2007 HESTA Australian
Nursing Awards - www.hestanursingawards.com
HESTA
Super Fund is the industry fund for health and community
services. With over 550,000 members within the industry,
and the majority of these being nurses,
HESTA made an ideal major sponsor for the 2007 Australian Nursing Awards.
The
HESTA Australian Nursing Awards aim to showcase the efforts of inspirational
nurses throughout Australia.
As a valued existing client, HESTA approached WhiteRhino
with a brief to create the branding elements for the
HESTA Australian Nursing Awards campaign. The
following is a step-by-step look at the job from start to finish.
Branding Case Study
The process of designing a new brand identity is divided
into three distinct stages
1. Research / Creative / Concept
Development work to 1st Presentation
2. Design / Creative Refinements - 2nd Presentation
(The Tweaking Stage)
3. Master Logo Finalisation & Brand Rollout
Not every
brand identity project follows a strict regime however
many years of successful projects has lead us
to formulate a series of milestone stages.

1.1 :: Briefing

with comprehensive brief stating the main objectives
and proposed outcome for the event. A brief is
a great reference point for both WhiteRhino and
our clients to make sure everyone is acting in
the best interest of the jobs original objectives.

1.2 :: Research
This is an information gathering process that
helps provide a framework by which to analyse a
