About the Event

In-house creative teams are increasingly taking more ownership of their brand, responsible for the development, implementation, and performance.

With increasing ownership comes a responsibility to regularly review or change the visual identity, undertake brand health checks and continue to refine to ensure brand relevance and relatability.

So, how do you successfully undertake a new visual identity project and its subsequent roll out?

During this mastermind session, we will be joined by two in-house creative leaders who will share their experience of approaching and delivering a re-brand.

Bill Cameron, Head of Design Studio at PA Consulting will be taking us through PA’s journey to a new visual identity. Sharing their approach and presenting their decision making around the use of colour, typography, photography and logo design.

Laura Heaton, Global Design Director at EssenceMediacom will take us through their re-brand after the merger of MediaCom and Essence, focusing on the delivery, roll out, launch and feedback.

Topics to be covered include: 

  • Approaching a re-brand
  • Reviewing your visual Identity and undertaking a brand health check
  • Selling the idea – Justifying the rational with logic
  • Production and retiring assets
  • Roll out and Launch
  • Gaining feedback
