ScenarioYou are newly appointed to the communication team for a reputable philanthropic organization. The current task is for your team to create a global campaign that visually conveys a social message both here in the United States, as well as globally. This visual campaign message will use strategic visual communication to appeal to these differing audiences to reduce and potentially eliminate racial prejudice. Your visual communication campaign will be directed toward audiences from both the United States and another country of your choice.The board of directors has asked you to assemble four video presentations and one instructional document to submit for their review. They have asked that the total video presentations' length be under three minutes, and that you present visual examples while verbally explaining the main points of the analysis. You are reminded that four separate links need to be submitted for their review, along with your instructional document for the communication team.Visual Campaign Elements:Create two ideas for promotional documents (flyers, pamphlets, etc.) to appeal to both your targeted U.S. viewers and to your targeted viewers from the other global country of your choice. Both of these documents should strategically utilize the following visual communication elements:colorlinesbalancecontrast.Create your video presentation for the board members clearly explaining how the visual communication elements on each of the two promotional documents strategically convey the message and meaning to viewers. Be sure to compare and contrast how the viewers from the U.S. and the other country might interpret these differing visuals elements, and how you used them strategically to please each targeted audience.Find two different images to be used on the organization's website page. One will be for the U.S. website, and one for the website in the country of your choice. Be sure that each of these images visually appeals to these two targeted audience viewers, and that the visual enhances the message to help eliminate racial prejudice. In your video presentation for the board of directors, identify and analyze the visual elements of cultural familiarity, semiotics, and emotional appeal (cognitive). Additionally, explain how each of those visual elements visually persuades the U.S. and global viewers in different ways.Design two logos for this anti-racism campaign. One logo should be designed for U.S. audiences, and the other should be designed for the other country of your choice. Design your video presentation to explain how each of these logos can clearly be seen on both small and large settings (example: cell phone app size and billboard size), as well as a comparison of how the color, lines, and visual elements are specifically designed to visually appeal to each of these different countriesCreate two social media posts, one for the United States and one for the other country of your choice. The posts should include text, images, and the logo matching the country where the social media post will appear. In your video presentation to the board members, compare and analyze how these visual elements (the images and the logo) emotionally engage and persuade each specified target audience (the United States and the country of your choice) to reduce and eliminate racial prejudice.Create a one-page instructional document for your communication team members outlining the ethical concepts regarding finding and using visuals in communication. Within your instructional document, use images and/or clip art to enhance each of your points in the document, and address the following items:How might the organization properly obtain and use images from outside sources?What are the dangers and problems that arise when altering and digitally enhancing images?

Part I Discussion Questions The internetworking infrastructure is one of the major components of businesses everywhere. When working with interconnected technologies, security issues may arise. There are often news reports about stolen corporate assets that contain sensitive information about either businesses or customers. Discuss the trade-offs that may be necessary between a fully interconnected infrastructure and security measures. If you had a company with a large internetworking infrastructure, what kinds of trade-offs would you anticipate and what kinds of policies would you consider putting in place? Availability is an important element in today’s global marketplace. Customers expect to be able to access services 24/7, but no system will have an availability of 100 percent. When deciding whether to host a solution in-house or externally, many considerations need to be examined. What are some of these considerations? List some of the resources that need to be allocated in order to maintain in-site hosting of services. Explain whether or not you believe in in-house hosting. Part II Part A. Research Component: Internetworking Business Model In today's fast-moving economy, traditional business models have evolved into hybrid versions of the original models. Enterprise X uses a hybrid business model. Analyze the evolving network business component of Enterprise X by first describing it in your words and explaining how the company integrated networking into its previous traditional business model. Then, illustrate with examples how their current hybrid business model can evolve into a more internetworking centered business model in order to compete as a global service provider. Justify your ideas with references from the literature and the Web and if possible refer to case studies. Part B. Presentation Component: Internetworking Strategy You have already researched pertinent issues and prepared a Position Paper that will guide you in presenting your proposed strategy for Enterprise X. Now you must also prepare the first part of your strategy proposal where you will present your vision for Enterprise X. You will demonstrate an understanding of the challenges ahead for Enterprise X by analyzing the following issues with respect to the planned internetworking strategy as described in your Position Paper. You continue to build the case for the new strategy by analyzing the needed new business network model: The requirements for a new business network model for including the new geographies where the company will operate within a global strategy. The internetworking concepts will be integrated into the new strategy. The possible partnerships that will be needed to participate in the global marketplace.
