Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The visual constitutes an increasingly significant element of contemporary organization, as post-industrial societies move towards economies founded on creative and knowledge-intensive industries.

With contributions from leading academics across the world, The Routledge Companion to Visual Organization is a valuable reference source for students and academics interested in disciplines such as film studies, entrepreneurship, marketing, sociology and most importantly, organizational behaviour.

Download or read book Creative Advertising Concept and Copy written by Georgia-Zozeta Miliopoulou and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-04-08 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considering perspectives on creative advertising through a unique media and communications lens, this book encompasses both the theory and practical tools needed to approach and understand creativity in advertising with an original eye. Drawing from diverse subject areas including Social Anthropology, Narrative Theory, Consumer Psychology, Semiotics and Cultural Studies, Creative Advertising Concept and Copy provides a solid grounding in advertising education away from the traditional business and marketing literature. Notwithstanding the need for independent inspiration and originality, the author guides readers through the entire process of campaign planning, moving from strategy to creative idea to finished piece whilst employing concepts and principles relevant to ‘design thinking’. Taking into account ethics and regulations, the use of text and images, and storytelling across radio, TV and video platforms, readers will come to a holistic understanding of what advertising can (and cannot) do, and how to achieve the best results. Written for students involved in creative advertising as an area of academic research and professional practice, this book will also be of interest to early-career advertising professionals seeking a fresh perspective on their work.
Download or read book Marketing of Tourism Experiences written by Noel Scott and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a review of the current theory and practice of experiential tourism and how it is marketed. Many societies today are characterised by widespread individual wealth of an order previously confined to the elite with the consequence that ownership of ‘ordinary’ physical goods is no longer a distinguishing factor. Instead people are now seeking the ‘extraordinary’ with examples being bodies enhanced through surgery, personal fitness trainers, and, in the case of leisure and tourism, seeking unique and unusual places to visit and activities to undertake. This trend manifests in the increasing consumption of services and the addition of experiential elements to physical goods by businesses aware of societal changes. The trend is enhanced by rapidly changing technology and economic production methods providing new sectors of the world’s population with access to the consumption experiences that are repeatedly featured in the media. This is the experience economy, characterised by a search by consumers for fantasies, feelings, and fun. This book was based on a special issue of Journal of Hospitality Marketing & Mangement.
