Categories

Brand Voice
  • How do we best describe ourselves? As gutsy, resourceful and connected. What do we value? Integrity, action and independence.
  • Our brand personality traits -we are gutsy, resourceful and connected -reflect who we are and how we act, and make us stand out among news organizations.
  • AP’s values -integrity, action and independence -shape our trusted reputation and underscore the expertise that differentiates us from others in the industry. These brand values are the foundation for our behaviors, actions and culture.
Brand Imagery
  • Photography is not only a key product of AP, it is a powerful medium to tell our story. The prompt is a secondary visual element that strengthens the content relationship with the AP logo.
  • Use photographs that are rich in colors, employ striking cropping or subject matter, and help further our brand attributes.
  • Whenever possible, always use photographs in layouts where it is either full-bleed off the edge of the piece, or at least off one side in editorial layouts.
  • Emphasis should be put on the choice of a single image rather than a flurry of images. Never create mosaic images. If you must show many pictures as part of a composition, use the Image Stream, explained in section 3.8.
  • Photographs should not be distorted, colorized or have any other effects applied. Cropping should be used with restraint and only to achieve full­bleed images. The AP Watermark is the only graphic treatment that should be used on top of images.
  • Photos should be given prominence, without overuse of graphic treatments that diminish them.
  • Do not put photos into containing shapes; do not fade images with transparency or gradients.
  • In case you must show a combination of many photographs, use the Image Stream.
  • The Image Stream is a layout device where all images are kept in the original (uncropped) aspect ratios, but arranged along a common top or bottom axis at different scales, and surrounding a prompt line.
  • It allows each image to maintain its own strength and for the document to maintain a visual stability that is key to communicate AP’s value of integrity. It also affords designers a way out of cacophonous image mosaics.
  • [1] Streams should be arranged flush on the edges of the composition, while still respecting the top margin height. For the left and right margins, streams should bleed off the page or come as close to the edge as possible.
  • Ideally the Prompt will be aligned within a column of the grid so as to emphasize its strength. Margins between images should be two prompt-widths, like the grid’s margins.
  • [2] Variation in sizes and aspect ratios creates dynamic composition. Red prompt line emphasizes the alignment axis, reinforcing solidity and connectedness.
  • [1] Objects should align only on one axis.
  • [2] In a Stream, the prompt should always be surrounded by content on both sides.
  • [3] Do not use so many elements so as to make the Prompt feel insignificant.
  • [4] Do not use more than one prompt in a Stream.
  • [5] Do not alter the margins between images and the prompt. Margins should always be two prompt-widths.
  • [6] Vertical use is not advised as it connotes fragility. For vertical applications, see special use cases on the following page.
  • A stack of full-bleed images is built using a grid based on the AP logo’s size on the application.
  • In the case of vertical large-format pieces that must highlight a diversity of imagery while being visible from a distance (e.g., banners), a special exception to the image stream format is used only with the express approval of AP Corporate Communications.
Color Palette
  • Color is crucial to our visual identity. Neutral colors pair well with the Medium range. Deep colors pair well with Brights.
  • Color is crucial to our visual identity.
  • Color brings visual interest to our communications, helps to maintain a consistent look and feel, and differentiates us from other organizations. Each color palette has been chosen with specific functions in mind.
  • Inspired by our signature artwork, our primary color palette prominently features AP ID Red. However, AP ID Red should be used judiciously in order to maintain its prominence.

  • Using Deep and Bright colors together in applications such as video, Web and mobile will create a rich, engaging experience.
  • Pair deep colors with brights or neutrals…
  • Not multiple deep colors together, or brights and mediums.
Typography
  • The AP typography consists of two typefaces: Good and Freight Text.
  • AP typography consists of two typefaces: Good and Freight Text. Freight Text Book, 15pt
  • Good Book, 12pt
  • Both typefaces come in a variety of weights and style and offer flexibility of use. Commitment to these typefaces will create a consistent and strong identity. Below are a few distinctive feature of those typefaces.
  • When text such as “Associated Press” or long headlines are locked up with the logo, Good Condensed should be used.
  • When Good is not available for use, in some digital applications for example, it can be substituted by Verdana, and ifVerdana is not available, a sans-serif such as Helvetica and Arial can be used as substitution. When Freight Text is not available for use, Georgia should be the replacement typeface.
  • h1 Good Bold, All CAPS
  • Subhead / lead Georgia regular, Sentence case
  • h2 Good Bold, All CAPS
  • h3 Good Book, Sentence case
  • h4 Georgia regular, Sentence case,

Logo Usage
  • The AP logo is the single most powerful element in our identity.
