Vector Illustration






This is my vector illustration. This project by far has been my favorite in the course up to this point. While it was incredibly challenging and time consuming, I am proud of my final product. I decided keep the bottom half of the background; however, I chose to make the top half of the background one solid color and used the gradient tool. The most challenging part of this project was replicating the rough texture of the tree. Also, I had to be incredibly patient and use the pencil tool to  make the panda look furry. Overall, I am very satisfied with my vector illustration and am happy that I am learning more about Illustrator and the different tools available within the program.

The Future of Marketing is Real-Time

The emergence of real-time content as a marketing strategy has gained momentum over the past several years. Facebook, Snapchat, and Instagram are among the most popular social media platforms that have utilized this booming trend. More recently, the ability to live stream via different outlets have boosted engagement for companies across the world. Real-time marketing stems from delivering the appropriate content at the proper and respective time. Furthermore, it is a way in which a company can react or respond to current events and use the situation to their advantage through the production of creative and original material. A prime example of this may be seen through Oreos tweet during the third quarter of Super Bowl XLVII in February of 2013. Following the power outage at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome during the game, Oreo’s social media team immediately posted a tweet with an ad captioned, “Power Out? The ad attached to the tweet featured a picture of an Oreo in a dully lit room...

Artificial Intelligence: The Future of Business

Emerging technology such as artificial intelligence (AI) is the buzz of the business world. Marketing is one specific industry profoundly influenced by this new development. Artificial intelligence utilizes computer algorithms to gain knowledge, make inferences, and predict different patterns or changes. While there is much discussion surrounding this topic, most companies have not implemented new software into their marketing strategies yet. In a survey conducted by PointSource, an IT service management company, 679 senior-level decision makers were asked about their adoption of emerging technologies. The majority of those surveyed stated that are not currently using artificial intelligence, blockchain, or voice- activated technologies. Approximately 40% of respondents said that they were in the discovery phase of AI intelligence, and 33% responded that they are considering possible vendors at the moment. On the other hand, only 21% of respondents had selected a vendor for AI a...
