VISUAL|COMMUNICATION

Communicating has dignity and objective that go beyond simple information. It enables valorisation of a company, brand or product.

Effective communication is a balanced mix of: a good message to be communicated inserted into a good container that reaches the set target at the right moment and that is, even thanks to a certain amount of luck, correctly received. This sounds simple, but there are millions of messages to be communicated and a plethora of different possibilities for transmitting them.

There are a huge range of tools at the disposal of companies, each one with its own peculiarities, advantages and limits. Simple technical knowledge is therefore not enough, linked merely to knowledge of the specific communication tool. You need strategy, marketing, in-depth knowledge of the sector in which you intend to move and of the timescales to be respected. Otherwise your good message, despite its valid container, will end up floating ignored on the busy communication network.

The objective of this short summer course is to offer an overview of all the planning stages involved in communication, from concept to corporate image to brand, product, packaging, sales point, with a view to conveying the concept through all the tools available.

To gain command of this subject and in preparation for working in the Visual Communication sector, we advise you take a look at the programme of our Polimoda Masters course.

INFORMATION|ABOUT|COURSE

I should choose the summer Visual Communication course:

if I am already working in the communication division of a Fashion company in a specific context, perhaps involved in a very practical aspect and I would rather have a more global idea of the visual communication sector, more from a project and strategic point of view than a merely operational one or if I am already working in the communication division of a company, but not in Fashion and I would like to learn more about the dynamics of visual communication in the fashion system

to satisfy my curiosity and see if this sector is suited to me and if I should therefore continue to study in this direction To this end, we advise you to reflect on the possibility of also attending the afternoon career guidance course on Job Profiles, a journey through the roles and tasks of the various figures working in the fashion system. It will help you get a better picture of who does what inside (or outside) a fashion company.

Polimoda summer courses are introductory sessions; therefore the idea is always to give a taste of a given profession and in no way do they represent professional qualifications. For the latter please see our Visual Communication Masters.
