27th Golden Melody Refresh

27th Golden Melody Refresh

Motion Graphic / Branding / 3D

TMRRW was commissioned to conceptualise and create the on-air packaging and show visual branding for the 27th Golden Melody Awards at Taipei, Taiwan. The Golden Melody Awards is the most important awards for Chinese popular music with millions of viewers worldwide. The Golden Melody Awards 金曲奖 is an honour awarded by the Ministry of Culture of Taiwan to recognise outstanding achievement in the Mandarin, Taiwanese, Hakka, and Formosan-languages popular and traditional music industry. ​​​​​​​

The organisers approached TMRRW to revitalise the event by incorporating a more youthful and vibrant visual approach that would appeal to the younger demographic but without alienating their older audiences. Colours play a pivotal role in energising the event. By using a palette that blends electric neon hues with some subdued tones, we created a vibrant yet balanced aesthetic that feels fresh and modern. Neon pinks, electric blues, and citrus yellows can inject vitality and draw younger audiences, while deeper blues, golds, and classic reds can maintain a sense of sophistication for the older demographic.

Incorporating the glitch effect adds an element of disruption, symbolising a break from the conventional award show structure. This effect can be used in transitions, animations, and screen overlays, creating a feeling of unpredictability and excitement, echoing the evolving music scene.

Patterns Seeking a diverse in-house team, we launched the new immersive Spotify Premium
brand. The layered graphic system adds an additional narrative level that reflects Spotify
Premium’s deeper and richer listening experiences.

For the nominations bumpers, we’re taking a tongue-in-cheek approach by presenting categories through abstract and playful visuals allows for viewer engagement. The fun, slightly cryptic representations invite audiences to participate in figuring out each category, making the awards more interactive and memorable. This playful tone creates a sense of discovery while keeping the spirit of the awards intact.
