The success of any visual storytelling or visual marketing strategy relies mainly on what the audience perceives. Today, I want to go back to basics and talk about how all the things we see can be associated with simple shapes and how the use of these shapes affects the outcome of our strategies. Anything and everything, from elements in a photograph to a certain typography can be analyzed in terms of shape. All the bits and pieces inside our presentations, infographics and visual strategies are telling their own story. It is up to us to put these pieces together in a way that creatively and effectively tells our story. Read more at https://visme.co/blog/geometric-meanings/#HftuMFjSARtsZaVg.99]]>

Although you probably know the difference between serif and sans-serif fonts, typography is actually so much more interesting than that. Did you know that letters can be dissected into parts as if they were a puzzle? Like people, fonts have personalities, moods, styles—and even anatomical features! In this �ݺ�ߣshare, we will look at the different parts that make up letters and their real-life counterparts, visualized in the guide below with some fun analogies.

Younger generations (mostly Millennials and Generation Z) use an emoji language in which they communicate using only, or mostly, emoji. Some emoji are pretty obvious in their meaning, like smiley faces, frowning faces and hearts. Other emoji have acquired double meanings, like the eggplant and peach emoji. This new emoji language has become so important that there are now emoji translators, most famous of all being Keith Broni. His work involves helping businesses use emoji properly to avoid the dreaded “emoji fail.” Read more at https://visme.co/blog/emoji-marketing-guide/#8vGw0OTFWA0OyAiT.99]]>

Design stereotypes are everywhere. One of the most noticeable is the one that separates designs into feminine and masculine. Even though designers tend to follow the feminine / masculine stereotype to reach the right audience, gender-neutral design is becoming more relevant.

How can you make your designs more gender-neutral? By finding a balance between masculine and feminine. Let’s look at the different ways that the feminine / masculine stereotype manifests itself in different aspects of design. With this knowledge, you can make informed decisions about the overall look and feel of your designs and how gender-neutral you want them to be.

What is the most important element of your design? What do you want audiences to notice second or third? Visual hierarchy is a method of organizing design elements in order of importance. In other words, it’s a set of principles that influence the order in which we notice what we see. These golden rules help us compose designs that are aesthetically pleasing and attract the right attention. Utilizing certain hierarchy principles can help even non-designers create successful visual presentations that are both efficient and effective.

Almost 50 years ago, a Scottish academic named David Abercrombie1 told the world that while we speak with our vocal organs, we converse with our entire bodies. The study of what we now refer to as paralanguage soon made its way out of peer-reviewed journals and into the mainstream world of motivational speakers and self-help coaches. What is paralanguage? And is it true that our bodies give away our secrets even though we have thoroughly researched and prepared our presentations? Linguistic scholars in the last half century have concluded that communication goes far beyond the words we speak and into the realm of inferred messages and vocal qualifiers. In this post, we go over the definition of paralanguage, according to scholars, and look at how you can apply this knowledge to deliver more effective and convincing presentations.

0 What Is Paralanguage? And How Can You Use It to Give Better Presentations? /slideshow/what-is-paralanguage-and-how-can-you-use-it-to-give-better-presentations/78427200 what-is-paralanguage2-170731203711
We speak paralanguage when we gasp, sigh, clear our throats, change our tone, whisper or shout, emphasize certain words, wave our hands, frown or smile, laugh or cry, string vocal identifiers like un-huh and ah-hah between our words, or speak faster or slower. Mehrabian suggested that when people speak to us, we absorb a mere seven percent of what they are saying through the words they use. We derive 55 percent of the meaning from their body gestures and posture and physical clues, and 38 percent from the tone and inflections of the words they present. We cannot trust our bodies to speak as one with our words. They will betray us, with breathless gasps, with hurried words that depict our nervousness, with incredulous expressions even while we nod agreement. In our everyday communications, most of us use paralanguage as a kind of shortcut to delivering certain messages. We use our arms and hands to say good-bye, we encourage people to come closer by beckoning with our finger, we hold our hands up, palms forward, to tell people to back off, and we shrug to indicate we don’t know the answer. In speeches, by altering our tone and using gestures, we can highlight what we are saying and emphasize what we want our audiences to remember. The one thing that paralanguage does not do effectively is cross cultural barriers. Gestures that may mean one thing in Western cultures, for example, may mean something completely different in the Far East or Middle Eastern cultures. If you make presentations, you need to be aware of the impact of your paralanguage. It’s a good idea to practice your remarks in front of a mirror, discerning your natural gestures and facial expressions and determining if they are augmenting your message, or detracting from it.

We cannot trust our bodies to speak as one with our words. They will betray us, with breathless gasps, with hurried words that depict our nervousness, with incredulous expressions even while we nod agreement. In our everyday communications, most of us use paralanguage as a kind of shortcut to delivering certain messages. We use our arms and hands to say good-bye, we encourage people to come closer by beckoning with our finger, we hold our hands up, palms forward, to tell people to back off, and we shrug to indicate we don’t know the answer. In speeches, by altering our tone and using gestures, we can highlight what we are saying and emphasize what we want our audiences to remember. The one thing that paralanguage does not do effectively is cross cultural barriers. Gestures that may mean one thing in Western cultures, for example, may mean something completely different in the Far East or Middle Eastern cultures. If you make presentations, you need to be aware of the impact of your paralanguage. It’s a good idea to practice your remarks in front of a mirror, discerning your natural gestures and facial expressions and determining if they are augmenting your message, or detracting from it.
