Branding goals

A strong brand stands for what others can’t, don’t, or won’t.

3

The Cary Academy brand must:

> Reflect our mission

> Showcase our activities

> Compel people to affiliate

> Set us apart

> Capture the spirit of Cary Academy


Why branding matters

The Cary Academy brand is so much more than a logo or tagline.

4

Our brand is a reflection of everything we do, say, print, broadcast, and post. Curious is not a reinvention of Cary Academy; it is a fresh, forwardlooking expression of our foundational values. Every member of our community is responsible for how the Cary Academy brand lives and grows. Every time we interact with prospective families, community partners, potential donors, or the general public, we influence perceptions of the school and our community. As brand ambassadors, we must present a cohesive, consistent message. This toolkit is designed to help you do exactly that.

Brand statement

Brand statement:

7

Welcome to Cary Academy, Where one question leads to another and another, which leads to insights, epiphanies, and breakthroughs, which lead to other countries, new friends, and great adventures, which lead to some of the world’s finest colleges and universities, where new questions lead to more questions, and adventures, and ideas, ad infinitum. Curious?


Curious

Let’s talk about Curious: What makes Cary Academy curious? Inquisitive students who are always eager to discover new things. Teachers who constantly seek better ways to engage minds. The challenging, yet comfortable, environment. And academic excellence that isn’t defined by class rank or GPA. (To name just a few things.)

8

Curiosity is the opposite of dull and apathetic. Curious people are happier, and therefore more successful (it’s a scientific fact). In a nutshell: The number-one enemy of learning is boredom. Curiosity bests boredom. In other words, curiosity is essential for effective, active, engaged learning. Unsure if something fits the curious brand? Ask yourself, “Does this story/example/article, etc., C.U.T. I.T.?” Creative: Is it imaginative and original? Unique: Is it surprising? Is it something other schools can’t or won’t claim? Thought-provoking: Is it interesting and engaging? Intelligent: Is it smart? Does it convey academic excellence? Trailblazing: Is it innovative, inventive, and impressive?


Design approach

How to look Curious:

9

A curious mind is an active mind. Our design should engage viewers. Draw them in. Pique interest. Excite speculation. To that end, we’re using details like the custom yellow typographic rules (genomic sets, pi to a certain decimal, binary code, question marks, etc.). These small details may be glossed over at first, but upon second look, create curiosity in the reader. Sticky notes suggest annotation and provide additional content. The design is multi-layered, like a curious mind. Images are gridded then disrupted to suggest an orderly mind introduced to new ideas. The design aims to strike a balance between modern and traditional. It should reflect our classical campus architecture and liberal arts underpinnings as well as our leading edge — innovative pedagogical techniques. When you design, ask: Does this make you curious?


Cary Academy in Words COPY DEVELOPMENT


Copy development

Brand personalities are communicated through voice.

11

The way you talk about Cary Academy shapes the way people feel about it. In other words, you’re not just passing on information when you write an email or develop a print piece. You’re illustrating the ways that Cary Academy contributes to the community as a leading institution locally, regionally, and globally. We want people to perceive Cary Academy as smart, innovative, and strong. Your writing should be confident and energetic. It should not be arrogant or smug. This campaign is intended to make an impression so that people who don’t know Cary Academy will notice and remember. It is also designed so that those who think they know us will see us accurately. The number-one rule? Don’t be boring. If you’re bored as you write, your audience will be bored, too.


Copy development

12

Tone depends on audience.

No matter whom we’re talking to, it is essential to maintain a consistent voice. Naturally, that voice is nuanced and adjusts as needed. The formality of tone shifts based on the audience. That said, there should be a common spirit and consistency that connects all of the Cary Academy communications. Below is an example of the spectrum of tone based on audience.

Informal

Formal Current and prospective students and families

Faculty/staff

Alumni

Prospective faculty

Major donors


Copy development

The Cary Academy brand relies on storytelling.

