Introduction

In the event that the health authorities announce a new period of confinement due to the evolution of the health crisis caused by COVID-19, the teaching staff will promptly communicate how this may effect the teaching methodologies and activities as well as the assessment.


In this Emotional Marketing course we will introduce the student in the world of design related to emotions. In this five session course the student must present a work with the form of personal graphic CV.

In this final work we have to perceive what the student wanted to communicate using a graphic form and related to his personal emotions.

The final work will be presented during the last session and we will value the knowledge acquired in the treatment of images with programs like Photoshop and Indesign.

The skills  acquired in the use of this programs will be very useful as a tool for the rest of the career.
