Study on the Application of the Bété Script in Modern Graphic Design

This paper takes the application of the Bete script in modern graphic design as the main content of research; takes the analysis of the Bete script, with their particular expression and connotation, nature and characteristics of the Bete writing system with the approach to revitalizing this Bete script based on the principles of modern typography. The study used both descriptive and experimental methods to produce a sample of graphic works from the Bete script to popularize this writing concept in the culture of graphic design. It introduced a new method of designing fonts of the Bete script based on the criteria of applying the plan. It also explored the use of the Bete scripts in poster design, logo design, and book design. The result of the study indicates that the cultural connotation of the Bete script and the application of the Bete script in graphic design, the basic methods and combined with modern design concepts are reasonable and provide a reference for designers to use this Bete script in graphic design. The result of the study also indicates that the application of the Bete script in these three modes of graphic expression (poster design, logo design, and book design) can enrich modern graphic design while promoting the Bete script and helping to prevent its extinction.

Science Fiction between Virtual Space Opera's Adventure and the Alienation of Future Cities in Movie Poster Design

One of the characteristics of science fiction literature is the promotion of the idea of adventure in building capabilities and making the impossible possible from the logic of domination and seizure of an approach that calls for the return of the invasion and occupation of technologically advanced beings that establish a pattern of tension in relationships, as digital technology contributes to crystallizing their own ideas and contents through the space surrounding people, their clothes, bodies, and their combat tools. The lasers, animals, mythical shapes and fast-moving vehicles, both land and air, are commensurate with the narratives of the epic space opera, as it deals with tales of a mythical character with bright light reflections to confirm that the image does not convey a real reality, but rather a picture of an idea that stimulates the imagination, and the problem of the current research has been identified with the following: How it responded Science fiction literature for a virtual space opera adventure style in Star Wars movie series poster design? Does the concept of Darwinian evolution have a holistic connotation in future cities in the design of Star Wars posters? The importance of the current research has also been determined through the openness of the creative artistic work to scientific and technical laws and theories with the literary and artistic imagination unlimited, with its weak presence in the Arab and Iraqi world in particular, and the inability to achieve a balance in the concepts of originality, modernity and technological progress, and the ultimate goal is to identify literary conceptual frameworks and artistic science fiction.

Features of the design of social posters of the XXI century and their role in the formation of ecological culture

The article considers the poster design as a means of broadcasting and its role in the formation of ecological culture. The impact of the development of technological progress on the birth of completely new forms of the poster, which are not limited to one paper medium. The value of a social poster is in its content aspect, conceptual solution, well-chosen palette, composition. The language of graphic design changes along with the situation in society, becomes extremely figurative, exaggerated, metaphorical, symbolism takes the place of verbatim. The main task of the design of a social poster focused on nature conservation is to contribute to the formation of an ecological culture, starting with personal motivation for self-preservation and preservation of the environment, where the knowledge and skills of both each person individually and entire human communities. The purpose of the social poster is to orient the viewer to the commitment to the highest social values - such as humanism, love for people, for life, and nature. The poster is an iconic carrier of information, simple and understandable, which does not require intellectual efforts from the viewer and educates him both morally and aesthetically, influences a person’s emotions, his attitude to the environment.

The Pre-Production Plans on Designing a Promotional Video for Project-based Language Learning: A Case Study with Smart Toilets

This pilot project undertook an effort to understand how the pre-production plans on designing a promotional video in a project-based language learning classroom could be unveiled with undergraduate EFL computer science junior-level students. The central idea of the project was to explore the efficacy of digital storytelling as a method for developing professional communication skills in English. The specific case study chosen for the project was on intelligent toilets, and the pre-production movie design activities as assignments were designed in the syllabus as a community outreach effort in trying to promote awareness about intelligent toilets as a commercial product, and the necessity and benefits of intelligent toilets for consumers who might not be aware of it’s reach. Assignments such as designing storyline and screenplay, print and video poster design, visual storyline with concept mapping, storyboarding and conference presentation design and delivery not only focused on understanding how students handle different design and analysis software, and technical documentation in a group setting, but also the extent to which they could successfully work with their team collaboratively, and in the process improve professional communication. The project could not explicitly and objectively measure the learning outcomes for professional communication, but it helped us explore the extent to which the group assignments requiring substantial group communication and coordination could be worked through successfully, and students’ self-reported impression about the course materials, in general, and the working dynamics of the group. It’s an established fact that successful group communication and coordination, and such group-based technical communication activities require multiple interactions, iterations and repeated and prolonged exposure. However, within the limited scope of this pilot project, the researchers could identify moderately successful efforts being made both for the assignments and in terms of the team effort.