13

Great stories are the lifeblood of the communications strategy. The stories we choose (about students, alumni, awards, faculty) illustrate what we mean by Curious. Our stories define the brand for internal and external audiences. Stories demonstrate the impact we make on the world, define what we value, and explain why we do what we do. Our stories must be compelling, surprising, and dynamic. Stories + accolades = credibility. Pairing accolades like awards or rankings with a story lends credibility to the school’s reputation in a less “braggy” way. There’s a big difference between “Aren’t we great?” and “U.S. News & World Report says we’re great.” Keep it short and sweet. Studies show that people remember only three to five pieces of information that they read or hear. (In fact, more information can result in your audience remembering less.) So, if people aren’t already interested in Cary Academy, too much information may cause them to tune out. Serve up just enough content to make your audience want to take the next step.


Copy development

Know your audience.

14

When writing, ask yourself: Why are we telling this story? Who am I talking to? What are the three (or fewer) things the reader absolutely must know in order to take the next step? What do we want this story to make people feel, think, and do? Be a good conversationalist. Good copy sounds more like how people speak and less like how they write. Sometimes, for impact, short sentences may not even be “real” sentences. Eliminate complicated clauses and extra words. Your message will be stronger. Your reader will get to the point faster. Free yourself to start sentences with “and” and use plenty of dashes – because that’s the way people think and speak. In bursts!


Copy development

Surprise your audience.

15

Don’t be afraid to be provocative. Use punchy headlines that jolt an audience. Avoid generic language that doesn’t tell your reader anything specific about the school or that any institution anywhere could say. Make them curious and eager to learn more. Give people the information they’re looking for or surprise them with something they don’t know. Our goal is to educate the audience and hold their interest. Grab their attention and don’t let go.


Cary Academy in Media STORY VERSIONING


Story versioning

17

Email Stories should be slightly tweaked and re-formatted based on platform. Email is a good first touchpoint and an effective way for a story to be told initially. Use story-based emails to share examples of the Curious spirit with the internal and external Cary Academy community.

Her curious journey started with a love for basketball. That led Uzma Rawn 02 to volunteer with Cary Academy’s boys’ team. That inspired her to explore the business of pro sports and earn her degree in sports management. Which took her to the NBA. And in 2015, it was a sponsorship deal she negotiated for the Portland Trailblazers that landed her on Forbes’ elite list. Lesson learned: Follow your curiosity.

Story versioning

Social media When sharing on social media, edit stories to be shorter and to take on a more casual tone. Since social media platforms allow for more user interaction, add a question or call to action (like “Where will yours lead?”) to prompt the reader to engage in the comments.

18

It all started with managing the Chargers boys’ basketball team. Now, Uzma Rawn ’02 has made a name for herself in the pro sports world, and was even featured on Forbes’ elite 30 Under 30 list. Her curiosity took her to the NBA. Where will yours lead? #CACurious

Website An easy way to share stories on the website is by using the “Spotlight” feature on the homepage. Pair a short, curiosity-piquing headline and subhead with an attentiongrabbing photo. Include a link to a more detailed article which emulates the content of the email version.

Newsletter For an alumni story like this one, keep it short and sweet in the newsletter with a blurb in the “Alumni Notes” section. When the story is not based on an alum, use your best discretion to determine if the story needs to be included in the newsletter, if also already appearing in numerous other formats. The example shown uses the current newsletter design. The “Alumni Notes” section will need to be redesigned to reflect the recommendations shown on page 76.

Cary Academy’s Visual Identity System DESIGN


Logo

The Cary Academy logo is comprised of a temple mark plus a wordmark. While the temple mark may be used separately from the wordmark, the wordmark is never used as a stand-alone device, with the exception of promotional items that are too small for the temple mark to reproduce legibly. The wordmark typeface is Gotham Bold. This is the only place this font is used. Do not use it in any institutional publications or media. The pairing of modern typography with the classical Greek temple speaks to Cary Academy’s position as an innovative leader in education. Do not attempt to reconstruct the logo. Always use the files provided.

