Vtuber Channel: Logo & Brand
Freelance, Summer 2022
One of my friends decided to launch her own Vtuber channel with the theme of a cute humanoid goldfish and needed some help with logo design and branding. I was hired on to create a logo for her Twitch channel, display panels for the channel’s descriptions, a visual schedule for future streams, and other assets to come.
Logo Design
Research & Planning
In the initial drafts, I looked up some of the most popular Vtubers’ logos and branding to see just what styles were widespread and how everything fit together. I asked my client questions concerning her targeted brand identity. Once I received a thorough idea of her character’s marketable personality, I then provided multiple type samples to my client and started drafting simple logos to help provide an idea of how her brand’s main color palette interacts with an ocean-colored background.
Iteration
Once a few typefaces were chosen by the client, I created three prototype logos in a few different styles. The client then had the option to pick and choose the best elements from each logo in order to refine a particular option into the channel’s final logo.
Final Logo
After a review period, the client settled on the version of the logo with pastel stars (an element that fit with the animated overlays she had already commissioned for her streams). With a bit of refinement to give the letters some extra movement, the logo was finally complete.
Channel Assets
Panel Headers
Once the logo was finalized, I was able to use the same style of design in headers for her channel’s descriptions.
Stream Schedule
Finally, I created a visual schedule for her future streams. The template is fully customizable to insert stream titles and times with ease, and it contains a spotlight for commissioned art of her Vtuber model on the side.