  • Its upright black letterforms, solid baseline and red “prompt” underline are memorable and embody the values of integrity, action and independence.
  • The white “container” is an integral part of the logo, allowing it to be applied to any kind of content.
  • The AP signature is a combination of the logo and the words “Associated Press” aligned on a horizontal axis.
  • They follow simple rules to respect their integrity in all situations.
  • The AP logo and adjoining signatures follow simple rules to allow their integrity to be respected in all situations.
  • As a general rule, the width of the logo is the minimum protection area allowed on each lateral side of the mark, including when using the corporate signature.
  • It is perfectly acceptable to use a greater amount of space, leaving the logo as the dominant element and the signature a supporting element (figure 2).
  • Whenever possible, the AP logo should be positioned at the very top of the document, composition or application.
  • The AP logo should be dominant in any application.
  • In print use, the logo should never be smaller than .2 inches in height. When used in digital applications such as the Web or on mobile devices, 50 pixel tall should be the minimum size.
  • In special cases, such as icons which require a size smaller than the specified minimum, use a version specially rendered for that application. See section 2.8.1 for special small-use cases and section 5 for included Artwork.
  • In any applications, the AP logo should always be legible, dominant and unobstructed. This is essential to strengthening the AP brand.
  • Dominant logo leads the way.
  • Always place the mark as the lead into the content -neither below nor following the content. Content should not clutter this logo. This is to ensure the AP logo is highlighted and not lost.
  • Exceptions: When the document is in a right-to-left language, such as Arabic or Hebrew, the mark should live on the right side where the content begins.
  • Maintaining the integrity of the logo is essential to strengthening the APbrand.
  • Always use artwork that has been provided byAP Corporate Communications. When unsure about the way to proceed, give us a call or send us an email. (see last page)
  • The cases outlined here are in no way meant as an exhaustive list of all potential misuse of the AP logo.
  • It is recommended to use the logo on a color backdrop or a photographic backdrop.
  • Do not modify the logo in anyway, including: - Outline edges - Remove the white container or prompt - Position in a corner - Stretch - Stretch the white container - Detach the prompt from the logo - Rotate - Recreate - Use a different typeface - Change the color of container or prompt - Change the color of “AP” - Make into a lock up - Set into text
  • In keeping with our Masterbrand Strategy and the “One AP” mission, we are simplifying the face we put forward to customers. The goal is to ensure all touch points strengthen and promote the main AP brand.
  • This means that custom wordmark lockups are no longer acceptable. Product and division names can be highlighted by using a headline font, but will no longer be linked to the logo.
  • Do not create custom ‘lockup’ marks for divisions…
  • While maintaining the integrity of all elements of the visual system is critical, their adaptation to some special cases will occur from time to time.
  • If you believe you have a special case that is not answered in this document, DO NOT CREATE ORIGINAL ARTWORK. Simply direct your request to Corporate Communications (see the last page of this document).
  • In print applications, the logo should not be used smaller than .2 inches tall.
  • Special scenarios require redrawn logo artwork for optimal rendering at very small sizes. See section 5. Artwork for such files.
  • In video applications (e.g., in bugs or lower thirds), the logo may be set at 50 percent opacity, if needed.
Tone And Messaging
  • AP is unique in the world among news agencies in that our only agenda is news: We are solely focused on the mission of newsgathering, distribution and service.
  • With more experience reporting and delivering news than any other agency, our independent standing and a strong commitment to the people’s right to know, we are the definitive source for trusted news.
  • All of us at AP understand this extraordinary mission, which dates back to 1846. But it is also important to make a bold statement to customers, members and news consumers about what we do.
  • A strong brand helps us be clear about who we are and what we stand for. It lets us reinforce what is unique about AP and what customers and consumers can expect when they encounter AP news, people or products.
  • In 2009, AP undertook a strategic initiative to develop a masterbrand strategy that would define what makes us different from other news organizations, serve as a guide for business decisions and clarify the values and traits all AP staff embody. How do we best describe ourselves? As gutsy, resourceful and connected. What do we value? Integrity, action and independence.
  • The AP visual identity system brings these traits and values to life. It allows us to leverage the great work we do by uniting under a comprehensive look and feel, driving competitive advantage and creating a distinct footprint in the media marketplace.
