Brand direction

Independent Lens chose to move forward with the layered design motif combined with a progressive color palette. The angle within the logo was utilized as portal that opened up to a layered world of stories. The brand was blown out across on-air, social, digital banners, print and a variety of promotional materials.

Style guide

A detailed and comprehensive style guide was designed to clearly break down each element of the brand. The expanded color pallette allowed the brand to match the tone and manner of each documentary. The brand needed to work on its own and with a range of content from the serious to the heart warming.

Bold condensed typography was utilized for impact but also to allow longer titles to work effectively across a range of smaller digital media assets.
