Powers of Persuasion: the inside story of British advertising 1951-2000. (Print copy) by Winston FletcherDuring the second half of the 20th century advertising in Britain led the world. In those years advertising boosted economic growth and peoples' affluence. It reached its peak as a proportion of the Gross National Product and increasingly came to touch upon almost every aspect of everyindividual's life. At the same time the advertising industry was frequently under siege, as politicians, pressure groups, and others constantly sought to restrain its influence - and often succeeded. Yet no history of British advertising covering this heady period has previously been published. During the 1970s and 1980s British advertising creativity led the world. But Powers of Persuasion is not just about advertisements - it is about advertising. In the second half of the last century Britainwas also a world leader in setting industry benchmarks - innovating the disciplines of account planning and market research, setting the standard for public service advertising, launching global advertising awards festivals, introducing the best system of advertising regulation, setting up theworld's largest advertising archive, and the most comprehensive on-line advertising research databank in the world. All these were the keystones on which British creativity was build. Simultaneously, British advertising companies - particularly Saatchi and Saatchi and WPP - took their place amongthe world's greatest.Powers of Persuasion tells the authoritative story of this dynamic, exhilarating era, with pen portraits of the personalities involved, anecdotes, case histories, and essential data. Written from the inside by one of the industry's leaders, it is a book for advertising specialists and the generalpublic alike.

Guerrilla Advertising: unconventional brand communication. (Print copy) by Gavin Lucas; Michael DorrianThe advertising industry is in a state of flux. In an age where we can choose what media we consume, the traditional channels of TV, press and poster are no longer always the most effective methods for a brand to reach its target audience. As a result, global brands are opting to implement ever more inventive and original schemes to get their projects talked about. Microsoft covered Manhattan in butterfly stickers, Volkswagen made a car out of ice and parked it on a London street, and Adidas suspended two soccer players high above the streets of Tokyo for a death-defying faceoff. This book shows the best international examples of the varied and inventive tactics that are being used today by big-name brands, non-profit organizations and individuals to promote themselves, their ideas and their products. Over 70 international campaigns are featured, grouped according to their approach: stunts, street propaganda, sneaky tactics, site-specific campaigns and multi-fronted attacks.

The New Guide to Identity: how to create and sustain change through managing identity. (Print copy) by Wally OlinsIt is, of course, commonplace for corporations to operate sophisticated identity programmes. But identity has now moved way beyond the commercial area. We live in a world in which cities, charities, universities, clubs - in fact any activity that involves more than two or three people - all seem to have identities too. However, very few of these organizations have released the full potential that effective management of identity can achieve. In this book, the world#65533;s leading authority on corporate identity shows how managing identity can create and sustain behavioural change in an organization as well as achieving the more traditional outcome of influencing its external audiences. The New Guide to Identity provides a simple clear guide to identity, including what it is and how it can be used to full effect. If a change of identity is required, the whole process is described from start-up (including investigation and analysis of the current identity), through developing the new identity structure, to implementation and launch. For anyone responsible for the identity of an organization, or for designing it for someone else, or attempting to achieve change in their organization, or studying the subject, this straightforward guide is essential reading.

Motion Design: moving graphics for television, music, video, cinema and digital interfaces. (Print copy) by Matt WoolmanA dynamic atlas of the fundamentals of design for motion and interaction Responding to the dramatic growth in digital media in recent years, academic institutions around the world are introducing the element of motion into graphic design courses. Motion Design provides design educators, students and professionals currently working in, or desiring to enter, the discipline of design for motion and interaction with a solution-driven roadmap for negotiating the territory. Motion Design also addresses the fact that, as different strands of media converge into one digital form, practitioners must respond with greater interdisciplinary collaboration. The book describes what the designer must decide before any software is loaded: the fundamentals, process, and methodology. It goes beyond software, to focus on effective solutions, making it both a design resource and an educational reference. Commercial, academic and artistic applications of animated graphics are used to illustrate how the elements of space, time and motion affect the traditional, print-based understanding of graphic form and communication.
