Challenge

One of A+E Network’s flagship channels, HISTORY showcases some of the leading and most popular TV shows such as Vikings, Black Sails, Forged in Fire and many more.

Due to the ever-changing and fast-paced nature of the marketing involved, Xigen has supported the fast turnaround production of a variety of different assets across digital and print channels, for several different applications. These items had strict delivery times and for some also required localisation into various languages.

Evolving design

From direct email invitations to client events, through to large format banner displays, the deliverable assets to support the HISTORY channel has been very varied. Throughout the timeline of the channel, the branding has been tweaked and improved and Xigen’s design was also refreshed to reflect these changes to ensure the messaging and impact of the designs shone through.

Print design

The more unusual projects were inserts for the lid of chocolate boxes disguised as rugged toolboxes, and video card desk drops showcasing video footage of the leading shows in a portable format. Recently, several supporting large format displays have been produced for the Romanian and Eastern Europe teams.