22


Mark

The temple mark is an evolution of the previous mark. It has been simplified for greater scalabilty and legibility. It may be used without the wordmark as a stand-alone graphic. Do not use this mark to create other logos.

23


Clear space

When placing the logo, be sure to leave proper clear space around it for visibility and contrast. Do not “crowd� the logo with other graphic or textual elements. Leave clear space that is at least the height of the temple on all four sides of the logo. There may be times when maintaining proper clear space is not possible. However, try to follow these guidelines whenever you can. These guidelines are only minimum clear space requirements. More space around the logo is always encouraged.

24

Use the height of the temple to determine the clear space around the logo.


Preferred uses

Whenever possible, the logo should be rendered with PMS 301 blue and PMS 116 yellow.

25

DO

The reversed-out version provided shows the wordmark in white. Never reverse-out the temple mark. All single-color versions are considered specialty logos (not the preferred institutional logo). Approved versions are provided on page 28. stacked version

Photo or solid color

horizontal version

Violations

In order to maintain a strong identity, it is important to never compromise the integrity of the Cary Academy brand with unapproved logo variations.

26

DO NOT

use unauthorized colors

combine elements to create other logos

change the order of the temple mark and the wordmark

cannibalize elements of the mark to create new marks, logos, wordmarks, or illustrations

Cary Academy stretch the logo in any way

alter the mark or wordmark

Curiosity lives at

use the logo as part of a headline

reverse the logo out of a color in an unauthorized fashion


Two-color specialty use logos

The logo may be printed in two colors on a white substrate or a dark blue substrate on merchandise only. When it is printed on white, the ink colors will be PMS 301 and PMS 116. When it is printed on the dark blue the ink colors will be PMS 116 and white. The logo may not be printed in two colors on a yellow substrate since the outer ring will disappear.

One-color specialty use logos

For merchandising purposes, the logo may be printed in white on a colored substrate. It may also be printed one-color (black or PMS 301) on white, yellow, or light value neutral colors (for example: gray or khaki). In this case, PMS 301 is preferred.

Usage on photos

The Cary Academy logo may be placed on a photo that has a large area of negative or uncluttered space (figure 1). When a photo has too many elements to isolate the logo completely, a white box should be used to help it stand out.

Core palette

Cary Academy’s new core palette features a nuanced dark blue as well as a lighter blue. The dark blue is a shade darker than what was previously used to create a more established and sophisticated look. There is also a light blue to provide a tonal bridge between the dark blue and yellow.

Secondary palette

For most communications, you will use the core palette. However, for multi-page pieces and social media posts, there is a secondary palette that provides accent colors you may use along with the core colors. Never use the secondary palette without establishing the core palette first. The secondary colors should never be the dominant color in a layout. Please note that the coated and uncoated versions of the blue and teal are different and that the CMYK breakouts are not straight conversions by number, but are more optically correct process versions of the PMS.

Color usage

White should be the dominant color for all pieces without large background photos. Cary Academy’s school colors are the yellow and darker blue. The lighter blue is the main color for headlines. The darker blue is reserved for emphasis of key words or phrases. The gray is used almost exclusively for text. Avoid using black except in small areas for emphasis.

38

core palette color distribution

No more than two secondary colors should be used at a time in any particular execution. In multi-page communications, whether print or digital, all of the secondary colors may be used, but no more than two per spread.

Fonts: Minion

Minion is a classic, old-style typeface designed for Adobe in 1990 by Robert Slimbach. Its slightly condensed design excels as a text font, allowing more characters per line than most old-style fonts. Minion is one of the most robust families, with a huge library of weights, alternate characters, and ornaments that allow for a great range of expression in a typeface whose core character was designed to be essentially neutral.

