When we were developing the concept for Live 'n' Deadly the lookbook that the team at Brond created helped us hugely in the pitch and I'm convinced that their pictures of 4x4s wrapped in the striking black and yellow logo helped secure the commission!

Brond always bring creative ideas that have a real impact to the end product of the show. Brond continue to help develop and expand this brand to create something that almost all young people in the UK instantly recognise!

Branding and set design

Being live and outdoor across the UK, the series needed an eye catching brand and a range of durable, weatherproof set props that would stand out in all landscapes and all weather conditions.

Brond designed and sourced flags, maps, vans and a variety of on screen props that were used during the live shows.
