PUMPKIN
FACTS
● Pumpkins have been
grown in North America for five thousand years.
They are indigenous to the western hemisphere.
● Pumpkins are fruits. A
pumpkin is a type of squash and is a member of the
gourd family (Cucurbitacae), which includes
squash, cucumbers, gherkins, and melons.
● Pumpkin seeds should be
planted between the last week of May and the
middle of June. They take between 90 and 120 days
to grow and are picked in October when they are
bright orange in color. Their seeds can be saved
to grow new pumpkins the next year.
● In what has become an
annual event, the world record fell in 2007. The
largest pumpkin ever grown stands at 1,689 pounds.
It was weighed in on October 7, 2007 at the Rhode
Island Weigh-off. Will the record fall again in
2009? I'll let you know!
● By carving and adding
candles to create Jack-O'-Lanterns,
pumpkins became the most popular icon for
Halloween celebrations. Pumpkin graphics are
displayed each autumn throughout the
country.

Graphic design is the creation of visual
media, usually for marketing. Logos, business
cards, brochures, postcards, publications,
mailings, invoices, and books are all products of
graphic design.
Suppose you want to announce or sell
something. You have a message you want to
communicate. How do you send it? You could tell
people one by one or broadcast by radio or
loudspeaker. That's verbal communication. But, if
you use a visual medium-if you make a poster, type
a letter; create a business logo, a magazine ad,
an album cover-you are using a form of visual
communication called graphic design.
Graphic designers work with drawn,
painted, photographed, or computer-generated
images. They also design the letter-forms
that make up various typefaces found in movie
credits and TV ads; in books, magazines, menus,
and even on computer screens. Designers create,
choose, and organize these elements to communicate
a message. Graphic design is a part of your daily
life. From small things like gum wrappers to huge
things like billboards to the T-shirt you're
wearing. Graphic design informs, persuades,
organizes, stimulates, identifies, and attracts
attention.

Why Use Graphic Design to
Create Corporate Branding?
 It's possible to use
graphic design to create a corporate image that
can make an impact. Although you can use words in
advertising, there is nothing that has the visual
appeal of graphics. Graphics give people
something they can easily remember in addition to
creating a unifying theme or concept that runs
throughout the company literature, packaging,
forms, marketing materials, and anything to do
with correspondence including letterhead,
envelopes, and business cards. Graphics are
the "something extra" that will set your company
apart from the competition when it comes to
customer recall. The graphics make it possible to
change an ordinary business message into a
powerful visual marketing tool. Impressions
are created in a moment and last indefinitely.
When people look at your logo and any other
graphics you use on your business materials, the
image you want to portray should be conveyed. The
graphics can create the best and lasting
impression on those who receive your company
materials.
When the graphics are carefully created using
creative design and crisp brilliant colors, the
result is company branding. Graphic design is one
of the most effective marketing tools your company
can use. The chosen graphics promote your business
and provide a stimulating concept which brands the
company.
Whether creating a brand or a holiday
display, graphic designs can be the most
useful tools for bringing your business to
life.
