, 2010).

The Australian Organ and Tissue Authority's chief executive Karen Murphy has said that 'families need to know each other's wishes about organ and tissue donation, because even if you are registered as a donor, your next of kin is still asked to give consent for donation to take place' (The Border Watch, 2009). 'DonateLife is the new brand and name for the national network of organ donor agencies that will deliver the message that every Australian has the potential to save lives' (The Border Watch, 2009). Funded by The Organ and Tissue Authority, DonateLife offers educational services, donor family support, donor/recipient correspondence and also run Australian Organ Donor Awareness Week, the largest public awareness campaign in Australia associated with organ and tissue donation for transplantation (DonateLife, 2009). The Australian Organ Donor Awareness Week's aims are to 'raise donation rates in Australia by focusing on the pressing need for organ and tissue donation, encourage families to discuss their wishes, [highlight] the success of organ transplantation in Australia; and, finally, promote the registration of consent on the Australian Organ Donor Register' (Parry, 2007, p.137).You can watch the television commercial project here: youtu.be/uaH6sIIb6jQ.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Communications - Public Relations, Advertising, Marketing, Social Media, grade: 1.1, Central Queensland University, course: Advertising Design Communication, language: English, abstract: It is of no contention that the air-brushing of models in advertisements has been a central issue amongst body image advocates. Re-touching images of people has created problems for body-conscience individuals as well as advertisers although it is questionable whether the significance of the problems has yet outweighed the advantages of the practice. Part of the ethical responsibility of designers is to be aware of the effects their designs have on people, but there may be times when designers do not have a choice. Advertisers respond to the market in a supply-and-demand manner and will continue to deliver images that are successful, or more aptly recognised: as profitable.Design critic Alice Rawsthorn categorises 'most graphic design . as 'quietly good design', (that is, we never) really stop and look at it in the way that we might stop and look at a painting or a work of art. We absorb the messages, but only rarely take time to look at how the message has been constructed. In other words, we gulp the wine, but never look at the glass' (Shaughnessy, 2008). It is interesting that the glass that delivers images of people in particular gains so much attention.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2015 in the subject Tourism - Miscellaneous, grade: 1.1, Central Queensland University, course: Cultural Entrepreneurship, language: English, abstract: Globalisation has meant that the offerings of many destinations are increasingly homogenous.Branding provides a way of creating a unique identity through relationship building and emotional appeal, rather than differentiation on the basis of functional qualities.While destination branding draws on principals from product marketing there are some important differences.This is a more obvious requirement in some sectors, such as tourism, where countries develop hospitality industries and infrastructure such as convenient airport facilities. However, such marketing concepts increasingly apply to countries as a whole.Nearly all successful communities can quickly identify their 'brand.' They draw on their comparative advantages to find ways of encouraging growth by attracting the people, businesses, education service and investment they need.(Hulsbosch, 2011)Hulsbosch (2011) suggests acting and thinking globally as one of his destination branding tips, advising that brand identity and all related promotional activities must appeal across cultural groups.Cultural tourism gives visitors the opportunity to understand and appreciate the essential character of a place and its culture as a whole, including:-History-People and their lifestyle -Cultural diversity-Arts and architecture-Food, wine and other local produce(Foo & Rossetto, 1998, p.63).

