Formula One 2014/15 Broadcast Information Graphics

Year: 2014

QuantumBlack was commissioned to produce a series of information graphics to help Formula One viewers understand the new rules following an engine formula change.
As lead designer and domain expert, I drove the information design aspect of the television graphics, whilst complying with the 2013/14 F1 brand guidelines. QuantumBlack partnered with a leading UK visual effects house to ensure the designs were up to broadcast standard.
The new graphics package was seen by a global audience of 425m people during the 2014 season, acting as a visual aid to the commentators of global media networks throughout the races.
