ManvsMachine / More4 Idents

After winning a competitive pitch, Channel 4 commissioned ManvsMachine to create a new brand identity and on-air look for More4. The re-brand is centred round a bold, flexible logo that morphs through a series of flips, folds and reveals. Live-action idents see the brand break out into the real world in the form of mechanical ‘flippers’.
