The artists are here to design and produce official college publications, advertising, promotional pieces, and other of departmental marketing needs. We assist in developing strong and effective materials that maintain the college's branding and graphic identity.
In order to maintain consistency in use of Amarillo College's brand and to ensure branding standards are upheld, the Amarillo College logo may be used for approved Amarillo College activities. Permission must first be obtained from the Communications & Marketing Department. Any unauthorized or deliberate misuse of Amarillo College related identification elements will not be tolerated. View more Branding Guidelines on the Communications & Marketing Home Page and review the Brand Standards page.
For the department to function efficiently and to guarantee completion of your departments project, a minimum of two weeks notice is required by the Communications & Marketing staff. This time frame includes layout and production of the piece, proofing and printing. You are responsible for supplying the content and proofing of the project. Please keep in mind that more complex projects will require more time.
Whether just beginning a project, following up, or inquiring about promotional give away items, it is helpful to make an appointment with the appropriate Communications & Marketing staff member before coming to the office to ensure that he/she will be in a position to speak with you.
You should anticipate additional time for non-digital materials that require external production, including printed pieces, environmental signage, wraps, and promotional materials.
As the Communications & Marketing team has grown, along with the number of projects and events managed across all campuses, we’ve created a new Production Request form to encompass all components our entire team provides.
Production components, event management, promotional item requests, advertising, website updates, and more are all included in this one form. For those campaigns or events that need a multi-faceted marketing approach, this enables us to maximize our time and resources.
If this is a New Project or a Full Campaign, requiring multiple components for your project, we recommend you meet with a member of the Communications & Marketing Team to evaluate and discuss the most effective methods of meeting your goals and budget requirements. You can check a box to have the C&M Team schedule a meeting with you to tailor strategies and the most effective channels to reach your target audience(s).
