BRAND CHARACTERISTICS

Bold
Fireball isn’t risk-averse. Our business model is built on a wager
that consistent quality work, no-nonsense promotion, and loyalty
to customers and business partners will in the long run make us
successful. From our bold logo type-weight to our emphasis on
contrast and negative-space, the visual representations of Fireball
convey our unapologetic confidence in the quality of our products.

Authoritative
Fireball incorporates the Authority of experienced installers and
educated chemical engineers into our brand by strictly adhering
to our internal standards. We value transparency, and in contrast
to some competitors, market our products without deception or
hyperbole. These standards and the community trust they gen-
erate give us the ability to speak with authority, confident of our
company’s quality, skill, and customer backing.

Exclusive
Fireball is dedicated to only providing our products to installers
who have been personally approved by our management and
quality control team. When a customer brings their vehicle to a

methods are backed by Fireball, and have been validated by
knowledgeable and experienced installers.

Cutting Edge
Fireball’s in-house Research and Development teams strive to
make our products clean, efficient, and forward thinking. Fireball
enables its installers and their customers to stay ahead of the
curve, always standing out by virtue of simply more effective,
more advanced products. We aim to convey this forward think-
ing, science first mentality through our bold, industrial design
language, ultimately aiming to create a product that feels new,
unique, and trustworthy.

Vocabulary
Fireball should nearly always speak in simple, easily understood
words. Favor professional words; don’t use slang terms or obscen-
ities. Never use the first person in non-social media copy. In social
media, use the first person plural (‘we’ not ‘I’).

A challenge of writing in Fireball’s voice is balancing the complex


scientific nature of our products with the desire for copy simplicity
and general resistance to reading among our target demographic.
Inversely, it’s very important that our vocabulary avoids oversim-
plifying our more advanced products. This balance reinforces
our commitment to minimal, strictly communicative copy, and
is further informed by the Functional / Expressive dichotomy.

Every word in a Fireball statement needs to be communicative.


Avoid using words that don’t add anything to the existing writing.
In editing statements, try to replace unnecessary words with
additional details, or cut them entirely. Keep in mind the average
person will read only eight words into a paragraph before deciding
whether to continue, meaning both that writers must avoid “fluff”
words and must craft compelling hooks in marketing copy and
product descriptions.

the separation bar must be centered between the logos, using
the isolation areas as reference. The height of the separation

PHOTOGRAPHY
CHARACTERISTICS

Overview
As a company that primarily produces cosmetic products, Fireball
relies heavily on its photography. Our photos are methods of
communication, and expressions of our passion for beauty and
quality in our work. In order to effectively complement the rest
of the Fireball media system, photography must strictly adhere
to our branding guidelines.

Principles
Each of our photographs are structured and composed with a
focus on aesthetic communication. We understand that a techni-
cally correct photograph of nothing, and a poorly taken photograph
of an interesting subject, are a waste of both the photographer’s
and the viewer’s time. Therefore, we focus on creating technically
advanced photographs of interesting subjects in engaging ways.
Every photograph from Fireball should be either a platform for its
subject, a self-contained narrative, or an entry into a series that
communicates a clear, linear narrative track.

Editorial Ethos
Edits should follow the guidelines of Fireball’s visual identity. Fire-
ball prioritizes deep black shades and sharp lighting contrast in
most situations. Colors should be adjusted to fit the color guide.
Texture and sharpness should be carefully honed.

Videography

VIDEOGRAPHY
Fireball recognizes the great potential of our video department and intends to grow our
video content into a central feature of our marketing. At present, Fireball’s video department
is largely supported by other media types that drive engagement to our video content. This

CHARACTERISTICS paradigm only increases the importance of the video’s cohesion with the rest of the brand.

Principles
Many of our competitors release videos full of fast cars with little
to say about the product they are advertising. Fireball strives to
be a counterpoint to this. Fireball videos should never be just a
collection of footage. To engage viewers, we need a narrative
thread. Every video should include actual information about our
company or our products. By the midpoint of each video, the
viewer should know something about Fireball that they did not
know before. This applies to all videos, regardless of tone or genre.

Tone
The tone of a video can vary depending on the type of video,
but it typically aims to be informative, friendly, and informal but
professional. This means that the video should be easy to under-
stand and engaging, while still maintaining a level of respect for
the viewer. The tone should also be consistent with the overall
message of the video.

LOCATION
The selection of filming locations varies by project. In general, locations should be clean,

LIGHT
Lighting should be clear and illuminating, but not harsh. Proper exposure, as indicated

used as well, if necessary.
