Global rebrand
Worldwide

Using our graphic design sensibility, we worked with MTV International on a visual identity rebrand for the global company, introducing the strategy of Pop x 1000%.

Our studio redesigned MTV’s on-air messaging with a visual timeline, on-screen stickers and expressive fonts, and created audio-responsive video animations and a series of custom idents. We developed a refined but youthful look to enliven and update the brand’s image for the digital era.

The ident animations are humorous and playful 30-second spots, recalling MTV’s youth culture roots and pop-savvy audience. With bold colour and a mix of visual techniques and styles – ranging from live-action sequences incorporating sculptural props and actors to computer-generated glossy animations of impossible digital forms – our idents are kept feeling fresh and current.
