The document discusses social issue posters and what makes an effective poster. It notes that effective posters tell a story, can be read from a distance, are interesting and eye-catching, have a simple uncluttered design, use clear language and images logically, and summarize key points without excess detail. It provides examples of social issue posters that communicate a message, reveal worldwide issues, often call for a response or movement, and can address political, personal, racial, environmental or other topics through visuals and facts about the issue.
Moda, marca, consumi nella post-modernitàNino Lopez
I nuovi scenari delineatesi per l’evoluzione della società e lo sviluppo di nuove tecnologie pongono il problema di attualizzare e ridefinire i concetti di segmentazione e posizionamento, e ripensare l'attività del brand management nel suo complesso.
La tesi pone interrogativi sulle modalità con le quali intercettare i bisogni individuali, cercando di comprendere la direzione da intraprendere nella decodifica dei comportamenti d’acquisto.
Questo quadro concettuale è istanziato in ambito moda che rappresenta il territorio di elezione per la comprensione dei mutamenti sociali, economici e relazionali.
In 2009, Crocs was in big trouble. After sales took off in the mid-2000s, it struggled to keep up with demand, reaching $847 million in revenue in 2007. When production finally caught up, it went overboard, ending up with mountains of shoes and no one to buy them just as the economic downturn hit. That made the company lose $185 million in 2008, which drew shareholder lawsuits and auditors who said Crocs might not be able to pay off its debts.

Case Study Crocs: Revolutionizing an Industry’s Supply Chain Model for
Competitive Advantage
If the products sell extremely well, we will
build more in season, and will be back on the
shelves in a few weeks. And we’ll build even
more, and even more, and even more, in that
same season. We’re not going to wait with a
hot new product until next year, when hope-
fully the same trend is alive.
—Ronald Snyder, CEO of Crocs, Inc.1
On May 3, 2007, Crocs, Inc. released its results for the
first quarter of the year. The footwear company,
which had sold its first shoes in 2003, reported reve-
nues of $142 million for the quarter, more than three
times its sales for the first quarter of 2006. Net in-
come, at $0.61 per share was more than 17 percent
of sales, nearly four times higher than the previous
year.2 These results far exceeded market expecta-
tions, which had been for earnings of $0.49 per share
on $114 million of revenue.3 As part of the earnings
release, the company announced a two-for-one stock
split. Immediately after the announcement, the stock
price jumped 15 percent.
The growth and profitability of Crocs, which made
funky, brightly colored shoes using an extremely com-
fortable plastic material, had been astounding. Much
of this growth had been made possible by a highly
flexible supply chain which enabled the company to
build additional product to fulfill new orders quickly
within the selling season, allowing it to respond to un-
expectedly high demand—a capability that was previ-
ously unheard of in the footwear industry. This ability
to fulfill the needs of retailers also made the company
a very popular supplier to shoe sellers.
This success also raised questions about how
the company should grow in the future. Should it
vertically integrate or grow through product line
extension? Should it grow organically or through ac-
quisition? Would potential growth paths exploit
Crocs’ core competencies or defocus them?

The Iconography of Dissent and Global PoliticsDaniel Drache
EyeCons are highly valued in an age awash in ephemeral information, popular culture and celebrity personalities. They are visual shortcuts in our optic consciousness whose efficacy can be measured by the performativity and impact of their ideas on public opinion, their ability to emote anger or to force a reaction, and the durability of their message to outlast its birth event and inspire succeeding generations of activists.
Teaching the Dream: The Enduring Idea, Art, and the National Civil Rights MuseumJ S-C
This is a presentation I gave at the 2014 Tennessee Art Education Association conference in Memphis, TN. The conference was themed "We Can Dream." The presentation seeks to demonstrate how enduring ideas and essential questions connect classroom concepts to real-world experience to promote higher order thinking. The presentation also shares how my art education training has been essential in shaping the National Civil Rights Museum's educational materials for teachers. Also included are ways to incorporate civil rights history into art lessons.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.

