wTVision rebrands Real Madrid TV channel's identityMay 13, 2015


wTVision has been asked to collaborate with the biggest football club in the world. Real Madrid put on company’s hands the graphics rebranding of its TV channel, Real Madrid TV.

It is with pride that wTVision is making part of this unique project. “With a new Santiago Bernabéu stadium on the way and the channel migration to HD definition, we knew the on-air graphics rebranding had to result in an impactful creative work. Real Madrid has a magnificent brand legacy and strong positioning, with great awareness near its fans. The brand values needed to be shifted to the new visual identity, without disrupting with the historical elements. At the same time, it was essential to create a bonding to the new technological and modern age the club is facing. We explored the idea of capturing the smoothly curved metallic lines of the new Santiago Bernabéu Stadium as an inspiration and conceptual basis for the new branding. We are very pleased with the final look and feel“, commented Mário Silva, wTVision’s Creative Director.

The complete branding included not only the channel branding but also the seven most important programs of the channel resulting in an exhaustive creative work: logo redesign, creation of promotional videos, generic videos, backgrounds, all the on-air graphics, among others. “Hoy Jugamos” and “Informativos” are the first two dedicated programs already on-air with the new branding. The graphics were built to be highly dynamic, as they give the client the autonomy to edit and update contents on graphics according to its daily needs (even the pre produced graphics).

With over 200 broadcast graphic concepts created since its inception, wTVision has a solid understanding of broadcast graphics design and brand identity creation, providing creative services for sports competitions, entertainment events, election programs, channel branding, and much more.

In 2014, Real Madrid brand was in the top 3 of the most valuable football brands in the world, according to The Brand Finance Football 50 study, an annual study conducted by leading brand valuation and strategy consultancy Brand Finance.
