للمزيد
This study deals with design thinking as a creative methodology that aims to solve design problems and employ it to design and produce interactive advertising campaigns that serve the advertising goal. This study deals with four sections; the first section dealt with design thought's nature, emergence, stages, and importance. The second section reviewed instructiveness in advertising campaigns and the importance of interactive advertising campaigns for both the advertiser and the user. The third section discussed the creative strategy for designing advertising campaigns through design thinking, in which the creative methodology presented in designing interactive advertising campaigns through design thought. Finally, the fourth section included the analytical study that dealt with two interactive campaigns in Saudi Arabia, particularly the "Spirit of Saudi," the campaign of the Ministry of Tourism, and the ten-plus-year campaign of the "Shawarmer" Fast Food Company. The most important results of this study signified that the design of interactive advertising campaigns requires an organized methodology characterized by creativity and innovation to achieve the desired effect and goal. In addition, design thinking is a creative methodology that contributes to finding innovative approaches to designing interactive advertising campaigns. To sum up, the study suggests conducting more Arabic studies on design thinking as a creative approach applied in all fields.

للمزيد
Artificial intelligence means "the ability of a machine to simulate human intelligence, or it is computer programming that learns and develops itself to simulate human thinking to perform certain tasks made for it through artificial neural networks, such as making various inferences, processing information and its ability to learn from its mistakes . "which makes it perform its tasks and tasks quickly and with great skill, thus shortening the time and effort. Designing cartoon characters requires creative imagination and technical skill from the designer to design a distinctive character that reflects the features and the desired goal, which requires time and effort from the designer to create it based on a set of considerations such as the target group and the goal of designing this character in addition to the features of the character that reflect the goal of design. Cartoon characters are drawings that aim to convey a message or point of view about certain things, events or situations and are characterized by exaggeration and symbolism so that they have an effect, or they are drawings aimed at achieving a goal that often considers several factors in their design, such as the age group of the recipients, their tendencies, culture, and other factors Others use symbols to express the character and purpose of their design.
