Alacran Group

Alacran Group is a global multimedia entertainment group empowering through music, culture, film, performances, ideas and live events that bring people together.
A new media company with offices in Miami, Jamaica and London. The group encompasses one record label, two recording studios, live events, films and a foundation. Alacran's founder and visionary, Alessandra Lo Savio, believe in a united world where we share our cultures and beliefs to embrace everyone for their true magic. Unapologetically You!

We introduce Alacran Group to the public via a unique, creative and powerful experience - emphasizing character and determination. Captivating graphics and design for entertaining and engaging visitors of all walks, backgrounds, and music genre preferences.
The Oxford dictionary defines “empowerment” as “the act of giving somebody more control over their own life or the situation they are in.” We harnessed the power of this word to introduce the Alacran Group in a unique and uplifting manner through a series of taglines and related messaging.  

DELIVERABLES
Logo, group logos, tag-lines, key message, brand identity guidelines, stationery system, pattern design, merchandising, banners, flags, social media supporting content, branding, posters, social media posts, billboards, animated billboards, 3D animation, creative direction, art direction, content creation, film, post-production, sound edition.

LOGO DESIGN
The logo consists of the number 3 and an inverted number 6 as its base. Together, they form three perfect circles, marked by symmetry and stability, to form an iconic and modern logo for Alacran (“Scorpion” in Spanish). Everything is surrounded by a circle - representing our planet; a half-moon on the left represents the first light on the horizon as viewed from outer space. In print, copper foil over dark blue paper gives the brand a sophisticated appearance and smooth touch.
FIBONACCI GRID

An imaginary grid exists in the layout of every communication, print and screen. In this grid, every number is the sum total of the two numbers that precedes it (for example: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8). This sequence named after an Italian mathematician, the Fibonacci Sequence, may be found throughout nature.

Following this grid allows multiple elements in any given design to come together in perfect balance, a vision of appealing rhythms and harmonies. The Fibonacci sequence is typically used in concert with the golden ratio, a closely-related principle also stemming from math.
