VISUAL IDENTITY SYSTEM FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA

VISUAL IDENTITY SYSTEM FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA SHIELD ICON DESCRIPTOR ABRIDGED VERSION: SEPTEMBER 12, 2016 LOGO LOCK UP

INTRODUCTION Thank you for your support as we begin to roll out the updated visual identity for the university. After working together this year, we are pleased to share the refreshed university logo that will begin to appear in various places across campus. WHY A REFRESH? As we prepare for the public phase of the comprehensive capital campaign, it is important to have a strong and consistent external presentation so our partners, donors and alumni can easily recognize our institution s full impact and are motivated to strengthen their support. Refreshing the logo and our system will create a unified look and feel for our university that better reflects our status as a top public research institution. A refreshed look across the institution will provide: Better consistency, clarity and brand recognition Increased impact and efficiency by working better in digital and social channels Visual alignment across academics and athletics Cost savings as individual units will not need to invest in designing their own logos A STRONG PRESENTATION Designed with purpose, each element of the updated logo has been thoughtfully crafted to harken back to the history and pride of the 1989 logo and presents anambitious face for the next era. The shield represents academic excellence, and our iconic symbol, the Arch, signifies strength. These elements combined help the logo work across all digital platforms. Fonts are traditional, in keeping with our rich history, and refreshed for a future-facing aesthetic. The color palette is now consistent across the institution, including Athletics. WHAT S NEXT? We are working to finalize and deliver your custom logo files throughout the fall, which will involve small-group training sessions. We will also be hosting brown-bag info sessions to answer questions on 10/4, 10/17 and 10/31. Additionally, we have launched an online toolkit that will provide essential information regarding color palette, usage guidelines, letterhead, digital templates and much more. This will continue to be populated over the next several months and years and will contain all visual identity guidelines later in the fall. As good stewards of our funds, it is important that we not waste our existing materials. Please ask your team to roll out your new materials judiciously after the old materials have been used. Digital/social assets can be transitioned quickly at no/low cost; we request all print materials to be used until reordered with the new logo. For more than 230 years, UGA has grown and evolved, and this refreshed look is another step in this process as we prepare for the comprehensive capital campaign. We look forward to working with you to bring the university community closer together, create stronger alignment and ensure that we get more value out of each and every one of our communications. If you have any questions, please contact visualidentity@uga.edu. With regards, Karri Hobson-Pape Vice President Division of Marketing & Communications P 2 UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA BRAND GUIDELINES VISUAL IDENTITY ABRIDGED VERSION: 9.12.2016 brand.uga.edu

GEORGIA S PRIMARY LOGOS There are six configurations of the University of Georgia s primary logo to allow for a high degree of flexibility throughout a wide range of potential applications. Each configuration includes five color variants in three formats: PNG (transparent background) JPG (raster format) EPS (vector format) The shield icon is never used alone and travels with a white holding shape at all times. When applied to white or light backgrounds, this shape is allowed to fade into the dark backgrounds, this holding shape allows the logo to function without changing the icons colors or color placement.

GEORGIA S PRIMARY LOGOS The University of Georgia wordmarks are uniquely drawn sets of typographic characters that form Georgia and University of Georgia. Each serve as the foundation to which all other graphic identity elements are added. Treat the signature as artwork, not as typography. It cannot be accurately reproduced with any typeface and should not be modified in any way. WORDMARK GEORGIA-WRD-FC The University logo includes two other wordmark versions Georgia and University of Georgia. The use of these versions is limited and requires the permission & review of usage from the Division of Marketing & Communications.

COLOR VARIATIONS The colors used in the university signature help make it a distinguishable element of Georgia s identity. It is important to be consistent in the use of color. When one color or full color variations are used on black, red or dark backgrounds, the type and TM reverse to white. FULL COLOR GEORGIA-V-FC ONE COLOR BLACK GEORGIA-V-1CB ONE COLOR RED GEORGIA-V-1CR Inks, presses, papers, screens and everything in between vary considerably when it comes to rendering exact colors. For that reason, we highly recommend referring to the Pantone Matching System (PMS) for consistent and accurate color reproduction.

Minimum size is determined by the height of the shield icon and applies to all configurations. The proportions of the type to the shield icon should never be altered.

CLEAR SPACE Clear space is the area that is required around the outside of our logo. It must be kept free of other graphic elements such as headlines, text, images and the outside edge of materials. The minimum required clear space for the logo is defined by the measurement X as shown. This measurement is equal to the height of the typography as shown here. To reinforce the university logo and thereby the university itself as our foundation, our identity system discourages the use of any additional iconography, marks or artwork in conjunction with the university logo or any supplemental logo. Approved secondary identity elements may be used as supporting art, but they should always be clearly separated from our official marks. P 7 UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA BRAND GUIDELINES VISUAL IDENTITY ABRIDGED VERSION: 9.12.2016

DO S The logos must always appear on backgrounds that allows for a high degree of legibility. When applying the logo over photography take care to ensure that the background image does not compromise the legibility of the logo. When choosing whether to use the light background version or the dark background version, consider the tonal value of the image and choose the logo that maximizes the available contrast. Do not place the full-color logo on a photographic or colored background. Use the holding container or reversed single color logo. P 8 UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA BRAND GUIDELINES VISUAL IDENTITY ABRIDGED VERSION: 9.12.2016

AND DON TS Any modification of our logos confuses their meaning, diminishes their impact, and is not allowed. Precise logo artwork has been created to accommodate any usage need. Never redraw, translate or otherwise alter our logo in any way. The following list of incorrect usages must be avoided to maintain the integrity of our system. Do not distort the logo Do not use unapproved colors Do not alter color placement Do not rotate the logo Do not alter the composition of the logo Do not use the shield icon alone GEORGIA Do not alter the typography Do not skew the logo Do not alter proportions P 9 UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA BRAND GUIDELINES VISUAL IDENTITY ABRIDGED VERSION: 9.12.2016
