Discussion Forum 1 Topic: What Is Branding?In today’s society the term “branding” is often misinterpreted. People often view visuals such as logos or physical materials as brands. While these items are important components of the brand they do not carry the weight of branding at large. Branding is more how people perceive a product. For example look at a Nike shoe. The shoe itself is not the brand. It is the item that is manufactured. The brand is the idea of the product the emotional relationship a person has with the product to develop an overall perception. Therefore branding is more than just the product itself: it is how a person engages with it. In your own experience as a designer have you ever seen amazing products with weak branding? Describe your findings and share with your peers. Provide images and articles to support your discussion. Discussion Forum 2 Topic: Telling Your Story in a Noisy WorldIn today’s society there are over 325 million mobile subscriptions. When mobile subscribers are using their devices almost half of them are networking on social media. If you were to go out into a public space and look around you you would find at least one person using a device. That person is likely making a tweet double-tapping a picture or updating a status. Advertisers understand the significance of smart phones and are constantly developing and pushing mobile ads to reach the masses. Advertisers and companies everywhere are challenged with the task of developing materials that will stand out over all the noise. One way to stay above the clutter is to make your message crystalline clear and simple. How might churches tell their stories in a clear and effective way to reach those who are unchurched or who may be looking for a new church home? Discussion Forum 3 Topic: CollaborationTaking on the approach of collaboration can help a design team to achieve great results. Often in companies you will see departments that experience silos or take on a very individualized approach to tasks. When you embrace collaboration it can open many facets of ideas and viewpoints to help develop a strong successful design solution. In what ways have you benefited from collaboration in design or in other projects? Discussion Forum 4 Topic: Asking the Right QuestionsWhen faced with a design challenge with a new client one of the most challenging tasks can be asking the right questions. When approaching an organization it is important to dig deep and really grasp an understanding of who they are. Consider every detail as you ask questions to help build a solid foundation or framework to help inform your research and design solutions. What are some important questions you have asked clients to help you navigate the design process? How have these questions benefited you in your process? Have you ever left a meeting feeling like you did not ask enough questions? How did not asking enough questions affect your design process? Discussion Forum 5 Topic: The Big IdeaTaglines can help distill the essence of a brand and communicate to consumers the “big idea” of an organization. Share at least 3 of your favorite organization taglines. Explain how these taglines convey or do not convey the essence of the company. Discussion Forum 6 Topic: Design IdentityNow that you have done a large amount of research and have created a design brief for your Brand Development Project you move into the process of development.