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Communications - Miscellaneous, grade: 1.5, Central Queensland University, course: Creative Arts Administration, language: English, abstract: Digitization has impacted the creative arts since its inception and has even driven most sectors to where they stand today. Digitization is the conversion of information to a digital or binary format so that it may be processed by a computing device, making it easier to access, share and preserve (Whatis, N/A). The digitization of information enriches its quality, has made it possible to store in compact forms and enables it to be shared instantly. Advertising can more easily reach the masses and digital selves borderline immortality. Advancements in technology have seen the entertainment industry thrive in spite of also causing damage to sales. Computer Generated Imagery (CGI) has ushered in a new era of deception, warping reality and even creating new ones. In filmmaking, the line between imagination and reality has all but disappeared. Advertising can at times create controversy over what is an acceptable level of illusion. Even when informed, however, our vulnerability to accepting distorted realities seems to endure.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Research Paper from the year 2011 in the subject Communications - Public Relations, Advertising, Marketing, Social Media, grade: 1.6, Central Queensland University, course: Advertising Design Communication, language: English, comment: Grade has been converted from Australian (32/40) to German (1.6) , abstract: As far as movie advertising goes, official web sites have become a crucial tool for advertising upcoming and existing films. Mabry & Porter (2010) reports a relatively important and statistically significant relationship between web site traffic and box office revenue . Movie trailers have been a vital part of the advertising process, appearing very early on - around 1912 - although they did not become standard for several years (Film Reference, N/A). Of some 10-billion videos watched on line annually, movie trailers rank 3, after news and user-created video. With such easy and instant access to them, these increasingly popular cinematic morsels are being devoured by moviegoers and served up with serious consideration by the industry that sometimes spends sums equivalent to a third world country s annual budget to concoct them (Merin, 2008). According to a study by Microsoft Advertising and 20th Century Fox, [o]nline film advertising should play a growing role in the marketing of movie releases. Online film advertising [is] particularly effective at presenting film trailers in a positive environment and broadening [the advertiser s] reach beyond the cinema environment. Trailers were confirmed as the single most influential element in consumers decision to view a film (Microsoft Advertising, 2009). Snell (2009) believes that movies are a large part of the entertainment industry and that in recent years their websites have become increasingly critical to their overall success .

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Sociology - Individual, Groups, Society, grade: 1.1, Central Queensland University, course: Creative Arts Administration, language: English, abstract: Group decision-making is a process where an assembly of people convene to analyse problems or situations, evaluate alternative actions and reach solutions. Decisions may concern the judgement of a particular course of action, how best to solve a problem or the determination of the direction or magnitude of work ahead performed by teams or individuals. Deciding the best course of action can range in perplexity, depending on the effectiveness of how that group functions, the quality of alternatives that are generated, the amount of access to correct and adequate information and their understanding of the problem.Where time is of the essence and also befits the personification of money, it is customary for a business or organisation to engage in Group Decision-Making processes in the attempt to effectively and efficiently solve problems. Though some methods are more time-consuming some others. The group leader usually reserves judgement on which method is used in the Group Decision-Making process, because if one assembled a group to make a decision on what method should be used, what method would one use to decide And so on one would ramble in an infinite loop. And if the group ever assembled without a leader, who's idea was it for the group to assemble in the first instance So the first advantage or disadvantage of a group decision would be how effective its leader is in managing the process, which can either be a solution in itself or it can be a problem. Though the greatest problem of all seems to be time.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2013 in the subject Communications - Theories, Models, Terms and Definitions, grade: 1.3, Central Queensland University, course: Applied Communication Arts, language: English, abstract: The Knowledge Gap Theory of Communication is primarily concerned with the unequal distribution of information throughout society and the correlating access to knowledge pertaining to socioeconomic status. The Knowledge Gap Hypothesis was first proposed in 1970 by three University of Minnesota researchers: Phillip J. Tichenor, then Associate Professor of Journalism and Mass Communication, George A. Donohue, Professor of Sociology, and Clarice N. Olien, Instructor in Sociology (Yoo Ri & Southwell, N/A). The hypothesis explains that there is a resulting divide between people of lower and higher socioeconomic status 'as the infusion of mass media information into a social system increases, higher socioeconomic-status segments tend to acquire this information faster than lower socioeconomic-status population segments so that the gap in knowledge between the two tends to increase rather than decrease' (Tichenor, Donohue, and Olien, 1970, p159-160). The resulting speed at which people are able to access tradition mass-media compared to modern systems may be surprisingly congruent when underlying education is taken into consideration.