Description
Today there’s not only one tone of voice but several and diverse.
So, how can we adapt the MTV international branding to make sure our audiences see themselves portrayed on our screen and feel empathy?
We took on the challenge to visually represent the wide range of moods our audience experiences and translate that into our brand. Anger, Love, Joy, Sadness, Chill, Excitement and everything that happens in between finds its place within the new rebrand.

We teamed up with filmmaker Leo Adef, Storyweproduce / Pandora production company in Barcelona to shoot live action idents. Builders Club London animation studio, Father London soun design, Randy Cano animation artist, Device Barcelona for 3d animation, Fede Maksimiuk designer to create all the assets.
Everything was supervised in Buenos Aires, Argentina but vendors from around the world helped create an international big project.
Scale: 160 countries and 38 markets airing the pieces and adapting to their local language and customs.
Outcome
Brand gained connection with youth related stories. Full new look and feel for a worldwide audience that consumes content according to their feelings.
As a result, we developed a big library of emotions with more than 250 pieces, for every ethnicity and gender, that can be used and customized repeatedly across our 38 markets and 160 countries.
