What is the difference between Commercial/Advertising Art Major and Design&Visual Communication Major?

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

I was looking at Collegeboard and I saw these two different majors that I am both strongly interested in.
Which one fits better to pursue into becoming an art director or a creative director?

Well, the majors aren’t called that at colleges. that’s just collegeboard. the degrees are BA fine art, BFA fine art, art history, graphic design, interior design, illustration design, museum studies, art director, and art managment. those are in the art department.

In the business department, there’s visual communications. it usually breaks down into design based marketing, web design, etc. You take a couple arts courses, but the majority is business and computer science classes.

if you want to be and art director, you need to to art history with a minor in business or art criticism or some colleges have arts management majors which teach you specifically about art and how to market it/represent an artist. it merges art/art history/marketing/and business.

If you are more interested in web design, journalism, marketing, or just the business/tech side of the job then you can do visual communications. BUT it has LITTLE to do with art

what are the duties of a commercial manager in advertising?

Friday, June 4th, 2010

it is an upcoming newspaper and they have just hired a commercial manager to do advertising, business plans etc

Depends how many people are in that company. If has Advertising Director or advertising assistant then the responsibilities are less.

But basically the commercial manager will manage the financial aspects of all contracts. He/she will have good relationships with key clients, main contracts and consultants, and be proactive in his/her approach. Will help or close contract and manager a sales team.

Anyone else find that commercial on CNN advertising a product to relieve tinnitus irritating?

Sunday, April 4th, 2010

I don’t expect to get many answers here as I think the commercial just started to air, but it is soooo annoying as it has this very high pitched noise that hurts your ears. I have had tinnitus before, and it flairs up periodically, usually trigged by loud, high-pitched noise—-like this commercial!! I have even heard this commercial when in another room and not even paying attention to what is on CNN; it is that irritating. Others?

No idea. lets see what it has to offer.

Valium, Xanax and Klonopin are benzodiazepine drugs that many doctors prescribe for tinnitus. These are conventional medications which achieve only limited success in tinnitus relief, and usually their bothersome side effects such as dry mouth, blurred vision, and constipation often discourage use.

They are addicting to varying degrees and cannot be used continuously for a long period of time. They are helpful in reducing tinnitus symptoms and aid in sleeping. Valium is the most addicting of these and is not used often for this reason.

Xanax is very popular and is prescribed often for tinnitus. However, the ATA report on medications that cause tinnitus lists Xanax as causing it in 6.6% of cases.

There is actually no cure for tinnitus with the conventional medicine. Actually, since last many years, the onus has been on the herbal industry to provide relief, if any, to tinnitus sufferers.

Tinnitus is usually due to damage to the microscopic ends of the hearing nerve in the inner ear. Perfect hearing is possible only if these nerves remain healthy and any damage to these nerves result in tinnitus or hearing impairment.

Some herbal remedies exist which can be used to support all body systems involved in helping the ear to perform its tasks of clear hearing and balance, as well as the circulatory, cardiovascular, and nervous systems.
Some of the most common herbs & biochemic tissue salts used are
• Ginkgo Biloba is excellent for a number of cerebral and circulatory disorders. It is probably the most widely-used herb for tinnitus and many sufferers swear by this natural ingredient.
• Rosemary dilates and strengthens blood vessels and is an excellent circulation tonic. Rosemary is particularly useful for tinnitus that is caused or worsened by high blood pressure and other circulatory conditions.
• Avena Sativa is effective in reducing high cholesterol levels which can contribute to circulatory problems which cause tinnitus.
• Wild Hyssop s also useful in reducing pain and inflammation.
• Salicylic Ac. (30C) is indicated for tinnitus with loud roaring or ringing sounds, which may be accompanied by deafness or vertigo. This remedy is particularly useful in people whose symptoms began with a bout of flu, Meniere’s disease or long-term use of aspirin.
• Ferrum phosphoricum (Ferrum phos. D6) is a homeopathic biochemic tissue salt which supports the absorption of iron in the body. The protective myelin sheath which surrounds all nerve tissue needs iron to supply this vital nutrient to the nerve cells it encases. Regular use of Ferrum phos. can help to prevent dizziness, headaches and restlessness and is of great benefit for those who tend to feel irritable, tense and tired.
• Magnesium phosphate (Mag. phos. D6) well-known as a homeopathic painkiller, Mag. phos. is also of great benefit to the health of the nerves. It acts as a natural anti-spasmodic and a nerve and muscle relaxant and is also frequently recommended for stress headaches.

Hope all this helps

Good Luck!

Should Indian cricketers be made to do less commercial advertising and concentrate on cricket?

Saturday, January 16th, 2010

I feel that maybe these guys spend too much time in front of the camera instead of concentrating on their chosen sport and it shows. What are your comments on this
Edit> it may be an additional talent underarm but how does it help in them playing more consistant cricket?

You bet. I am tried of seeing Donkey’s face everytime I turn on the idiot box. He speaks english in such an amusing accent that most of the time I cant help but laugh my butt off. You should have seen that Aircel ad by Dhoni. He should join the circus with Harbhajan and Sreesanth.

I was watching t.v. one night and I saw a commercial about this company will pay for my auto shop repairs on my vehicle for a fee a month. It was something like Stoppayingrepairs.com
I can’t remember the name. I live in Nyc and got cable, so its on one of those channels.

idontgiveaphuckk, I had similar problems with my Toyota Corolla and last month. Try getting a free auto warranty quote and see if you can get the policy before you need to get your car fixed. http://www.lowestquoteonline.info/Auto-Warranty.html

what id the differences between visual communication design, advertising commercial design, and graphic design?

Friday, November 27th, 2009

what is the differences between visual communication design, advertising commercial design, and graphic design? thanks

the objective and so the target is different.
1) visual communication - the design talks about a point of view and so it is a style expression
2) advertising - the design talks about a brand/product
3) graphic - the design talks about itself and becomes a designers expression