Fonts: Avenir Next

Avenir is a geometric sans serif originally designed by Adrian Frutiger in 1988 for Linotype corporation. Drawing on past geometric sans families of Futura and Erbar, Frutiger sought to increase legibility by increasing the x-height and creating characters whose vertical strokes are slightly heavier than the horizontal ones. In 2004, Frutiger collaborated with with Akira Kobayashi, Type Director at Linotype, to update this popular font. The result was Avenir Next.

Design elements: typographic rules

Yellow typographic rules may be used as a device to separate or highlight elements in a layout. The default rule used in most layouts is a straight hash rule found in the InDesign stroke palette set to 6pts thickness. However, these rules may also be composed of other elements that make sense contextually, e.g., Pi rendered out to however many decimal places are appropriate, a double helix, or a series of nucleotide codons. Whatever motif is used, it is important to maintain a scale proportionate to the 6pt straight hash rule default.

Design elements: image treatments

43

Image grids are used extensively as a design motif in Cary Academy marketing. The grid establishes an order broken by a single or multiple variations to spark curiosity in the viewer. The following pages feature several methods of image disruption/deconstruction. In this example, a single square is rotated out of place and colorized.

s? u o i r Cu

To create them, start in InDesign with a grid of squares. Use object>paths>compound path or the combine function in pathfinder to unify the squares and place the image into the grid. This example shows a single square rotated and colorized (with overlays of cyan) to highlight the word “Curious.� grid with one square rotated prior to converting to a compound path

Prepare yourself. Curious people are annoying. They ask

uncomfortable questions. Stick their noses in questionable places. They break things. And then one day, they cure disease. Build apps that keep girls safe on dates. (One Cary Academy student did!) They stay open to every possibility. Question on!

Design elements: image treatments

This example demonstrates a different method of image deconstruction. Instead of using a white grid, blocks are chopped out of the image, with rectangles of varying scale, opacity, and multiply effects overlayed to create a sense of depth. (Rectangles should maintain the same aspect ratio regardless of size.)

It’s a curious ritual. AT CARY ACADEMY, EVERY YEAR STARTS WITH A HANDSHAKE.

Well, 64,758 of them to be exact. At our annual Handshake Ceremony, every teacher greets every student face-to-face, eye-to-eye, hand-to-hand. Firm grip, steady eye contact, big smile. Welcome to Cary Academy. Curious?

Design elements: sticky notes

Sticky notes are one commonly used tool in brainstorming processes, such as the scrum technology development methodology, and represent the idea of work in progress. Design thinking methods – like scribbling on glass walls or sketching dry-erase flowcharts – are at the heart of collaboration and innovation. Sticky notes are one good way to represent design thinking and the Curious brand. Photography of other design thinking processes should also be part of your assets. How to: 1) Copy and paste the blank note into your layout. 2) Handwrite the copy that will go onto the note on a white piece of paper using a thick black marker. 3) Scan the handwritten text and place it on top of the note.

Design elements: sticky notes

48 figure 1

These sticky notes are meant to be clever asides, and therefore are never purely informational. If used in a typographic layout (figure 1), make sure the sticky overlaps an element to maintain the illusion of depth. When used on a photo, never float it in negative space, but make sure it overlaps some interior element within the photo. In figure 2, the blue sticky breaks the plane of the hand and the yellow one overlaps the lizard’s tail. Note: Sticky notes should be always applied on a dynamic angle. The shadow of the sticky note should always be set to multiply in the effects palette.

Curiosity

= Happiness

It’s the most important equation we teach.

And it’s also scientific fact. Research proves inquisitive minds are more joyful, and therefore more successful. What will your curiosity equal? 1010101110001010001111101110101011100001010101110001010001111101110101011100001010101110001010001111101110101011100001010101110001010001111101110

Discovery. Innovation. Collaboration. Excellence. We call it DICE. It’s our model for liberating young minds for fearless exploration. And why we’re home to clubs from anime to zumba and classes like multivariable calculus, competitive forensics, and songwriting. Everything here is designed to intrique, perplex, and enlighten. So get ready.

