The development of digital technologies has helped to redefine the mental structures, cognitive processes and symbolic dimension of individuals, with a decisive impact on the modes of advertising communication. Traditional media have been replaced by digital media, which base their logic on continuous interaction between communication actors. The online advertising scene is now presided over by large global platforms (social media, communities, virtual worlds) that guide creative, production and business logics. Learning about such platforms, learning to understand their dynamics, tools and innovative possibilities for the development of new languages, containers and content is the training objective of this course.
