Using the Logo Standing out How we connect with our audience has a lot to do with how we present ourselves as a brand. But branding is more than just a name and a logo. It s a representation of who we are and why we re different. When we communicate about our university, the right words, images and design can reveal who we are which is just as important as what we do. Connecting as a brand Branding is about building a relationship with our audience. When we talk about what we do in a consistent, clear and accessible way, we lay a foundation of familiarity and trust. Whether addressing adult students, high school grads, parents of students, high school guidance counselors, employers looking for recruits or our own employees, creating a strong connection by addressing their unique needs is key. In order for our branding to contribute to our future success, everything bearing the DeVry University name or shield should follow these guidelines. By carefully managing our brand, we can cultivate our presence, create enduring relationships and stand apart from our competition. 2

Background Art: Blue Placement of and brush settings for blue glow 20 TO CREATE THE BACKGROUND ART IN BLUE, continued 3. Add the blue glow behind the shield. The blue glow is created using a brush that is the width of the shield, 1800 px (in the example above) with a hardness of 0%. The brush opacity should be set to 80%, and the color of the glow is 50% cyan. The glow should be centered on the shield, touching the top (dashed line above shows placement). Move the layer containing the glow behind the shield layer in the Photoshop file.

Background Art: Blue/Square 21 Add accent shading in upper left and lower right TO CREATE THE BACKGROUND ART IN BLUE, continued 4. (Square) Add accent shading to the background. In order to give the art another layer of dimension, an accent shadow is added to the upper left and lower right corners of the artwork. a. Add vertical and horizontal guides at the midpoint of the file. b. Measure the overall dimension of your background artwork. Add additional guides extending out to the sides, above and below the midpoint guides to outline an area 25% the size of your background artwork. (For instance, if your artwork is 8 x 8, your centered area will be 2 x 2.) 4a. c. Using the gradient tool on a new layer in Photoshop, drag from the upper left corner of your artwork to the upper left corner of the centered area (the first intersection of your guides). Build your gradient from 100% black to 0% black. Be sure to use 100% black as opposed to a 4-color black mix. d. Repeat the same process from the lower right corner of your artwork to the lower right corner of the centered area. e. Set the gradient layers to Multiply with a opacity of 75%. Place the gradient layers behind both the shield and the glow layers. 4b 4c

Background Art: Blue/Rectangle 22 Add accent shading in upper left and lower right TO CREATE THE BACKGROUND ART IN BLUE, continued 4. (Rectangle) Add accent shading to the background. In order to give the art another layer of dimension, an accent shadow is added to the upper left and lower right corners of the artwork. a. Add a horizontal guide at the midpoint of the file. b. Measure the overall height of your background artwork. Add additional guides extending above and below the midpoint guides to outline an area 25% the size of your background artwork. 4a. c. Using the gradient tool on a new layer in Photoshop, drag from the lower right corner of your artwork to the bottom guide at a 45 degree angle. Build your gradient from 100% black to 0% black. Be sure to use 100% black as opposed to a 4-color black mix. d. Set the upper left gradient layer to Multiply at an opacity of 65%. Set the lower right gradient layer to Multiply at an opacity of 45%. e. Place gradient layers behind both the shield and the glow layers. 4b 4c

In order to give the art another layer of dimension, an accent shadow is added to the upper left and lower right corners of the artwork. a. Using the gradient tool on a new layer in Photoshop, drag along a 45 degree angle from the upper left corner of your artwork to lower edge of the artwork. On a new layer, drag along a 45 degree angle from the lower right corner to the upper edge of the artwork for the opposing gradient. Build your gradient from 100% black to 0% black. Be sure to use 100% black as opposed to a 4-color black mix. b. Set the upper left gradient layer to Multiply at an opacity of 65%. Set the lower right gradient layer to Multiply at an opacity of 45%. c. Place gradient layers behind both the shield and the glow layers. 23 4a. 4b

Background Art: Blue Noise layer settings 24 TO CREATE THE BACKGROUND ART IN BLUE, continued 5. Add a Noise layer over all layers, except the blue shield. To help soften the gradients that are used on the background art, a layer of Noise is added. Create a new layer in Photoshop and color it with a flood of CMYK grey (50, 50, 50, 50). Set the Layers effect to Overlay with opacity and fill at 100%. Apply a Noise effect to that layer with a 2% Uniform, Monochromatic setting. Place Noise layer below both the shield and glow layers, but above the gradient layers. Note: there will not be a noticeable difference in the file, but the Noise layer will help prevent banding of the gradients during printing.

Background Art: with Logo Effects applied to the logo in Photoshop 25 TO CREATE THE BACKGROUND ART IN BLUE, continued 6. Applying the DeVry University logo. If the DeVry University logo is added to the background art, use the reversed CMYK logo. It is necessary to apply a drop shadow to the logo in order to separate the blue in the logo from the blue in the background. Apply a Drop Shadow with shown Structure settings. The distance, spread and size of the drop shadow may need to be adjusted depending on the size of the artwork. Always maintain the ratio of 1 : 3 : 6 for the drop shadow.

Photography Selecting the right image Photography is a powerful communication tool that enhances and supports the brand. It should be straightforward, modern, smart and most of all relevant. All of our communications are delivered in the DeVry University voice. Since we provide a wide range of documents and speak to an even wider range of people, the DeVry University voice must accommodate many tones and styles. But the resulting content is always: Sensible (common sense) Straightforward Confident Honest Human Authentic 50 Every aspect of our communications should reinforce these qualities. Photography is a great way to express the personality of DeVry University and make it come alive. The look and feel of the photography should feel like a series of caught moments and will be editorial in nature. It should feel real and genuine and never forced or staged. As much as possible, make sure shots of people are in environments that can give context to the visual. The images should tell a story and capture the expression of emotion. Don t use photography that is boring and expected. This will look like stock images and create a feeling of a generic university. The students, teachers and professionals in the photography should be a good cross-section of middle America with a range of age, gender and race. Photography for digital and collateral will be shot in a similar style, but occasionally they will have specific needs. For example, images used for digital: Need wide panoramic frame to left and right, bleed out to white or light preferable. Lighter colored backgrounds (text will live there), not too cluttered. What the subject is doing tells the story. For collateral the visuals will need to be, for the most part, tighter in and focused.

Photography Please Don t DeVry University serves real people. We re down-to-earth and approachable. Imagery that is gimmicky, clichéd or overly staged is inconsistent with the real-life of our brand. 51 DeVry University is friendly, not silly. We prefer that you use DeVry University authentic photography, but if you do need to use stock imagery, steer clear of imagery that looks like stock. Avoid using stock illustration. Avoid using people as metaphors for concepts like foresight, growth or teamwork. It dehumanizes them and is contrary to our goal of authentic imagery. Avoid computer-generated imagery depicting unrealistic situations. Avoid colorizing photos. It removes the subject from the natural look or authentic representation that DeVry University is trying to achieve.
