UiA has a strong presence on social media. We share articles and other types of content on our main channels, university subpages, and advertising campaigns. With the implementation of a new graphic profile, we want to ensure that UiA is represented as a unified organisation across different pages and channels.
Name:
As a rule, all channels affiliated with UiA should have UiA as the first part of their names. For example, the main channels are called "UiA - University of Agder" while a faculty should be called "UiA - Faculty of XYZ". This also applies to other units, such as "UiA Career Services", "UiA Alumni", etc. It is possible to rename existing channels, and we encourage this.
If you need help to change the name on a channel you administrate, please contact Andreas van der Eynden.
Profile image:
In most social media channels, the profile picture is important. It appears next to all published content and is, therefore, the face of the organisation. In order to appear as unified as possible, and show that the channel is an official UiA channel, we want to use new, relevant logos as profile pictures on main pages and subpages.
Main channels:
UiA's main channels use white logo / red background combination as profile image. Example:
Please note: This applies only to the main channels administrated by the Communications department.
Subpages:
UiA's subpages (faculties, departments, studies, centres, among others) should use the red logo or name / white background combination. Example:
Cover image:
The cover image must be of a relevant nature, and if the logo is used in the cover image, it should be the new logo in the correct color and format. A good starting point for finding a good cover image is to consider the target audience of the page you are managing. Who are you addressing when you create a post, and what would they like to know? The size of a Facebook Cover Photo is 820 x 360 px. To ensure the content is well displayed, the text should not appear until 90 px on the surface.
