LO4 - Legal and Ethical
Non-broadcast
UK Code of Non-broadcast Advertising, Sales Promotion and Direct Marketing (CAP Code)PrincipleThe central principle for all marketing communications is that they should be legal, decent, honest and truthful. All marketing communications should be prepared with a sense of responsibility to consumers and society and should reflect the spirit, not merely the letter, of the Code.BackgroundRules
Legality
This Code must be followed by all advertisers, agencies and media.
The Code is enforced by the Advertising Standards Authority, who can take steps to remove or have amended any ads that breach these rules.
Marketers should use the ASA website, www.asa.org.uk, or the CAP website,www.cap.org.uk, to inform themselves of recent ASA adjudications, the latest text of the Code and CAP guidance on the Code.
The fact that a marketing communication complies with the Code does not guarantee that every publisher will accept it. Media owners can refuse space to marketing communications that break the Code and are not obliged to publish every marketing communication offered to them.
The ASA/CAP self-regulatory system is recognised by the Government, Trading Standards and the Courts as one of the "established means" of consumer protection in non-broadcast marketing communications. Any matter that principally concerns a legal dispute will normally need to be resolved through law enforcement agencies or the Courts.
The ASA and CAP will treat in confidence any genuinely private or secret material supplied unless the Courts or officials acting within their statutory powers compel its disclosure.
| 1.10 |
Marketers have primary responsibility for ensuring that their marketing communications are legal. Marketing communications should comply with the law and should not incite anyone to break it.
|
| 1.10.1 |
Marketers must not state or imply that a product can legally be sold if it cannot.
According to the ASA guidlines these are the thing that I need to be cautious of with the graphic design pieces that I have made. ![]() https://www.cap.org.uk/Advertising-Codes/Non-Broadcast/CodeItem.aspx?cscid={02438bfd-0b9c-43aa-9da4-92cff0b235b7} As I am making graphic design pieces for a club I need to show certain things related to alcohol in my graphic design pieces for promotional reasons and so people will know what is being advertised. The Logo that I have created that will be used throughout my Graphic products is a line drawing of a Martini glass. I need to make sure that it does not promote irresponsible drinking or a specific high alcoholic drink and I have kept it vague in my designs. ![]() https://www.cap.org.uk/Advertising-Codes/Non-Broadcast/CodeItem.aspx?cscid={9850dc70-0ca5-4ef1-a38f-b638ed990014} I need to make sure that my graphic products do not contain anything that could offend anybody, For example on the poster I need to make sure that the images used could not cause offense to anyone that views the graphics. I also need to make sure that the text on my poster is appropriate and not cause harm or offence. ![]() https://www.cap.org.uk/Advertising-Codes/Non-Broadcast.aspx The purpose of my graphics is to serve as promotional material for my club I need to make sure that the images stay true to what they are advertising and not have any misleading information on my poster or the membership card that I have created. |
LO4 - Budgeting
"At Go Media, we have different rates depending on the service. We design at $100/hour, develop at $125 and consult at $65/hour."
"North Carolina based designer, Lenny Terenzi of Hey Monkey! Design, shares information on his fee breakdown, “Right now I calculate my project rates at $75 per hour. When I do proposals I give certain categories flat rate amounts. So for a $2,000 print / logo design project it may be:
– $300 Project Management
– $700 Creative Concepting (wireframe, sketches, etc.)
– $700 Graphic Design

What is illustrator
a program for illustrating and vector graphicsAdobe Illustrator is a program used by both artists and graphic designers to create vector images. These images will then be used for company logos, promotional uses or even personal work, both in print and digital form
Bleed is the part of the image or background colour that runs off the edge of the printing area of a document before the document is trimmed down to size. The purpose of the bleed is so that there is margin for paper shift in the printer and room for design inconsistencies.
Raster graphics are digital images created or captured (for example, by scanning in a photo) as a set of samples of a given space. A raster is a grid of x and y coordinates on a display space. (And for three-dimensional images, a z coordinate.) (looses Quality)
Vector graphics is the use of geometrical primitives such as points, lines, curves, and shapes or polygons—all of which are based on mathematical expressions—to represent images in computer graphics.

LO3 - Survey Monkey
overall my feedback improvements are to make the products stand out more to attract a larger audience when they are presented as posters and flyers, the more eye catching they are the more people interact and become interested in them.

style
The leeds fest campaign posters are very bold and eye catching, it uses the colours yellow and black and red mainly as they compliment each other so that customers can easily view the content of the posters without too much going on. the colours also connote a positive vibe which reflects the vibe at the festival. red is normally seen as a dangerous colour but within this poster it reflects the element of happiness
layout
they lay out is not very structured in the poster as they bands are just put into columns and paragraphs where they are listed within each date and stage where it easy for the customers to read and understand where each band are playing.
target audience
The target audience for Leeds Fest is males between the ages of 18-28, this is because this festival largely features the promotion and sale of alcohol even though children younger are aloud to attended this event, this is so that its captive audience when selling products is as large as possible. this is because the acts that are playing at Leeds Fest mainly reach out and relate to a male audience.
