Branding does not need to be a capitalist enterprise. It's a form of representation that allows you to interact with your audiences, focus on your process, foster community, and deepen the impact of your work. How can we devise a visual identity for marketing communications that embody our values ? How can we design a digital presence that is both complete and concise? In this class we'll ask ourselves hard questions about what impressions we want to make, to whom, and toward what purposes. We'll craft logos, fonts, color palettes, tag lines, elevator pitches, and more.

PechaKucha Night Miami celebrates Women's History Month with a virtual edition focused on The Beauty of Imperfection and the appreciation that most things of value have rough edges upon close inspection. The one-hour program features four remarkable women exploring how imperfection has graced their life journeys with purpose. Three 20 x 20 talks by Rashmi Airan, Caroline de Posada and Eva Ritvo will be accompanied by a musical performance by Adrianna Foster.

Audiences are saying "What is this?" "Why's this on my news feed?" and "Where am I?" Just as the title suggests the show is a fun, off-the-wall take on a talk show based around a series of rapid-fire random questions. Guests are all FTF alumni—both past and present, featuring performers, directors, designers, etc.—all the kinds of people who make FTF possible. This episode features a Miami industry favorite and award-winning director RICKY J. MARTINEZ! This show is our way of celebrating our great and talented artists both on stage and off—and it’s a gig in the pandemic! Random Questions is 1 hour long and will broadcast live on Facebook and YouTube at 8pm on Tues. March. 2nd. facebook.com/ftfshows Sponsored by: Miami Dade County Division of Cultural Affairs, Broward County Cultural Division of Affairs, Funding Arts Broward, National Endowment for the Arts
