D&AD Brief Brief Overview Design a visual identity for a fictional Audible Originals title that stands out and makes some noise. At Audible, designers might not have the full text available to listen to before they create an identity instead they will have the title, synopsis and a clear idea of the target audience. To replicate this process, you have a selection of four fictional* audiobook and podcast titles, synopses and core markets to choose from. You’ll need to get into the mind of your audience and design a digital book cover and series of visual assets to promote your title. This brief is all about design craft, so consider how you can make your visual identity arresting and convince your audience to tune in. The identity needs to stand out. It also needs to work across multiple touchpoints and create a world beyond Audible. The identity needs to live in a sea of tiny squares but also be able to stand alone both as a virtual and physical asset. The entirety of the design will be visible on the product description page that draws the reader in or as an ad on Instagram. Think about the wider ecosystem of the design and all the touchpoints it will cover. Deliverables