POSTER UTILIZATION AS A PREVENTION OF DRUG ABUSE IN ADOLESCENTS THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA

Drug trafficking is one of the problems that still occurs in Indonesia and is now a serious problem, especially for adolescents or the younger generation. Adolescents are of productive age who really need special attention, where the level of self-search tends to be unstable and the mindset is instant. Therefore there is anxiety among the community including parents about the behavior of adolescents who are still unable to control themselves in things that are dangerous and destructive to themselves and tend to lead to acts of violating norms or legal rules. So there is a need for efforts to prevent abuse. drugs. One of the triggers for the increasing level of drug abuse is the lack of socialization to the public which results in minimal information about the dangers of narcotics abuse. The purpose of this study was to determine the function of posters on social media in making it easier for the public to obtain information regarding the dangers of narcotics abuse. The instrument used was a poster design uploaded on social media. The method used in data collection is primary data which is obtained directly through comments and suggestions from followers. The results obtained are the easier it is for the public to obtain information about the dangers of drugs as a solution in preventing drug abuse. It is hoped that the use of posters on Instagram social media can become a media of information about the dangers of drug abuse

Evaluative, inclusive, participatory: Developing a new language with children for school building design

This paper emphasises the attribute of Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) in school (re) design by extending the research toward genuine participation and evaluation. It aims to re-conceptualise “child's participation” through exploring its relationship with POE by observing child-built environment connection and by demonstrating how children engage with the problems of school design. This empirically grounded research presents eight workshops with three different schools in Albania. It explores the process, outcomes, challenges, and opportunities during the active involvement of a total of 502 children aged 10–14 years old. The research incorporates a multiplicity of techniques from both creative and evaluative methods: essays, wish poem, drawing, model making, poster design, visual/POE questionnaire and walk-through are some that ensure a comprehensive achievement of children in the process. The study confirms the utility of participation in school design as a tool to propose child-oriented spaces. Within the results, six design concepts of the desired school building of children are identified. These are flexibility, horizontality, campus-like environment, transparency, accessibility, and ecological concept.We propose a participation language based on the experience, perception, imagination, and active involvement of the children in the learning environments. It concludes that children participation builds upon a spatial experience which lies on the child-school relationship. Language is dynamic and allows researchers and designer to edit and annotate whenever needed, but by always referring to the school of children active and present in participation. It emphasises the POE-participation connection and to further open the discourse of participation to the Albanian public.

Picture This! Reflecting on the Use of Posters as Expressions of PhD Research Projects

The presentation of posters at scientific conferences to visually represent research projects is a widespread international practice. The main purpose of this paper is to offer reflections relating to posters as visual representations of research studies conducted by PhD candidates. As the basis for our reflections, we consider the main purposes and intended learning outcomes linked to posters and reflect on some of the design and assessment issues associated with the multi-faceted purposes of posters in contexts such as postgraduate research conferences. Notably, the paper includes a set of illustrative vignettes written by a group of PhD students from the Faculty of Humanities at the University of Manchester who were required to design and exhibit posters at an annually held postgraduate research conference. This reflexive dialogue raises a series of issues for consideration by those who are actively involved with the design, presentation, observation and assessment of posters produced by PhD candidates.

