Hello Lovely Viewers, This week we read chapter two of Designing for Emotion. This chapter focus on evolution and how our brains are wired to identify certain patterns in everything. You are probably wondering about the title, well this was summarize from the chapter. There are some people who believe the reason babies are cute …
So this week, we were assigned to read Designing for Emotion, Chapter Two. In this chapter, we are told that humans are kinda complex creatures and that there is a tie between the design of things and human appeal (obviously). This is obviously important because it explains how when designing things, it is helpful to keep … Continue reading Designing for Emotion Ch. II
In my public relations publications course we were asked to read the second chapter of “Designing for Emotion,” by Arron Walter, and reflect on things we agreed and disagreed with. The second chapter mainly focuses on emotions, and how they shape different elements of the designs we construct. I disagree with the idea that cognitive […]
Hello Lovely Viewers, So this week taught me that I loathe Photoshop. These last two lessons had us develop two stakeholders which led to creating two, separate direct mailers for each stakeholder.

The two have some similarities. The main effect I wanted to convey between the two direct mailers is fluidity. While they … Continue reading “PUBLIC RELATIONS PUBLICATIONS: Reflection Post”
