Live Earth Identity
1. SOS / Live Earth / Go Zero
Identity Integration System
Prepared by THE_GROOP for Live Earth / March 30, 2007
2. The Idea
How do we create the most simple and easy to understand icon or
symbol for our earth, for our struggle for survival?
How do we make it impactful? Cross language? Graphic?
Memorable? Non-cliche? Co-opt the language and tools of
corporate america and use it for good?
In addition how do we tie this to the movements SOS identity?
3. Brand Ecosphere
Each logomark represents a distinct role in the life-cycle of this
important undertaking. First with the overall movement, second
with the inception and worldwide broadcast of the movement
through the concerts and internet, and finally, and most
importantly, with the call for global action!