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2009 in the subject Communications - Miscellaneous, grade: 1.3, Central Queensland University, course: Creative Industries, language: English, abstract: Censorship can be a grey area and that is usually because what is under contention of being censored is far from black and white. The ramifications of this contention is of most interest to the Creative Industries as it may have a direct effect on the kind of content that governing bodies allow to be distributed, which in turn affects commercial viability and therefore production. There are the artists who may produce art for art's sake, though there remains an indeterminate amount seeking remuneration from their efforts through sales and exhibitions. When their work or part of their work is suddenly deemed inappropriate by the law, the resulting controversy often results in publicity, a concept Art Photographer Bill Henson is no stranger to.It is somewhat difficult to comprehend who or what is controlling the definition of art and its place in the cultural life of Australia. The manifestation of governmental and public opinion surrounding specific case studies can distinguish publicity from the constant reconstruction of culture, apropos the importance of the re-educating of governing bodies upholding the opinion of the public by the public themselves. Representing a fair spectrum, we have the publicly denounced work of Bill Henson and arguably one of the most controversial films of the decade, Ken Park, with its positive appraisal fiercely contesting only recently updated censorship laws. The battleground for these fights for cultural integrity is the media, the most public and least bias of course being the internet, though the internet in Australia is currently in the process of becoming censored itself! As though product from the creative industries were not being censored enough, the almost alarming concern the government is so compassionately exhibiting for all of our welfare may just be impacting industries in more ways than just what is appropriate to expose to a morally deteriorating or protection-dependant public.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2011 in the subject Communications - Public Relations, Advertising, Marketing, Social Media, grade: 1.2, Central Queensland University, course: Creative Arts Administration, language: English, abstract: The American Marketing Association (AMA) defines a brand as a 'name, term, sign, symbol or design' intended to identify and differentiate them from competitors (Lake, N/A). Walter Landor, one of the greats of the advertising industry, said 'simply put, a brand is a promise. By identifying and authenticating a product or service it delivers a pledge of satisfaction and quality' (Nelson, 2008). Bates (N/A) believes that the best definition is that a 'brand is a collection of perceptions in the mind of the consumer'. This definition clearly distinguishes that a brand is very different from a product or service.A brand is intangible and exists in the mind of the consumer (Bates, N/A).Social media has turned the ways in which the brand interacts with the customer on its head. With close to 2 billion internet users worldwide, 126 million blogs, 12 billion videos viewed per month in the US alone, (Thomas, 2009), 2 billion tweets on Twitter per month and 500 million people on Facebook (Van Grove, 2010), the face of the consumer may remain essentially the same but the way in which they interact with brands has changed dramatically.It seems brands are now impacted by the creative arts, the ones more specifically known as social media sites, blogging and user-content creation leading to direct consumer participation in the modification of brand identity. The creative arts and technology have allowed the consumer to have their say heard by an audience, to rapidly share information and empowered brand-users to gain control over how a brand is perceived, their reputation, product quality control and even direction. Amidst the impact of these creative arts, brands now ignore their customers at their peril.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Design (Industry, Graphics, Fashion), grade: 1.1, Central Queensland University, course: Brand Image Design, language: English, abstract: Aesthetics are an integral part of marketing communications, influencing the design of logos, advertising, atmospherics and package design. The strategic management of brand image design is essential to developing and implementing a corporate or brand identity. According to Simonson & Schmitt (1997), aesthetics can create tangible value for an organization because:-aesthetics creates consumer loyalty-aesthetics allows for premium pricing-aesthetics cuts through information clutter, increasing the memorability of the visual marks of the company, which in turn increases its chance of selection at the point of purchase-aesthetics affords protection from competitive attacks-aesthetics can save costs and increase productivity, as employees and outside suppliers need