As part of the Henson marketing strategy, a brand identity was created through a new logo, choice of typefaces, and color palette. This new style was implemented across letterhead, business cards, one sheets, mailers, print ads, presentations and e-newsletters. As the Graphic Designer working on this project, I wished to encapsulate both the visual feel of the lot as well as its classic history. The red, brown, and blue draw respectively from the brick buildings and courtyard, the Tudor architectural façade, and open blue sky iconic of the lot. The design of the “H,” inspired by early set design typical of Chaplin-era productions, speaks to the function of the soundstage while subtly referencing the world-famous Hollywod Sign itself.
