7. evaluation
Benjamin evaluated his production process for creating propaganda posters and a trailer for a video game. His research included a survey that provided audience feedback, but he only interviewed two people qualitatively. For planning, he analyzed similar trailers but did not do extensive planning. He felt he managed his time well by focusing on poster and trailer creation. Technical weaknesses included the logo not matching the color scheme. Peer feedback praised the professional quality but noted the trailer did not specify what it advertised and the intro was too long. Benjamin agreed the trailer intro needed reducing and disagreed that more dogfights should be added to the trailer.

The final exam will test students' understanding of key concepts covered throughout the course. These include defining rhetoric and digital rhetoric, conducting rhetorical analyses, understanding aura, assemblage, Kairos, semiotics, principles of new media like the five principles and Helvetica as the juggerfont. Students should review their notes on the readings and activities with a focus on rhetorical terminology like ethos, pathos, logos, style, audience, purpose, context, metaphor, story, delivery, and culture. The instructor emphasizes that the goal is to assess comprehension rather than trick students, and that reviewing the materials provided should sufficiently prepare them.

The document contains questions from an instructor asking students to reflect on their online summer class experience, including their favorite and least favorite parts, whether they got enough interaction, if they liked major assignments due at the end rather than throughout, what they wish they covered more, how they would describe the class in gaming terms such as a game or quest, and what advice they would give to an adventurer going on a quest from the instructor.
211 finalreview
The document provides a review for a final exam in an IMS 211 course. It lists several topics students should focus on studying, including key concepts and theories from readings, examples used in assignments, and games played in class. Students are advised to thoroughly review the material posted by Dr. Phill online as well as questions of the day. The exam will likely include questions testing knowledge of readings, concepts learned through games, and cases requiring critical thinking. Tips are provided on focusing study time, using resources during the exam, avoiding overthinking questions, and being specific in essay answers.
Week 2
This document provides an overview of rhetorical analysis and key concepts related to analyzing any text. It discusses Aristotle's definition of rhetoric as observing means of persuasion. Rhetorical analysis involves reading and critiquing a text while understanding its context and persuasive techniques. Key aspects that should be analyzed include ethos, pathos, logos, kairos, style, audience, purpose, context, metaphor, story, delivery, and culture. Examples are provided of analyzing a movie poster to demonstrate these concepts. Basic principles of design such as contrast, repetition, alignment, and proximity are also explained. Readers are then asked to redesign a poorly designed event flyer using these analytical and design skills.
Brief Video Game History
The first video game was created in 1958 and was called Tennis for Two. In the 1970s, Atari created early arcade games like Computer Space and Pong, popularizing the video game industry. In the 1980s, Nintendo launched the NES console and games like Super Mario Bros, The Legend of Zelda, and Metroid, starting the console wars between Nintendo, Sega, and others. World of Warcraft's success in 2004 demonstrated the popularity of online and PC gaming. The mobile gaming industry also grew significantly in the late 2000s with the rise of smartphones.
Dungeons & Dragons history
Dungeons & Dragons, conceived by Gary Gygax as an extension of his wargaming hobby to include fantasy elements, became one of the first role-playing games and an inspiration for many video games. Starting as a supplement for his wargames called Chainmail, Gygax added magical elements to engage players. With friend Dave Arneson, they expanded on this, forming the company Tactical Studies Rules to publish the seminal title Dungeons & Dragons in 1974. D&D went on to huge commercial success but also moral panics over its occult themes before being acquired by Wizards of the Coast and then Hasbro, who continue publishing new editions today.
Rhetoric of Advertising
Advertisements use visual rhetoric to convey messages and influence consumers. Imagery, color, layout, and other design elements all work together to appeal to audiences on an emotional level and shape perceptions. How an ad presents itself visually impacts what impressions it makes and what actions it inspires in viewers.
Logos
The document discusses logos and their purpose from a rhetorical perspective. It emphasizes that logos must represent an organization or person completely and that decisions about logos must be precise and grounded rhetorically. It then lists 10 rules for effective logos, such as answering who, what and why, identifying rather than explaining, and designing for longevity and a variety of media. The document notes that personal logos can be challenging but that the key is understanding the occasion rhetorically and infusing unique personality elements. It stresses the importance of evoking feeling with a personal logo.
411 Personal Logo PowerPoint
This document contains notes from a class discussing logo design. It includes:
1) An assignment for students to email the instructor about their recent group project, describing what tasks each member completed, how well they worked as a group and individually, and how they managed their time.
2) A reminder that tags for another assignment are due on Thursday and should include a photo of the tag and where it was distributed.
3) A discussion of logo design principles, including the "10 logo rules" and considerations for personal logos like representing one's personality and audience.
4) An upcoming in-class activity where students will use Photoshop to mock up web pages based on sites they like.

Digital Rhetoric, September 23, 2014
- 2. Today: 1)Reminders 2)Type stuff 3)Font stuff 4)For Thursday: Work Time
- 3. Type: some videos to get us started I want to start us out today with a few videos to give us a little bit of a transition into talking about fonts and typography.
- 8. Some Font Fun And here are some fun sites we can tinker around with just a bit, to show you that type, like life, can be fun times.
- 14. How to get nifty fonts You might notice that most computers– even the ones here in the super-slick design-minded labs– don’t have a huge selection of fonts. This can put you at a disadvantage as a creator. But not to worry. Fonts are out there. Let me show you a few cool places to visit.
- 19. Head to the website to view the Typography Remix assignment.
- 20. EXAMPLES
- 33. Pro tip 1: no pictures means NO PICTURES.
- 34. Pro tip 2: short quotes are good. But super-short quotes are problematic.
- 35. Pro tip 3: while executing this assignment can be easy or complex, understanding the proper use of fonts and colors is CRITICAL.
- 36. Pro tip 4: typing a quote from Harry Potter in the Harry Potter font is not an automatic win.
- 37. Pro tip 5: remember with careful design less is sometimes more.
- 38. Due to a death in the family, I will not be here Thursday. But… we soldier on. I will be available via email if you need me.
- 39. On Thursday, by 11:59 pm, I want you to email me the quote you want to use for your typography remix. Also keep in mind that we have a rhetorical analysis and a rough draft due on October 2nd.