  • AP’s values — integrity, action and independence — shape our trusted reputation and underscore the expertise that differentiates us from others in the industry. These brand values are the foundation for our behaviors, actions and culture.
  • Our brand personality traits -we are gutsy, resourceful and connected -reflect who we are and how we act, and make us stand out among news organizations.
  • As we continue our evolution to a diversified digital news company, our brand promise remains the same. The AP Masterbrand Strategy enables us to channel our brand traits, personality, vision and promise into a new visual identity system that captures our history and guides our future.

  • Pre-scaled logo PNG files and icons were optimized for their current size and are not intended to be enlarged.
Layout And Composition
  • The AP logo is to be the dominant element in all compositions.
  • The careful combination of graphic elements is what makes our brand strong.
  • The grid is a time-tested tool in creating harmonious compositions. We have devised a grid system that is based on the proportions of the AP logo.
  • The dimensions of the primary (vertical) logo will guide all grid making decisions. The width of the logo (x), its height (y), the height of the prompt (z), as well as the height of the AP letters (CAP), and the space between the prompt and the AP letters (1/2 CAP) are the variables used.
  • In special cases where the secondary (horizontal) logo is used, the width of the logo is wider (w), but all other variables remain the same.
  • Using those proportions supports elegant and strong compositions.
  • When determining a grid, begin with the width of the application.
  • Choose the appropriate size of the logo according to the sizing chart of the varying applications. Excluding special cases, logo width will be normally 1/10th or 1/12th the total application width.
  • The resulting width of the logo will serve as the determining measurement for column width.
  • The thickness of the prompt serves as the starting point for the gutter.
  • Both horizontal and vertical gutters are double the thickness of the prompt.
  • Once the logo size has been determined, place the maximum amount that will fit on the application, while including gutters (2z) between each instance of the logo (x).
  • If the total number is even, remove one instance to end with an odd number. Remove any gutters that are on the outside, and center the remaining instances and gutters to produce the grid’s columns. Any remaining space serves as the left and right margins.
  • The top margin is determined by the height (y) of the logo, as well as the grid rows. The gutter between rows is also twice the thickness of the prompt (22). Rows continue in this manner until the space remaining is less than the total height (y) and CAP height of the logo. The bottom margin is the remaining space.
  • See section 5. Artwork for preset grids for letter, tabloid, A4 and A3 paper sizes.
  • THE CONSTRUCTION OF A GRID FOR AN 8.5 x 11 INCH SHEET.
  • In cases using the horizontal mark, the columns and rows are determined in the same manner as when the vertical mark is used, yet the height of the row is the determining measurement of the grid, generated by the ratio between the height (x) and the total height of the application.
  • Additionally, the right margin is now determined by the width (w) of the logo, and the top, bottom and left margins are flexible.
Watermark Guidelines
  • Watermarks help identify AP materials in a subtle and tasteful way, especially when using images is not an option.
  • Designed as expanded, transparent versions of the AP letters in the AP logo, the watermarks strengthen the notion of connectivity that is a key attribute of the AP brand.
  • Watermark patterns serve as a graphic element that can be used to distinguish otherwise unmarked photos or blank space. Using the watermark allows the system to maintain a brand presence without the striking AP logo.
  • Patterns are acceptable over solid backgrounds and images, but should not be used when an image stream is in use, or a non-bleeding image is in use.
  • The thickness of the strokes should always be of the same thickness as the prompt to link the two and create a more harmonious composition.
  • Watermarks are made of three or four elements combined in an elegant composition.
  • Pre-composed watermark artwork is provided, but in cases where artwork needs adjustments (e.g., use with photographs), new compositions can be made by following these rules:
    • The distance between parallel elements should be greater than the width of the AP logo on the page.
    • Bleed the watermark on at least one side.
    • Follow color rules (Neutral or Bright on Deep or Photo, Neutral on Neutral or White)
    • The watermark should be independent of the content-not interfering nor interacting with photographs, text or the logo.
  • Proper watermark applications
  • Parallel lines should not come too close to each other
  • The watermark should not frame the content area
  • Avoid excessive number of watermark elements
  • Do not create recognizable shapes or letterforms
  • No arbitrary rotation of the watermark. Only rotate watermark elements at 90° angles
  • The elements should not be contained in a tight area
  • The elements should not intersect
  • The watermark should not interact with the content
  • Watermarks follow the general rules for color use.
  • Watermarks should always be rendered in Neutral or Bright colors and used only on the specified backgrounds.
Environmental Applications
  • This example demonstrates an environment that can be created within our graphic system.
