In its 8 years of life, AIGAM has been able to become pretty well-known in its field, collaborating with the main musical institutions in Italy, such as the Santa Cecilia National Academy in Rome, the La Scala Theatre Academy in Milan and many Italian Universities and Conservatories.
AIGAM activity started with music courses for 0 -3 y.o. children (called Musicainfasce®), for 3-5 y.o children (called Sviluppo della musicalità®) and for 6+ y.o. children (called Alfabeto della musica®). Nowadays AIGAM also organizes a complete educational and training pathway for music teachers, organizes special concerts for pregnant women and 0-6 y.o. children, as well as conferences and scientific congresses.
AIGAM communicates through its website, publications and promotional materials.
WHAT IS IT ?
Who is the Builder?
A Company? A person?
What is the activity of the Builder?
All interesting things to know in order to sew a “tailor-made” solution … :)
IMPORTANT: If Builder doesn’t want to disclose who is he, no problem. In this case he has 2 possibilities.
∞ Skip the section (sorry, job of the tailor will be a bit harder… :)
∞ Say what he can say
Here are 2 CONCRETE EXAMPLES:
In case Builder is a COMPANY
∞ If Builder has no problem in disclosing his identity (VISIBLE):
NMN -No More Nicotine- is a Brand that promises to counteracts the damages on skin generated by smoking, due to exclusive active principles that avoid that the skin becomes thinner because of nicotine. NMN is distributed in pharmacies and drugstores, its price positioning middle-high; it is mainly promoted through professional endorsement and not massively advertised.
∞ If Builder doesn’t want to disclose his identity (BLIND):
BBrand providing products that promise to counteract the damages on skin generated by smoking, due to exclusive active principles that avoid that the skin becomes thinner because of nicotine. The products are distributed in pharmacies and drugstores with a middle-high price positioning; they are mainly promoted through professional endorsement and not massively advertised.
In case Builder is a PERSON
∞ If Builder has no problem in disclosing his identity (VISIBLE):
My name is Lucy Pallet. I am a student in oceanography at university.
∞ If Builder doesn’t want to disclose his identity (BLIND):
I am a girl who studies oceanography at university.
Simply who is the Builder (in a visible or “blind” way :)
We have noticed one tendency in the submitted Solutions - most of the Creators publish only the logo without showing how they see it in the AIGAM materials.
Please note that the objective of the Pitch is to develop the new image, including new logo, and visualize it through concrete materials like blanks, booklets, business cards, website Home Page.
!!! The end of update !!!
We want the Creators to develop the new image of AIGAM.
The new image must be outstanding and consistent in all physical (e.g. promotional materials) and zero-gravity (e.g. website) pieces of communication.
Deliverables:
∞ Brand logo
∞ Brand elements, including colors, shapes, design elements, font, etc.
WHAT IS IT ?
It is the task that the Builder asks you, the Creator, to accomplish.
Here are 2 CONCRETE EXAMPLES:
∞ to encourage smokers to keep on trying to give up smoking (especially if they’ve already tried and failed before)
∞ Make people understand that I love dolphins by looking at the decoration of my car.
In summary: How to bowl a stike by knocking down 1 pin… this one!
∞ Expecting parents
∞ Parents
∞ Music teachers
∞ Musicians wishing to become teachers
∞ Stakeholders such as partners, sponsors of AIGAM events, journalists, institutional entities
WHAT IS IT?
The people that the Builder wants you to entertain and persuade in order to think, feel or do something (which is exactly what you will read in the next section :)
Here are our 2 CONCRETE EXAMPLES:
∞ Smoking girls and women that would like to quit smoking but can’t. Usually health-conscious adults who care about their esthetical look. They generally feel guilty about that because they know it is harmful and it ruins their health. It’It’s a real problem for them: it’s like “My brain wants something, but my hand cannot respond”. They don’t relate to my brand, they are just waiting for a “helping hand”.
∞ People more or less my age (I am 25 :) who watch me when I am driving my car. I care especially about those who are not yet my friends and people I know. People that I would like to understand something about me (even without knowing me :) They should think “Oh, look at that car, she must be a dolphin-lover”. This way they will know something of me without having talked or chatted with me personally. If it is a guy in another car, and he doesn’t like the way I decorated my car, then he will stay away (and I will not waste time :)
In summary: Get inside their skin!
To understand the importance of music in their children’s life, starting from the beginning and to perceive the AIGAM offer as a great opportunity to grow as a musical person. To look for information and subscribe to an AIGAM children’s music course.
Music teachers:
To understand that the AIGAM educational and training pathway is serious, officially recognized, and that it can change their professional and musical life.
Musicians wishing to become teachers: To understand that teaching music trough Music Learning Theory means to fully apply their personal music skills and talent in their daily teaching work. They will remain musicians and expand their musicianship. To look for information and subscribe an AIGAM course for music teachers.
Stakeholders: To understand the perspective AIGAM of and to have the will to cooperate with it.
WHAT IS IT?
The one single thing that Builder wants you to persuade his target audience of.
Here are 2 CONCRETE EXAMPLES:
∞Every cigarette you smoke is causing damage to your looks now.
∞I am a girl who likes dolphins and the sea.
In summary: Get it inside their brain!
∞ AIGAM history, collaborations with the most serious institutions in its field, being the first offering courses for very young children in Italy and the only institution recognized by Gordon.
∞ AIGAM methodology, which is innovative and coherent with the results of the main pedagogical and neuro-scientific theories/researches about the child development and learning processes.
Please note that we do not want to emphasize in any way extra-musical aspects such as “Music makes you more intelligent or social or mathematic...” and we do not want to advertise the idea that “your child will become a musical genius”.
WHAT IS IT?
It is the key to achieve the objective. It is what supports the Builder’s proposition. So, it is linked to the proposition and is the logical explanation that will make the target audience believing to it.
Here are 2 CONCRETE EXAMPLES:
∞ Smokers have thinner skin than non-smokers. A recent study took several pairs of identical twins where 1 twin was a lifelong smoker and the other had never smoked. The smokers’ skin was a quarter thinner than that of non-smokers and in some cases there were differences of up to 40%. The presence of thinning-block anti-oxidants counteracts the effect of the nicotine on the skin.
∞ I am originally from a village on the sea side; but I live very far away from the sea. Many years ago I moved with my parents far away from the sea where I grew up. The sea is the only thing I’I’m missing in this place. That’s why I have both my flat and my office full of dolphins, which remind me about my hometown and that I collect maniacally. I have tried to go out with many people and discovered that those who don’t share my passion just don’t understand me. So, better they know about it at 1st glance!
In summary: if you are looking for logics… it’s here!
