Love gives new identity to Extreme urban sports show

LONDON - Design agency Love has created a new look for Extreme Sports Channel's 'Extreme on the road' summer season.

The 11-week series, aimed at 16-34-year-olds, features BMX, streetball and urban sports road trips across Europe.

The Manchester-based agency has designed a new brand identity and a series of TV break bumpers for the programmes that will run until late September.

Adam Fothergill, account manager at Love, said: "We've produced six bumpers using a combination of real and animated footage to engage the audience and effectively communicate the diverse programme content."

A new logo has been created with UK and European versions, and translated into French, Polish and Portuguese. Web banners and postcard flyers will also feature on third-party websites and Extreme's own site, recently redesigned by creative agency Mashie & Niblick.

Extreme's head of marketing Richard Waterworth said: "We've put together a fantastic programming season for the summer, so it was really important to create a really strong on- and off-air sub-brand to bind it all together."

Love has previously worked with Extreme on the brand identity for the new series of Genex, an extreme sports magazine show.
