The logo for Listening for Racial Understanding is an abstract type lockup that silhouettes the main motion graphic intro sequence. This familiar pattern is used to establish brand recognition with the organization’s audience.

COLOR PALETTE

The color palette consists of two main colors, each given two additional lighter tints. The red/rust color was used on an early marketing piece, so we used that as the starting point to expand to a full palette.

TYPOGRAPHY

Bebas Neue and Adobe Caslon were paired for this visual identity package. Bebas is known for its tall, slender, mechanical-like glyphs, which felt appropriate for a social campaign with an important message. Adobe Caslon was used as a friendly addition for long-copy reading.
