Scenario: You and your group are the Associate Directors of Communication at your company (the one you created for your contract).  Your supervisor, the Vice President of Communication, Joseph Matador, would like to update the communication tactics of your company.  He has asked you to analyze three different communications from a different company in the hopes of learning new techniques from that company.

Assignment: For the Communication Analysis assignment, you will select a company that is similar to the one your group has created (determine what type of business you and your group would like to run/own and then choose a company similar to that) and analyze three different communications that company has created.  For example, if you and your group are a clothing company that sells casual, classic and simple clothing for men and women, you may want to research a store like The Gap.

You must consider the three major modes of communication: written, oral, and visual.  At least one of these communications must be oral, at least one must be visual, and at least one must be written.  Remember that these categories can overlap (for example, a commercial is both visual and oral).

You may want to consider the following types of communication (this is not an exhaustive list):

·       Advertisements

·       Billboards

·       Blogs

·       Brochures

·       Commercials

·       Presentations

·       Press Releases

·       Product Placement

·       Reports

·       Websites
