Content Guidelines

Through our choice

of photography and

imagery, we create

a visual story that

celebrates individuality,

diversity, community,

and the style that

defines this campaign.

LIFE HERE IS ALWAYS IN

VOGUE AND ON TREND

To capture the essence of the campaign,

our visuals should feel effortlessly cool

with untouchable confidence, likethe

spirit of NYC or LA street style. Think

shots of diverse students who just

happen to be rocking their most stylish

fit for the day. They’re ready for their

close-up, and they’ve graduated beyond

“smile for the camera” to show off style,

power, and poise.


Imagery that features the campaign

colors — turquoise, red, bright yellow,

and burgundy — can provide a visual

connection, and high-contrast clothing

and backgrounds can make everything

feel more editorial.

Flash photography creates high

contrast and an editorial feel that

fits right in


Streetwear and street-style

photography inspire mood-board-

ready confidence


Disposable cameras and filters with

grainy imagery put us right in the

right mindset


Confident poses instead of candid

shots make residents feel like the

VOL. 1

EDITORIAL/MAGAZINE

When you’re shopping a newsstand,

you’ll find gossip mags with fashion

features alongside newspapers and

current events. This campaign honors

all these experiences with big headlines

and structured layouts.

BODEGA SIGN

Nothing compares to the character of

an old-school bodega. This campaign

represents that neighborhood staple

with bold, shapely fonts and hand-

painted starbursts. These signs give a

modern twist to a classic character.

FREESTYLE

Just like our campaign, remember to

always do you. Get creative within the

theme, and use these guidelines and

provided assets to make something new.

When you think "bodega", there’s typically munchies, greasy foods, guilty pleasures. Foods like a wrapped hot dogs or walking taco style (flamin hot cheetos with cheese sauce/toppings) or sweet treats like deep fried oreos, ice cream sundaes, and milk shakes will work great at our Bodega Pop Up.

Cardinal is partnering with Recess again to offer the Back to College Program. We are in the process of securing sponsors to provide items for your move-in day. We will have more details on your sponsors in the next couple of weeks!

Food bars: Grilled Cheese Bar, Late Night Cereal Bar, Pickle Bar, French Fry Bar. The ideas are endless!

In the meantime, this Summer is a great time for your community to start reaching out to local shops to promote your move-in day! Here are some sponsorship opportunities communities have executed in the past.

CONTINUING

THE CAMPAIGN

This year’s campaign invites residents to write their own story and

express their individuality. It’s all about confidence, excitement, and new

experiences. And that’s exactly what we can carry on all year long —

from today to spring renewal and all the way through turn.


Set out to welcome residents and make sure they have everything

they need for a positive experience, give them shout-outs or treats for

birthdays and finals weeks, and do what you can to make them feel

seen. They are on the front page, after all.
