On July 1st this year, MTV rolled out a new look across its network of 64 international channels. The refresh is a collaboration between the network and Universal Everything and is the first time the channel will have a consistent look across the globe.

Based around three major elements: a refined logo, a new navigational system, and a distinctive colour palette, the reboot of one of the worlds largest television brands was delivered in a 14 week turnaround, with further details of the branding strategy available here.

Ruffmercy

Lo studio Ruffmercy, con sede a Londra, lavora costantemente dal 1998 nell’ambito artistico-televisivo, realizzando numerosi packaging, identità di rete, promo e sigle per altrettanti numerosi clienti come: MTV NETWORKS EUROPE, MTV UK, MTV NORDIC, MTV CENTRAL, MTV ASIA, BRITISH COUNCIL, MILK PRODUCTIONS, TOMBOY FILM…

Si capisce dai lavori sul sito e soprattutto dal reel, che la loro arte è sicuramente proiettata verso l’illustrazione 2d con uno stile “alla moda”, colori forti e animazioni “compulsive”. Vediamo qui sotto il loro ultimo video.

Brazillian based agency Santa Motion have created this strange yet compelling opening sequence for a new MTV show called Acesso.

The broad concept behind the video is about how information changes people, an idea represented through the various transitions. MTV Latin America have always pumped out really interesting stuff, including this from a few years back.