to spend less time in creating new layouts and messagesDavid Garvin's (1987) book, the Eight Dimensions of Product Quality, consists of performance, features, reliability, conformance, durability, serviceability, aesthetics and perceived quality. The concept defines aesthetics as 'the subjective dimension indicating the kind of response a user has to a product. It represents the individual's personal preference' (Karch, 2008).Aesthetics management should begin with a thorough status quo analysis of every aspect of a company or brand's visual and sensory identity. The objective of this analysis is to get a clear understanding of the identity that the organisation wants to project for itself and its brands in its aesthetic output (its corporate expressions) and how customers perceive the organisation's current aesthetic output (customer impressions).(Simonson & Schmitt, 1997, p.45.)Brand Identity focuses on the following attributes of aesthetics, outlined by Friedlander (2012):-Colours-Fonts-Logos-Images-Layout.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Company formation, Business Plans, grade: 1.6, Central Queensland University, course: Cultural Entrepreneurship, language: English, abstract: For generations, Zen philosophy has taught the importance of finding tranquillity inside yourself instead of foolishly seeking it in the world around you. One of the most profound teachings from this philosophy, and probably one that is most relevant to the entrepreneur, is that of ignoring doctrine and listening to your gut instinct. (Butt, 2014a)Google (N/A) defines entrepreneur as 'a person who organizes and operates a business or businesses, taking on greater than normal financial risks in order to do so', from the French 'entreprendre', meaning to 'undertake' and 'go between'. Branagan (2003) outlines several critical success factors:-being able to make connections and spot opportunity-taking a creative approach to problem solving-being able to cultivate networks of appropriate contacts-being able to persuade, inspire and motivate others through enhanced vision-the ability to take calculated risks and having the nerve to work outside convention-the ability to overcome rejection and failure-keeping pace with technology and innovation-an understanding of business strategies and tacticsIt is the spirit of undertaking something novel and innovative; in some sense either pushing forward with avant-garde activities, or combining elements from previous concepts for new markets or audiences. There are many entrepreneurs within the arts world who do just this, acting as go-betweens for artists and clients, or audiences. Furthermore, the common preoccupation with originality, implementing ideas and making progress, held by many artists and arts consultants, is itself an entrepreneurial trait; translating vision into a creative act. From a contemporary and historical perspective, an entrepreneurial outlook has either inadvertently or intentionally ensured the successful progression of many very influential figures within both the commercial and non-commercial arts sectors.(Branagan, 2003).

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2009 in the subject Sociology - Media, Art, Music, grade: 1.1, Central Queensland University, course: Media Relations in Arts Administration, language: English, abstract: It can be quite difficult to source examples of effective crisis strategies in creative enterprise. Companies may be small, they may not have product that if defective could bring harm to the masses, inciting a recall, or even if a crisis occurred, would necessarily lead to financial ruin or impact enough jobs as to be considered newsworthy. Essentially, being portrayed negatively in the media is what is considered a 'crisis' rather than whatever was at fault in the first instance. This is undoubtedly due to the unpredictability of what character-revealing hue the media may taint their brush with when presented the opportunity to paint a picture of whatever business has managed the misfortune of unintentionally wandering into the spotlight. Even though being in the spotlight can be very good for business, a crisis is when a business finds itself in there for the wrong reasons.The biggest business there is in creative enterprise is of course actors. Their sheer bankability provides millions of dollars and hundreds of jobs for each movie they secure, so much can be at stake if their reputation goes down and at the wrong time. When analysing public image and crisis management strategies, the business of being one person follows the same principles of those strategies being employed by companies and corporations because they are in themselves a brand. If a celebrity does not behave accordingly when a crisis occurs, especially when it is usually their behaviour that has caused the crisis, devastating consequences can ensue. They employ publicists just as companies procure PR personnel - for the management of crises and to nudge their image in the right direction, or at times, drag it kicking and screaming. Many act on their own volition, which can be very precarious if they were a big company. But celebrities are probably the easiest for the public to forgive, as after all it is their job to entertain and a public discretion is hardly akin to a situation such as a large toy manufacturer producing their latest line of product which has just caused several child fatalities due to toxic parts. The methods they employ during scandals can be measured by textbook crisis management procedures on a smaller scale humanly while generally on a much larger scale publically.