The approved fonts (Minion and Avenir Next) offer a great deal of flexibility. However, their question mark glyphs do not have the iconic presence of Clarendon. When using a question mark as a large graphic, please use the Clarendon question mark file provided in place of Minion and/or Avenir Next.

It’s scientific fact: Curiosity makes you smarter. So says Harvard. In a recent study, researchers concluded that curiosity “leads to higher intellectual investment and knowledge acquisition.” Translation:

Asking questions supercharges cerebellum. On our 65-acre campus, you’ll be in good company with more than 700 nosey brains. In small classes,

students in grades 6-12 learn that brilliant insight begins with a question mark. And with the help of talented, dynamic, and naturally inquisitive teachers,

students follow hunches, delve into deeper thinking, and come up with their

own unique – and usually pretty innovative – answers. Perhaps that’s why Cary Academy is North Carolina’s best private high school.

Be curious.

All learning is exploration. Join your subjects on their voyages.

Be personal.

Don’t shoot the biology class. Shoot the girl examining a sample.

Be graphic.

Be mindful.

Simple is better. Decide where the story is and lose extraneous detail.

Images shouldn’t require captions. Pictures should tell stories – and make you curious.

Advancement emails

Advancement emails should not only make the case for why people should donate to Cary Academy, they should also prove why curiosity is important in education. Don’t focus on the “ask” – just highlight the incredible things happening at the school and offer the chance to learn more.

Admissions emails

Different types of emails will help Admissions showcase various aspects of Cary Academy. In this section, we have a general email about Cary and the Curious brand, and two examples of story-based emails – one featuring an alumna and another highlighting a historical figure (page 63-64). These are not the only types of admissions emails, but they will likely be the ones most frequently used. In terms of the communications flow and admissions funnel, start with general emails before progressing to story emails. We want the recipient to have a clear idea of who we are and what we stand for before receiving more specific story-based emails.

Curious? Before she was the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic, Earhart was a precocious seven-year-old. Inspired by a roller coaster at a fair, she built a ramp, secured it to the roof of her father’s toolshed, and “flew” off it in a wooden box just to see if she could fly. That same spark, that spirit of curiosity, is what we nurture in all of our students at Cary Academy. Because it’s when we ask “what if” that our imaginations start to soar.

Admissions social media concepts

Social media is the perfect place to showcase the Curious brand in a bright, fun, engaging way. Use hashtags such as #CACurious to curate user-generated stories and highlight the institutional brand. Post eye-catching photos and pair them with informative copy written in a more casual tone.

Good question. Ask it at one of our 100+ clubs. Chinese Yo-Yo. Indian Dance. Poets’ Society. Coding. Origami. Roller Coaster Madness. Art of Doodling. Even The Chocolate Experience club. Our clubs are designed for students to ask, “What if?” and “Why not?” #CACurious

Chile, China, Germany, and France. It’s all part of our out-of-the-box World Language Exchange Program. Our students explore life as a local – living

with a host family and attending classes. There’s nothing better than a curious mind being curious in another language. And when they’re through, our

students return the favor by hosting international students right here at Cary Academy. Passports – and open minds – required.

Cary Academy challenges everyone to be enthusiastically inquisitive: to seek adventure, and to revel in curiosity. Never stop asking questions.

Adapting a layout from a full-page to a half-page placement or vice-versa is almost never a straightforword process. Different techniques may be necessary to change what is essentially a horizontal or vertical ad to its opposite. In this example, the headline and body copy had to be broken differently. And the relative scale of the background elements and placement of the question marks that make up the background had to be adjusted.

The first spread of the main feature article should be bold and simple. The following spreads should contrast with a greater degree of detail and more white space. Use large student quotes to drive interest. Occasional silhouetted images can help break up the gridded layouts that employ multiple photos. Choose images with unique angles or unexpected emphasis to create visual interest. When constructing an assemblage of images that feature people, be sure to vary the scale of the subjects. The overall vibe should be energetic and fun, while maintaining a degree of sophistication.
