Client: Major Hour Music & Minor Hour Films. Agency: Franki&Jonny.

A very enjoyable identity job to brand 2 companies under the same visual umbrella – Major Hour Music and Minor Hour Films.

Starting from the fantastic client brief of ‘Tim Burton meets Pathé’ we created typographic clockfaces of both company names as a way of enabling them to work together or separately whenever necessary.

This is the animated sting for Minor Hour Films. It will feature at the start of all of their movies.

Minor Hour Films Sting Storyboard

Client: WestEnd Films. Agency: Franki&Jonny.

Now this is an International Sales and Financing company with style. The marque we developed for them visually represents the film making journey from the straight edged, rational world of financing to the fantastical side of story-telling (it goes from straight to curly, making the ‘E’ on the way). A flamboyant, conceptual logo AND they let us use neon.

Compliments Slip

The WestEnd Films pattern features on script covers and promotional material.

The edges of the business cards are neon pink!

If this landed on your desk it would brighten up your day.

Client: Hugo Arnold. Agency: Franki&Jonny.

Hugo is a food writer and menu planner for places like the Ivy and Soho House. He came to us for a website but in the end we developed a complete one-man brand featuring the very succinct fork and pen logo and re-developed all his print materials too.

The site, a very graphic table setting that moves around to reveal sections, is managed entirely by the client through our easy-peasy CMS.

Client: Eco Age. Agency: Franki&Jonny.

A store, showroom, consultancy and green hub! We relished the challenge this brief posed and worked closely with the client to develop a simple, playful marque for the launch of their west-London flagship store.

We went on to develop their guidelines, stationery, signange and promotional literature… all FSC approved.

Our printers used only vegetable based inks.

The letter head is double sided to save paper.

Even the envelope glue is eco friendly…

Client: Unanimous Pictures. Agency: Franki&Jonny.

Injecting a bit of old school glamour into Unanimous Pictures’ new identity (formerly Halcyon Pictures) was an absolute pleasure.

It’s hard to believe but the website, with its silky smooth animation, is entirely built in HTML…

Client: Polish Cultural Institute. Agency: Franki&Jonny.

The nice people at the the Polish Cultural Institute asked us to design the identity for Kintoka – The London Polish Film Festival.

Here the logo features in a promotional animation created by the fabulous Quay Brothers.

Client: Firecracker. Agency: Franki&Jonny.

The home of Asian Cinema in the UK. This magazine is the brainchild of the Firecracker festival team, conceived to present a 24/7 presence for the growing interest in Asian films. We worked with them from the outset to create a unique, visually striking identity.

The Firecracker branding takes its influence from Eastern calligraphy, using ancient brush strokes to render modern symbols as well as the ‘hwa’ (which represents fire) in their logo.

This design plays throughout their literature and online presence, enabling Firecracker to ‘own’ images, navigation and actions.

Client: Brilliant Films. Agency:Franki&Jonny.

The development arm of Independent (formerly ICM) needed a new brand. It worked out,
erm… brilliantly!

The re-branding project for this hi-end stock library covered everything in their portfolio, from stationery and advertising to the website and viral marketing. The core concept uses the brand name as a ‘view finder’ through which you can see any of their images. This provides for a wide range of tactical applications. We get to pick the right image for everything… always a pleasure.

One of a vast and varied palette of logos…

Some more…

Relevant imagery was chosen for each stationery application – the joy of having access to such a collection!

The ‘view finder’ business card.

‘Look Through us’ was the tagline on this ad campaign.

Each time you visit the website you are presented with a different logo from the palette.

Tapisodes… are bringing comic strips to the iPhone. As the logo suggests you tap, tap, tap your way through each animated comic.
