1. DUE WED SEPTEMBER 16,2020
Please provide an image or URL per the instructions. Audience,
Marketing Goals, Communication Objectives -- You didn't
provide the proposed audience for the ad. Also, you didn't
identify clearly the proposed marketing and communication
goals. This is a critical component of the assignment in that
without this, you can't tie in the evaluations and justify the
recommendations. Be sure to consider and discuss the
marketing goals for the ad. Does the brand seem to want higher
sales revenue? Higher sales volume? Are they breaking into a
new market? Are they trying to solidify their current market?
When you provide the communication goals of the ad, be
specific. Is the ad made to inform? If so, of what? To remind?
To persuade? To connect? Be specific. For whom is the ad
created? Is there a different purpose for each audience? Even
though you may not know for certain, it's helpful to have this
clearly in mind as you evaluate the various design elements and
their usage/portrayal. Descriptions Your description needs
more focus on visual imagery design elements. From the
readings, you should have been able to identify a number of
design elements (color, line, background, texture, framing,
visual hierarchy, contrast, hue, saturation, etc.) that would be
relevant to this ad. Then, spend more time describing the ad in
terms of the design elements. As noted in the template (in bold
and italics near the top), "you should write at least several
sentences to a full paragraph for each cell entry." Evaluations
Provide an evaluation of the design element from your own
perspective. There will be no need to cite research (particularly
academic research that is not focused on design elements) in
any of these evaluations. This is your thoughts on how the
elements, as portrayed, will help or hinder the achievement of
the marketing and communication goals. Recommendations
You have some interesting recommendations, but they need to
be justified by explaining how changes to some aspect of the

2. elements would result in better communication and a higher
likelihood of meeting the marketing and communication goals.

When English author Edward Bulwer-Lytton wrote in 1839 that
"the pen is mightier than the sword," it's doubtful he knew that
keyboards, memes, GIFs, emojis, YouTube comments, tweets,
etc. would overtake pens via keyboards, smart phones, thumb-
typing, swiping, and voice-to-text. Nevertheless, his point is
still valid today (talk about evergreen marketing
communication).
The written word is indeed powerful. And for marketers, it's a
great way to communicate, particularly in a static environment
where auditory voice isn't technologically available. Static
written text can be used to present information about a product,
brand, organization, and/person in an effort to achieve the
classic marketing communication goals such as informing,
reminding, persuading, and connecting.
Good marketers know, however, that it's not just the words you
use, but how you use them. When we assess static text, we have
to assess it from several perspectives: (1) its imagery, (2) its
content, and (3) its rhetorical value. We do this always within
the
context
of the communication and hopefully with knowledge of the
intent
of the communicator and the
audience
for which it's intended.

3. Imagery
- The imagery of static text refers to how it looks from a visual
design perspective. This includes the font type, letter size,
spacing (
kearning, word spacing, leading (Links to an external site.)
), color, background, styling, and virtually any other elements
of visual design.
Content
- Text content refers to what is said. What are the words being
used? How much text is present? What is the information
contained within the text? Content can be presented in a variety
of writing styles, tones, voices, etc., as well as in a variety of
visual imagery representations.
Rhetorical Value
- Rhetoric is the study of writing (and speaking) effectively,
typically as a means of persuasive communication. Those who
examine the rhetorical value of written work often refer to
ethos
,
logos
, and
pathos
(go back and study Aristotle for more on this).
Ethos
relies on the credibility or authority of the writer.
Logos
uses facts and figures to appeal to the logic and reasoning of
the audience.
Pathos
uses passion and storytelling to appeal to the emotions of the
audience.
As you work through the element assessment for the static text

4. format, consider at least one element from each of imagery,
content, and rhetorical value in order to get a more complete
understanding of how your target ad meets its goals of
informing, reminding, persuading, and/or connecting.

Remember!
Be sure to focus your Element Assessment only on the
static text
portion of the ad. The "marketing communication" must be
designed to communicate a message for a particular brand,
product, organization/company, etc., and must use static text as
the primary communication format. If a list of ads is provided,
be sure to select your ad from the list.
