The tone of voice triangle
Is humor part of your brand’s personality? Do you wonder if it should be? When humor fits with your brand’s online identity, it can be a powerful social media tool. In this article I’ll show you examples of three ways you can use humor to grab attention. Define Your Online Tone Humor is an excellent addition to your social media toolbox. If you want to use humor as a social media marketing tactic, you’ll find good examples later in this article, but first let’s talk about the importance of defining your online voice (or tone). Which two elements fit best with your brand’s voice? I first heard about the tone of voice triangle from Bruce Daisley. To define your social media personality, choose the two elements that best reflect your brand’s tone. As an example of how tone affects humor, let’s look at Bunsen Burger, a gourmet burger restaurant in Dublin. If we apply the tone of voice triangle to their business, Fun and Give Info are their strong points. #1: Have Fun With Your Fans Over to You
Principe KISS
Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. Le principe KISS proscrit les seules complexités non indispensables. Paradoxalement, tenter d'utiliser des moyens simples pour résoudre un problème complexe peut conduire à une complexité encore plus grande. Il s'agit d'un écueil classique auquel peut conduire une application trop naïve du principe KISS. La complexité, souvent utile pour assurer de bonnes performances, est en effet elle-même une source de coûts de conception et de maintenance, ainsi qu'une source potentielle d'erreurs. L'idée est de ne pas optimiser quoi que ce soit avant de maîtriser totalement une version simple de ce que l'on crée. Variantes en anglais et traductions[modifier | modifier le code] Cette expression serait due à l'ingénieur prodige des ateliers aéronautiques Lockheed[1], Clarence Johnson, responsable des Skunk Works. Appelé KISS principle en anglais, l'acronyme KISS est décliné en : En informatique[modifier | modifier le code] On[Qui ?] ↑ (en) Ben R.
hero's journey
"A Practical Guide to Joseph Cambell’s The Hero with a Thousand Faces" by Christopher Vogler © 1985 “There are only two or three human stories, and they go on repeating themselves as fiercely as if they had never happened before.” In the long run, one of the most influential books of the 20th century may turn out to be Joseph Campbell’s THE HERO WITH A THOUSAND FACES. The book and the ideas in it are having a major impact on writing and story-telling, but above all on movie-making. The ideas Campbell presents in this and other books are an excellent set of analytical tools. With them you can almost always determine what’s wrong with a story that’s floundering; and you can find a better solution almost any story problem by examining the pattern laid out in the book. There’s nothing new in the book. Campbell’s contribution was to gather the ideas together, recognize them, articulate them, and name them. This accounts for the universal power of such stories. 1.) 2.) 3.) 4.) 5.) 6.) 7.) 8.)

Then get him in trouble.” -- Bruce Coville While a great story will keep an adult “with the writer,” a great character is what children crave. When I was a wee-little music fan, you could find me huddled around a record player singing about rock-n-rollin’ all night and partying every day. I want my Mtv! Videos flooded the television! Find Music Hopefully you have a nice music library on your phone or iPod. Teach and Model The idea is for the students to quickly draw/name/note while the tune spins.
