Final project: Limitless London
The aim of this self-devised brief was to create and market a new sister brand to ‘Visit
London’ that was aimed at attracting young people to the City of London. The outcome
of this brief was a 7000 word research and implementation report. The report examined
marketing strategies, target audiences, case studies, effective brand communication
channels as well as several other vital elements needed for the launch of a new brand. A
website was designed based on web 3.0 model along with an integrated social media
campaign. To accompany this a TV ad that was filmed and edited using Adobe Premier
was created and an outdoor advertising campaign was bought to life using my
Photoshop and Illustrator skills.
Limitless London Logo created using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. “Targeted towards a younger
audiences, the vibrant multi-coloured palette has been chosen to stand out from the usual reds, whites
and blues that are so commonly used throughout London’s current communications.”
