How can I make my blog instantly recognizable?
How do I develop a visual identity for my blog?


Session Description:
There’s more to your blog’s identity than just the logo. This workshop will provide a step-by-step guide to developing a visual identity for your blog. Whether you have a design background or are working with a designer this workshop will walk you through the process. Upon completion of this workshop you’ll be able to make informed decisions about the direction of your blog’s visual identity.

Why Candace thinks you need to hear it live:
Bloggers can experience challenges with developing an instantly recognizable identity for their brand. A blogger without a design/advertising background may struggle with effectively communicating with a designer about what it is they need. This session will identify all the steps in creating a visual identity for a brand (research, graphic elements, typography etc.) and address the ways the visual identity translates on different platforms (social media, website, print). A live conference format is needed because the subject matter requires discussion and interaction to clearly express the components of the workshop.
