About Pleady Branding Idantite Mak

Pleady Branding se yon pwogram idantite mak ki kreye pou yon fabrikan espesyalize nan tep espòtif. Pwogram nan kouvri non mak la, logo mak la, anbalaj, sitwèb, katalòg pwodwi, fim mak ak estan nan foud komèsyal. Non an konbine mo "play" (jwe) ak "ready" (pare). Kominikasyon an bati otou de slogan "Tape or Lose" (Tepe oswa Pèdi) ak yon vizyèl kle ki montre yon fanm k ap kouri, enspire pa liy ki pase nan mitan logo a. Yon koulè mak jòn-vèt make konsantrasyon sou atlèt yo. Jesyon koulè a asire koulè mak la rete konsistan sou papye, fim ak ekran.

Unique Properties
We supported the brand launch of the specialized taping manufacturer PLEADY. We developed the elements that form the core of the brand, such as the brand name and brand logo, positioning communications around the tagline Tape or Lose, and the key visual of a female runner. Our goal with the design was to provide a unified worldview and an identical brand experience at all touchpoints.
Dimensions & Packaging
Naming / Logo / Packaging / Websites / Product catalogs / Brand movies / Trade show booths, etc.

Production Technology
Brand color control was another challenge. We performed color management to ensure that the brand color would create the same impression whether it was reproduced on paper, film, or a monitor.
Design Challenge
Taping is a mature market, so the challenge was to establish a brand clearly differentiated from the competition despite being a latecomer. We formulated the tagline Tape or Lose and the distinctive yellow-green brand color to underscore the fact that the brand targets athletes. In addition, we created a single visual embodying the brand’s worldview, and utilized it in catalogs, websites, and trade show booths.
Inspiration
The brand name is a portmanteau of play and ready. It expresses support for thorough conditioning through the provision of high-quality taping to athletes. The key visual of a female runner draws inspiration from the brand logo, which has a line in the brand color running through it.
Project Duration
PLEADY launched in July 2019.
Operation Flow
We seamlessly integrated brand development with the development of communication tools. This production framework allowed us to successfully create a unified worldview for all touchpoints, despite a tight production schedule.