When people are not satisfied with things the way they are, they sometimes protest, give attention to or try to persuade others to change the way they think, act, and/or deliberate. They work to change things by deconstructing, criticizing, protesting and exposing the elements and issues that affect the human condition. Ultimately, throughout the course of history, humans have reacted in diverse forms to affect social change. Consider the idea of a revolution. In political revolutions the old powers are overthrown and new people take over the government. In social revolutions the relationships between social classes change, or the population experiences the rise of new social classes or the expansion of existing classes. In economic revolutions wealth changes hands. There are also scientific, industrial, agricultural, artistic, and religious revolutions when old ideas are replaced or transformed into new ideas.
In many cultures and throughout time, artists have used their artworks to protest, bring attention to, and/or expose their ideas. Sometimes a painting, sculpture, or building can persuade just as well or better, than words can. The power of the visual is extraordinary!
Guernica is a painting by Pablo Picasso. It was created in response to the bombing of Guernica, Basque Country, by German and Italian warplanes at the behest of the Spanish Nationalist forces, on 26 April 1937, during the Spanish Civil War.
At about 4:30 on Monday, 26 April 1937, warplanes of the German Condor Legion, commanded by Colonel Wolfram von Richthofen, bombed Guernica for about two hours. Germany, at this time led by Hitler, had lent material support to the Nationalists and were using the war as an opportunity to test out new weapons and tactics. Later, intense aerial bombardment became a crucial preliminary step in the Blitzkrieg tactic
Guernica, the most ancient town of the Basque people and the centre of their cultural tradition, was completely destroyed yesterday afternoon by insurgent air raiders. The bombardment of this open town far behind the lines occupied precisely three hours and a quarter, during which a powerful fleet of aeroplanes consisting of three types of German types, Junkers and Heinkel bombers, did not cease unloading on the town bombs weighing from 1,000 lbs. downwards and, it is calculated, more than 3,000 two-pounder aluminium incendiary projectiles. The fighters, meanwhile, plunged low from above the centre of the town to machinegun those of the civilian population who had taken refuge in the fields.
Guernica was a quiet village. The nearest military target of any consequence was a factory on the outskirts of the town, which manufactured various war products. The factory went through the attack unscathed. Thus, the motivation of the bombing was clearly one of intimidation. Furthermore, a majority of the town's men were away as they were fighting on behalf of the Republicans. Thus, the town at the time of the bombing was populated mostly by women and children.
It includes many of the most important leaders of the Civil Rights Movement including Dr. and Mrs. Martin Luther King, Jr., Rosa Parks, and others. But it also includes thousands of ordinary citizens fighting for African American citizens’ right to vote. They marched from Selma, Alabama to the state capitol, Montgomery. Just over four months later, the 1965 Voting Rights Act was signed into law.
This photograph captures the solidarity, the power, the emotion, and the spirit of the time. The photographer photographed Martin Luther King, Jr. several times and won the 1969 Pulitzer Prize for his photo of Dr. King’s widow at his funeral.
Memphis sanitation workers, the majority of them African American, went out on strike on February 12, 1968, demanding recognition for their union, better wages, and safer working conditions after two trash handlers were killed by a malfunctioning garbage truck. As it dragged on through March, with the Memphis mayor refusing to negotiate, the strike gained national attention. As they marched, striking workers carried copies of a poster declaring “I AM A MAN,” a statement that recalled a question abolitionists posed more than 100 years earlier, “Am I not a man and a brother?”
Martin Luther King Jr. joined the cause, speaking to a crowd of 6,000 in late March and returning on April 3 to deliver one of his most famous speeches, “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop.” King placed the strike in a larger context, declaring, “The masses of people are rising up. And wherever they are assembled today, whether they are in Johannesburg, South Africa; Nairobi, Kenya; Accra, Honor King: End Racism! broadside, April 8, 1968. (Gilder Lehrman Collection)Ghana; New York City; Atlanta, Georgia; Jackson, Mississippi; or Memphis, Tennessee—the cry is always the same: ‘We want to be free.’”
King was assassinated at Memphis’s Lorraine Motel the next night, just one day before a massive rally was planned. On April 8, four days after King’s assassination, his widow, Coretta Scott King, led some 20,000 marchers through the streets of Memphis, holding copies of another poster that read, “HONOR KING: END RACISM!” The strike ended on April 16, with the city agreeing to union recognition and raises.

Pop artist, Andy Warhol, wasn’t particularly known for his serious artworks. However in this work, he employed his usual strategies of repetition and color that he used he did in his iconic works of Campbell’s Soup Cans and portraits of Marilyn Monroe to create and emotional and political impact. The photograph repeated in Warhol’s artwork is of police officers in Birmingham sicking attack dogs on a retreating black man.
Although some might argue that the repetition of the image desensitizes us, I think the repetition forces the viewer to keep looking and keep thinking about the subject. The addition of the colors, especially taking into consideration the symbolism of red, white, and blue, enhances the emotion and adds powerful commentary to the photos.
Questions to ask: What is happening in this picture? Why did the artist repeat this same image four times? What emotional effect does the repetition have? Does the repetition make you feel more angry about the actions in the photograph or does it desensitize you to the events? What does the black and white quality of the photograph remind you of? What was the artist saying by printing it in this way? Why did the artist choose these colors? What do these colors signify? What do you think the artist wanted to tell us by making this artwork? What did the artist want us to feel?
Choose an issue you care deeply about, and would want to try and do something about. This issue should be something that is a general issue or concern in society somewhere in your community or even in the world. Be sure you are picking a general issue, not simply one of your pet peeves! Some ideas of things you might be interested in depicting/standing up for or against: pollution/environmental concerns, abortion rights, racism, terrorism, homelessness, Aids, technology, religious wars, the war in Iraq, poverty, corporations, the global economy, verbal abuse, bullying, depression, teen suicide, discrimination, drug abuse, drinking and driving, immigration, medical research, the media, family issues,etc…What do you CARE about? Talk to people- have you, one of your friends, or anyone in your family or community been affected by any of these? How? Why? How did it affect them?
Consider who your audience may or may not be. Let your voice be heard!
