1.0 INTRODUCTION WELCOME TO RIGHT TO PLAY This book serves as your guide to Right To Play, both in terms of how you use the brand (logo, colours, design, symbols etc.) and how you communicate Right To Play. Consistency in visual appearance and communication is so important because it drives awareness and loyalty. By applying these guidelines to programs, initiatives and campaigns, you will be building value for the Right To Play brand. Should you have any questions, contact the Right To Play International Communications Department at brand@righttoplay.com 2

1.1 TAGLINE & RED BALL WHAT IS A TAGLINE? A tagline is a concise and catchy phrase that encapsulates our mission in a few words. WHAT IS OUR TAGLINE? When Children Play, The World Wins. THE RED BALL The Red Ball is a symbol of our organization. The graphic showcases our philosophy LOOK AFTER YOURSELF, LOOK AFTER ONE ANOTHER which has been captured in many different languages. As an icon, it embodies the power of sport to promote health, development and peace. The Red Ball can be used as a graphic element within Right To Play marketing communications. The Red Ball is not a substitute for the Right To Play logo, nor should it ever be shown attached to the logo it exists more as a graphic tool to augment our branding presence. As examples, it can be used on the back of a T-shirt or invitation, where the logo is present elsewhere. The Red Ball is simply another way to instantly show the work that Right To Play does, captured in an icon. Due to its symbolic nature, the Red Ball should never be altered or used with different text within the circle. In cases where a red ball is required to creatively signal Right To Play as an organization, a simple solid red circle (C: 15 M: 100 Y: 100 K: 0, R: 210 G: 35 B: 42, Hex #d2232a, Pantone 1795C) should be used. Please see the following examples as a guide. Keep In Mind: FORMAT Tagline can appear as is or in ALL CAPS. TRANSLATION Tagline can be translated into all languages. PERIODS The tagline should always have a period at the end. MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS BACK OF T-SHIRT 3

STACKED TRI-COLOUR LOGO PRIMARY USAGE The preferred way to use the logo is the Stacked Tri-Colour Logo, since it is the most powerful visual element. This logo creates instant visual recognition with its vivid use of colour and bold typography. Please follow the guidelines outlined below. Keep In Mind: COLOURS Never deviate from the standard identity colours. The Right should always appear black; To should always appear yellow; Play should always appear red (see page 17 for colour breakdown). BACKGROUND This logo should appear only on a white background in order for the colours to visually pop. If the background is not white, use the Stacked Solid Black Logo. PHOTOGRAPHY When this logo appears on a photograph, use a semi-transparent bar if the logo doesn t stand out enough (see page 8). MINIMUM SIZE This logo should appear no smaller than 15 mm wide for optimal visual recognition (see page 20). PRINT SPECIFICATIONS (EPS) For printed projects, use the EPS version. WEB SPECIFICATIONS (JPEG) For web projects, use JPEG or PNG. 7

TEXTURED AND PHOTOGRAPHIC BACKGROUNDS Some designs call for the use of a photo, gradient or textured background that will run behind the logo. This is acceptable, provided the area appearing behind the logo is subdued enough to follow the conventions outlined in this style guide. When the background hinders the visual impact of the logo, use a semi-transparent bar (opacity 90%) to contain the logo. This will ensure the logo stands out. Keep In Mind: CLEARANCE SPACE Maintain proper clearance space surrounding the logo (see page 18). BACKGROUND The background of the image should not have any visual obstructions that can hinder the logo s legibility. COLOUR The colour found in the background image should not visually impede the colours of the logo. 8

1.5 LOGO CLEARANCE SPACE LOGO CLEARANCE SPACE Clearance space is an important factor in the legibility of the logo. It is essential to maintain a minimum clearance space of 25% around the logo. The clearance space is determined by measuring the logo s height and dividing this amount into four equal spaces. This 25% space should surround the logo. No elements should enter the area. LOGO CLEARANCE SPACE RIGHT TO PLAY STACKED TRI-COLOUR LOGO FOR ALL LOGOS Use the top portion of the R to determine the clearance space as shown on the right. Apply the same method for the Stacked Solid Black & White Logo and the Horizontal Solid Black Logo. LOGO CLEARANCE SPACE HORIZONTAL TRI-COLOUR LOGO 18
