Illiterate Manifesto
How it started
Despite her close association with the post-apocalyptic horror drama genre, Channing did not want the brand design for Illiterate Manifesto, her production company, to inherit any type of distinctly “Walking Dead” look and feel.
We embraced the inherent contradiction in the company name: an Illiterate Manifesto. Channing shared that she envisioned a design that was many things at once: Elegant and irreverent, messy and perfect, smart but also self-deprecating.
The ultimate design seamlessly combines thick bold lettering that resembles abstract or geometric shapes with a more delicate, ethereal font. The logomark itself – a bold ‘m’ – adds structure to both solid and negative space.
