A visual system built to race

Ferrari entered competitive esports and needed an entire visual world from zero — one that could go live on broadcast, scale across digital, and stay unmistakably Ferrari season after season. We owned it end to end, for three.

Ferrari Esports Series broadcast overlay system designed for live competition

A championship with no playbook

Ferrari took its name into competitive racing online. There was no existing toolkit and no precedent to lean on — the championship needed a full visual ecosystem from scratch, able to hold up across digital platforms, live broadcast and global communication at the same time.

The hard part was never a logo. It was building a system that performed live, scaled across markets, and still read as Ferrari at a glance — under the pressure of a real broadcast, week after week.

Season 1 — the core identity and broadcast foundation.

One team, one system

We led the project as creative direction and design, owning the whole visual world rather than delivering a single asset. Every output inherited the same language, the same motion logic, the same rules.

  • Visual identity the design language, grid and motion system that everything else was built on.
  • Broadcast graphics live overlays, lower-thirds and replay packages engineered to perform on air.
  • Digital & campaign web, social and content systems that carried the identity across every platform.
  • Motion & events video direction and on-site visual systems for studio and live moments.

Season 1 — Foundation

The first season set the ground rules: a core visual language and a broadcast identity strong enough to build on. We defined the grid, the motion logic and the overlay system that everything else would inherit — a foundation, not a one-off.

Season 2 — Expansion

With the foundation live, season two scaled up: more content, more formats, more competitive structure. We evolved the broadcast package and the digital system to carry higher volume without losing a single beat of consistency.

Season 3 — Maturity

By the third season the system was at full maturity — running live competition, digital communication and physical environments while staying clear, fast and coherent under pressure.

Impact

Renewed for three consecutive seasons, the project became a stable, recognizable visual ecosystem. Longevity was the result that mattered: a system that kept performing live and adapting over time, never rebuilt from scratch — proof that the foundation was right the first time.

Project FAQ

What was the challenge?
Building one visual ecosystem that could operate globally across competitive esports, live broadcast and physical events — and stay consistent and clear across three seasons, from screen to on-site.
What was Neverblank's role?
Creative direction and design, end to end: identity, broadcast graphics, digital, social, motion and event systems, owned and coordinated across every season.
Why is this relevant for similar brands?
It's a blueprint for any brand launching an esports, gaming or live-entertainment property: a scalable system designed to perform live, span platforms and evolve over time instead of being remade every year.
