A new publication format for UW-Parkside's Perspective publication ensures timely delivery about news and events to university alumni
ABOUT PROJECT:
Communication directors from the University of Wisconsin-Parkside approached the staff at Corporate Images, Inc. with a simple problem: they needed to create a new paradigm for their alumni publication Perspective. The realized that their previous model, a 16-page or more magazine-style publication was getting mired in bureacracy and was not delivering the timely news they wanted to get out to alumni and other University supporters. To combat these issues, I lead the Corporate Images' staff to push UW-Parkside toward a simpler and smaller mailer concept that would contain just the necessary communication points. The project was designed to be completed on a short deadline of about one week from initial content drop to print deliverable, a feat we accomplished on the new form factor's first publication. Completed in summer of 2013.
