'''1.1 IMPORTANT FOR LAYOUTING'''
 
The “m” of the logo can help you to keep the right distance from the logo to
 
the edge of a document, poster, etc.
 
another layout element
 
 
square in the “m” and use this shape to keep the distance, rotate to 90 degrees like in the picture. Do it with all LOGOTYPES A, B and C
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
1.2_WHERE CAN I FIND THE LOGO?
 
 
MEGA > MEDS NETWORK > MEDIA > CORPORATE IDENTITY > LOGOTYPE
 
https://mega.nz/fm/cIVUnbiJ 
 
 
Username: medscloud@gmail.com
 
Password: #MEDSfamily4ever!
 
 
 
 
 
BEFORE WE START:
 
The Font that we use for ALL TEXTS is called: MONTSERRAT
 
You can find it here to download: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Montserrat
 
It is easy to use for any device and is also easy to use in Wordpress on the website!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2_HOW TO USE THE LOGO AND WHEN
 
 
PRINT
 
 
2.1_PRINT_small scale (documents, visa letters, anything when logo is used as a disclaimer and it’s in a small scale max. 1-2 cm in height)
 
materials to work with https://mega.nz/fm/ZBlRnRbC
 
 
This is when we use LOGO A. If you try to use logo with a subtitle (LOGO B) - it’s not going to be readable.
 
 
 
 
 
 
2.2_PRINT_big scale  (posters - from A3 to banners)
 
materials to work with https://mega.nz/fm/ZBlRnRbC
 
 
If the logo is alone, we use LOGO B (photo example underneath)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
If the logo is next to the sponsors, we use LOGO C (we don’t have an example picture, but trust us)
 
 
2.3_PRESENTATION first or last page
 
 
If the logo is alone, we use LOGO B
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2.4_PRESENTATION disclaimer
 
 
We use LOGO C. Where can you find this beautiful presentation layout? It’s here → https://mega.nz/fm/FR0AVTJI
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2.5_SOCIAL MEDIA
 
 
THE RIGHT WAY TO USE IT
 
for social media accounts, we use only the letter M. simply works and looks way better in avatars.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
THE WRONG WAY TO USE IT
 
Why? this is the reason:
 
bad readability, subtitle merges visually into one single line
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2.6_ E-MAIL SIGNAGE
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Wondering how you can also implement this fancy email signage? Here you go, a step by step tutorial! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1terxzBpWqSic7Jxjx0o5bsVGUTsrorlg_ICYPiCIEBo/edit
 
 
 
2.7_VIDEO
 
(same as a first or last page in a presentation)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2.8_ANNUAL WORKSHOP VISUAL IDENTITY WITH MEDS-LOGO
 
Simply use LOGO A - no need to use the subtitle)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
3. INITIATIVES LOGOS
 
 
3.1_Where can I find them?
 
MEGA > MEDS NETWORK > MEDIA > CORPORATE IDENTITY > LOGOTYPE > INITIATIVES LOGO
 
https://mega.nz/fm/tdkjFIxL
 
 
We decided to go for:
 
“m” instead of “meds” + the additional name of the initiative (in Poppins Font https://mega.nz/fm/BJURjKSI)
 
the initiative is aligned to the m on both sides!
 
3.1_m_forum:
 
3.2_m_gallery:
 
3.3_m_travel:
 
3.4_m_studio:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
For a long discussion about this visit the MEDS Slack channel #branding
 
 
3.2_THE RIGHT WAY TO USE IT
 
 
When you use the logo for social media, you should use the frame
 
Why? You will see in the instagram grid directly which initiatives belong together. Since we decided to go for only one meds network channel its more difficult for the audience to see straight away which initiatives belong together.
 
 
When you use the logo alone, you shouldn’t use the frame
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
good use of a logo (“travel” will be updated with the Poppins Font!!)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
bad use of logo
 
Why?
 
twice the logo “MEDS” in the picture
 
now it doesn’t have the “m” + initiative name
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
THAT’S ALL FOR NOW!
 
with love (and a little bit of bitterness),
