Arashi Podcast
Official graphics for season 1 of the Arashi Podcast. Our goal was to create a professional branding for their new podcast series talking about what it's like to be an artist in quickly growing esports industry. A clean minimalist style was the best fit to compliment the main content while not being a distraction to the viewer. Part of our focus was to create a unique experience that's not commonly seen in the world of esports.
Branding
The color scheme we settled on was a deep orange with dark greys and bright whites to give contrast. This color scheme worked perfectly in maintaining that minimalist style while still being bold.
Posters
To advertise each podcast, a new poster is made featuring the speakers and other key information.
Revamp
Visio revamped Arashi's socials to fit the new theme of the podcast. This took the style of the project and incorporated it beyond the podcast.
Intro
Created to catch the viewer's eye right from the start, the intro was the perfect opener to the podcast. M3 constructed a masterful animation in Blender that was able to capture the same theme as the podcast overlay despite being in 3D.
Podcast Screen
This is where most of the podcast will be spent so it was important to create something not visually confusing. Simple to read and visually pleasing, the viewer is able to easily feel connected to the podcast. The layout was designed to keep all the information in one central area while being easy to follow. Up to 5 of the next segments can be displayed at once so its always evident what's coming up next.
On top of being simple to follow, the overlay had to be easily editable. The project file was color coded and organized for maximum efficiency.
Animation
The majority of assets made involved animation, Kinch created all the 2D animations staying true to the minimalist style. A quick intro was made for each of the reoccurring segments to add another visual element and increase our production quality. On top of the animation, Prisma did all the sound design for the intros. The subtle but impactful sound design really brought the animations to life.
Sound Design
As the final step in production, Prisma took all the animations into FL Studio and created an immersive sound experience. Layering many different tracks added a level of depth to each asset.
Credits
In order to recognize everyone that put time and effort into each week's production, rolling credits run at the end of the episode. Everyone from broadcast talent to production is credited along with music use.
