To familiarise the general public with our aural house style, it’s important that we all communicate in a consistent way:

Video

Sound logo:

Mandatory in every new video, both long-form (YouTube) and short-form (social media)

  • long-form: including baseline and spoken brand name
  • social media: excluding baseline and spoken brand name (can be included if you want, of course)
  • in a video with interruptions: the sound logo concludes each part

Brand music or elements thereof:

These can be freely used to aurally support the video as a whole.

Audio - podcast

Sound logo:

Mandatory in every new podcast, regardless of brand voice (mother, daughter, sister voice/sponsoring or co-branding)

At the start of the podcast:

  • sound logo excluding baseline and spoken brand name

At the end of the podcast:

  • sound logo including baseline and spoken brand name
  • this is always the final audio track of the podcast
  • in a podcast with interruptions (pause/advertising), the sound logo concludes each part of the podcast

Brand music or elements thereof:

These can be freely used to aurally support the podcast as a whole.

Audio campaign (only for ADMCOM and University Fund, only when validated by ADMCOM)

Sound logo:

Mandatory in every new audio campaign

  • sound logo including baseline and spoken brand name
  • always the same signature, regardless of the brand voice (mother/daughter)
  • this is always the final audio track of the campaign

Brand music or elements thereof:

These can be freely used to aurally support the campaign as a whole.

Audio - hybrid events

Brand music

  • recommended as background music: before the stream starts and during breaks
  • recommended as ambient music in videos during events: general rules for video apply
