Publicity materials refer to posters, pamphlets, banners, email direct mailers, videos and brochures (both hard copies and digital on social media platforms) which are commonly used as marketing collaterals for publicity of events.

You must first obtain approval for your activities/events from your staff advisor via NUSync before producing the collaterals. Do refer to the Endorsements, Sponsorships & Advertising Guidelines (located in NUSync Student Leader & Staff Advisor Resources) if applicable.

In addition to programme details, a well-informed poster should include these information:

• Organiser
• Event Details (e.g. Date, time, venue)
• Call-to-action (e.g. Registration)

To create the NUS look and feel, the elements of the corporate identity must be applied consistently and correctly. Logos, colours and typefaces are all important components in reflecting the NUS identity in your materials.

You must seek prior consent through OSA for the use of the name of NUS and its corporate logo in any student event, and for all printed materials such as posters, merchandise (T-shirts, mugs, folders) and banners.

NUSync & OSAY!
NUSync, the official CCA portal, is a great platform to promote your activities. You may list your events on the Events Calendar or share your events through OSAY!, a weekly e-newsletter that is sent out to all NUS Students.

Drop in your event promotion request form via NUSync at least 2-week before your event date.

3) Publications

If you wish to publish any print materials, you would be required to obtain a “Newspaper Permit” authorised by Media Development Authority (MDA). Examples of newspapers include dailies, company or society in-house newsletters, annual reports and directories. A permit is not required for publications such as novels or one-off commemorative booklets. You may check with your staff advisor to find out more.