When globalese meets localese: transformational tactics in the typographic landscape – a Bernese case study

ABSTRACT This paper examines an annual anti-racism event in Bern, Switzerland, which, in 2016, was promoted with three posters designed around a distinctive kind of multimodal writing. In large black and white lettering, the posters voiced real and imagined immigrants in one of three statements including ĭ ŗĕđä õ ɓæřŋ d’űţśĉħ (I also speak Bernese). Each poster thereby combined the regional dialect of Swiss German (not usually written in official settings) with ostensibly nonsensical foreign diacritics. Drawing on interviews with the poster designer and the city administrator responsible for organizing the anti-racism campaign, I argue that it is the contrapuntal mixing of semiotic resources which is central to the political force of the posters. Superficially, their destandardized, embellished orthography bears the hallmarks of, inter alia, globalese, and “new writing.” However, the rhetorical impact of the posters lies precisely in the pointed, simultaneous deployment of a recognizable form of localese and in the skilful balancing of visual style and verbal substance. As such, and while complicating a number of common binaries in linguistic landscapes scholarship, this case study demonstrates the tactical intervention of an accomplished wordsmith in transforming or rewriting the city's typographic but also cultural landscape.

Development of rule-based expert system for conceptualisation of poster design

This study discusses development of rule-based expert system (R-ES) as a decision support for poster design conceptualisation. Users of the proposed expert system are novice poster designers while the experts are senior and professional poster designers. Development of R-ES is started by defining type of poster to be designed. Based on professional poster designer’s experiences, 5 types of poster have been proposed, which are advertising, information, movie, event and political poster. A knowledge-based system consists of IF-THEN rules have been developed by the experts to determine poster design concept that are colour combination, poster size, font type and size, expert note, and poster sample. Result of this study is an online expert system for conceptualisation of poster design that could be widely used by novice poster designers without constrained by space and time.

The Artist, the Advertiser, the Public: The Great Western Railway Poster as Collaborative Design

Between 1923 and 1939 the Great Western Railway (GWR) company produced over a hundred lithographic posters which advertised its services to the West Country. Despite their popularity during the period, these posters have been criticized by poster art scholars who consider them old-fashioned in comparison with modernist poster designs. This article aims to reconsider this dismissal by identifying the complex network of agents involved in GWR poster production and by examining the aesthetic, social and economic values the resulting posters were intended to extol.

Evaluating the Teaching of Academic Debate and Critical Thinking Course at Iraqi Kurdistan Universities

The study is based on the assumption that the current curricula in the Iraqi Kurdistan Universities (henceforth IKU) were not satisfactorily compatible with the scientific, technological and industrial needs of the Region’s markets. These curricula neither help students to develop their skills nor assist them in thinking creatively. Therefore, the new curricula are supposed to educate undergraduates to increase their capabilities in research, information dissemination and learning a second/foreign language. The Academic Debate and Critical Thinking (ADCT) course was added to all freshmen programs in order to prepare them for university life and make them proficient cadre for their future occupation. This course helps students to be critical thinkers and effective communicators. Since the new version of this course has been implemented for four years, this study attempts to evaluate the course and find out how it is taught, how effective it is, what topics are studied, what activities are used, what types of assessment are employed and what are the main challenges that teachers and students face in dealing with this course. The sample of the study are the teachers of ADCT and the first year students in the English departments in both Colleges of Basic Education at Salahaddin University-Erbil and the University of Sulaimani in the academic year 2017-2018. Two questionnaires were prepared using Google Form. The students’ responses revealed that debating is focused on, general social problems are debated, academic posters are used more, and group work is dominating class activities. As for teachers’ responses, they think that the objectives of the course are clear and achievable, discussion and debating are mostly used, and the assessment system suggested by the textbook is used accurately except for poster design which some teachers do not teach.

Semantics-aware typographical choices via affective associations

With the tens of thousands of fonts that are now readily available, it is non-trivial to select the most suitable font for a given use case. Considering the impact of the choice of font on human perception of the text, there is a strong need for semantic font search and recommendation. Aiming to fulfill this need, we induce a typographical lexicon providing associations between words and fonts. For this purpose, we determine font vectors for basic and complex emotions, based on word similarities, antonymy information, and Plutchik’s Wheel of Emotions. We create a large font lexicon, named FontLex, relying on emotion associations between the words and the fonts. We evaluate our results through user studies and find that for the majority of the evaluated words, the fonts recommended by FontLex are preferred. We also further extend the dataset using synonyms of font attributes and emotion names. Finally, using CNN embeddings of the fonts, we expand our attribute score assignment to new fonts. The resulting FontLex resource provides mappings between 6.7K words and 2K fonts. Our proof of concept application demonstrates how FontLex can be invoked to obtain semantic font recommendation for poster design.
