Consistency in font and color is an important part of building a brand identity. Using a common set of fonts and colors signals that we are all part of the same family. In addition, a consistent set of fonts and colors helps keep you reader focused and attentive to your message.
Op-Ed submission This is an example of an op-ed broken down into pieces. It has an introduction to the topic, or an overall statement; it presents a problem; it gives specific examples of the problem; and it has, MOST IMPORTANTLY, a call to action.
These assets are designed to help you properly brand your videos. There are several branded openings to choose from, and a branded closing with a call to action. Please visit the programmatic branded video assets page for assets related to your program or institute.
What is an op-ed? -Excerpted from Karen Nikos-Rose, UC Davis Strategic Communications Op-eds became a reality late in the 20th century, seen by newspapers as a way to give people a chance to write opinions, rather than just paid columnists and editors of the newspaper.
Strategic Communications relies on several key tools to effectively develop and distribute content. We encourage you to use them to facilitate development and promotion of your content. Contact Strategic Communications to find out more about using these tools.
