MTV REBRAND

Branding | Motion | Illustration

MTV is.. well, it's MTV! You know, MusicTeleVision, it's the super rad American Cable channel that started in the 80's and its cultural significance was booming until they started airing reality Tv instead of Beavis n Butthead and.. music. It's no denying they had a bit of a downfall but even in the reality tv era, it seems they've found their place. While I didn't grow up in the 80's I was still heavily influenced by the remnants of the music video era of MTV. For this motion piece, The idea was to take an existing television brand and rebrand it towards something they've never done before. With that in mind, I knew what exactly I was going to do.

Outcome

The outcome is a combination of several different techniques in motion design to create a fresh take on the 'New Music Era' for MTV. I wanted to take it back to music but in a way they had never done before. Indie/Alternative would be the main marketing for MTV. With two cheerfully wonky indie songs as backtracks, The golden yellow, sketchy illustrative style, and aesthetic film culminate into the perfect alternative rebrand.
