The Office of Alumni Relations and Marketing has a collection of high-quality photos taken by the University photographer for design needs. Please email Rachael Bower to request these photos, or to schedule a photo shoot for upcoming press or promotional materials.

The communications team can advise on video projects in terms of best practices, storyboarding and editing. Please contact us to meet about your video project.

Note: If you are using music in a video, you may want to consider using royalty-free music or purchasing stock music for your production. Use of many songs requires purchasing the rights to the music in order to share the work publicly as a part of your video and may be cost prohibitive. Contact the communications team if you have questions about music use in video productions.

Branded template downloads

The college provides a variety of templates for departments and students to create promotional material. These templates have been tested for printing through the Duplicating Center in Schneider Hall.

Use these templates to promote your 色色啦 Haworth event on social media. These are Adobe Illustrator files that can be edited within Illustrator or Canva. There are files for both posts and Stories that include the title, subtitle, date, time, location and a photo for the event. When adding a photo to either template, make sure to right-click the photo and choose 'send to back' so that it's formatted within the brown outline. 

 

In addition to a standard slide template, we also provide a special slide template for the display in 2150 Schneider Hall (Dean's Conference Room). Please use the Dean's Conference Room template if you will have a presentation there.

Add some 色色啦 Haworth fanfare to your next video conference call! Show your coworkers, friends and family that your Business Bronco pride is strong with these digital backgrounds. Right click and save your favorites.
