We are a web and media company specialized in designing, managing and realizing on line publishing products. At the moment, our network has 3.5 millions of unic users and 10 millions of pages viewed per month. About ten websites addressed to a mainly young target audience and dealing with different subjects (music, ready sentences and sms, cooking, mobile phones, technology, tattoos and web directory, turism, cinema) belong to the network. The websites in the network have a vertical structure, made of a main content and of an internal magazine. These websites don’t have a particular link among one another apart from a common top bar, so that they look like separate projects.
这是什么?
在这一步中,您将看到要求您提供解决方案的品牌 Builder 相关信息。他会自我介绍 (当然是作为品牌 :) 您对品牌的了解越深入,您的作品被接受的可能性越大。
重要事项:可能出于保密原因,品牌 Builder 不愿透露自己的身份。此类 Brief 将以匿名方式发布。这种情况下,品牌 Builder 想介绍多少,就介绍多少。
这里有两个例子
如果愿意透露其身份(可见):
“NMN -No More Nicotine- 是一个承诺能抵消吸烟对皮肤造成的损害的品牌。NMN 通过药房销售,价格定位处于中高档;该品牌主要通过专业人士推荐,没有大量的广告宣传。”
如果品牌不希望透露其身份(匿名):
“能抵消吸烟对皮肤造成的损害的品牌。其产品通过药房销售,价格定位处于中高档;他们主要通过专业人士推荐,没有大量的广告宣传。”
简而言之:谁是您的客户 (无论是可见还是“匿名” :)
We intend to develop all our websites under a common idea that allows us to present each of them as a section of a portal. We want to develop a “looking out tv” where the user (the visitor of the website) watches what the other users are seeing or doing in that moment in the websites. As in a real tv, the user will be allowed to change and zap shifting from a website to another one, visiting the contents or watching what other users are watching in that moment. In this way the fruition of the contents becomes circular and centrifugal, in a mechanism between tv-zapping and navigation “on demand” (an actual example is on www.canzoni-mp3.net on the left of the homepage).
Nnetwork naming: all these aspects considered, the network will be called ZZZAPP.TV, a name evoking tv-zapping, the idea of application and TV.
Aim: a new brand identity that makes the user recognize the websites as part of a network. The style will be fresh and international.
How to do it: Through an image common to all the websites of our network, linking them at a concept level as well as at a graphic level.
The project will be developed in three subsequent steps:
- Elaboration of a Logo and of the zzzapp.tv homepage graphic (the website will consist only of a homepage. This is the step we intend to deal with here.);
- Realization of the graphic of the top bar;
- Realization of the logos.
In this phase we intend to develop only the 1st step.
zzzapp.tv will consist of a sole page, with a logo, a stylized drawing in the centre and the channels of the network:
- Logo: the drawing could represent a person with a keyboard sitting on a sofa in front of a tv and beyond the tv other users.
- Channels: these are the TVs the user can switch (pushing a red button) on to watch what happens in the websites. A tv-screen will have to be drawn, where the user will watch the content we will load (a serie of raws, as in canzoni-mp3.net).

- In each TV there will be a serie of raws representing what the users of that website are watching; a sketched idea follows;

At a visual level we intend to represent our idea as a little screen with five coloured aerials, representing each a website:
- canzoni-mp3.net - (red at the moment, but will be blue) - BLUE logo
- sms-pronti.com - green
- frasi-amore.it - love-red
- ricettepercucinare.com - red
- schede-cellulari.it - orange
Logo requirements:
- The logo will be stylized, simple and not too colorful. A few black lines on a white background could be enough; eg.:
- https://lh6.googleusercontent. com/yylH0FP9wCbGVJkUreUkBGMsjJ jBpesd0d-4jeMOiEYLhTx-0YAi3SlI D5perabzG_u8POzHBRH7v-tV1nY8Lr kUyDg7V6J3JTXmf2itSyJHB9I

- the aerials will be in the colours of the five main websites. A general colour could be black, in which the website will be written.
- In general, the website background will be black or at least dark, as well as the logo drawing.

例子
“想要戒烟但无法做到的女子。通常是关注自己外表、注意健康的成年人。他们对于自己吸烟感到愧疚,因为他们知道吸烟有害。他们阅读相关书籍。这对他们来说是一个真正的问题,就像:“我的脑袋要某样东西,但我的身体却不听使唤”。他们和我的品牌无关,他们只是在等待值得信赖的“援助之手。”
简而言之:把握他们的想法!
Recognizability: the graphic will make the network immediately recognizable even if the user enters from an internal page of a website.
这是什么?
品牌 Builder 想要目标受众从您的创作中,思考 / 感觉 / 有所行动的东西。
以下是一些具体示例:
∞ 人们会想到 / 感觉到的一些事:

上面这些例子非常具体,而通常 Brief 提案是感性的。那样更好,因为可以带来灵感!
