Description

We needed to create dynamic show packaging that would introduce various sports segments during MTV’s annual Sports and Music Festival, and incorporate the 3-D name into the design. We designed an identity that was the logo itself. In this case, the logo took on the shape of a halfpipe. Because we were working with a limited budget, the shooting of the fingerboards was done ourselves.
