• The purpose of this study was to analyze the current state of digital publishing and establish a framework for the design and development of digital magazines
• This study analyzed 128 digital magazines through the lens of affordance theory
• Twenty affordances were identified and categorized into four distinct groups: extend content, community involvement, utility, and entertainment
• A nonlinear relationship between the number of digital subscriptions and the variety of affordances implemented in a magazine was identified
• The 20 affordances identified were analyzed against three previously established frameworks, including Gibson's original categorization of perceived, hidden, and false affordances.
District.TO is a creative agency that connects local charities with high school students to create buzzworthy,marketing campaigns while providing educational workshops and memorable volunteer experiences to students.
Small charities face several limitations in reaching a larger audience. We contact local charities that need assistance with brand awareness, and conncet them to high school programs with curriculums in technology, creative works and social causes. Our team facilitates workshops that introduces students to the principles of design thinking, production, and social venture practices. Finally, under our guidance, students develop campaign ideas for the local charity and put their ideas into action by producing these campaigns themselves. The end result is a memorable volunteer and learning opportunity for each student while helping a local charity create brand awareness. We believe that involving students in social ventures will have a lasting impression on their perspective, help build character and motivate continued social action.
While larger organizations are investing in marketing and branding strategy, District.TO was created to bridge the gap for the smaller organizations who have little to no marketing budget. We are using Canon technology as a catalyst in this project, giving participants access to industry standard media production tools that create high quality campaigns. Together, we create cool stuff to do good stuff.
