we use circles as an intriguing Canon more democratic and
invitation to look deeper into accessible to everyone. The

they are a facilitator or device
for telling the fascinating stories
and experiences that are critical
to what Canon represents. 

Our system is simple yet endlessly


flexible, based on a few key
principles. By applying the system
correctly and consistently, we’ll
ensure our identity always looks
relevant, fresh and distinctive.

Canon Visual Identity Guidelines Version 1.2 2.05

Our visual identity is applied across multiple media


channels. To help manage the work-flow across these
channels we have a communications framework called
the Three States.
The Three States refer to the Dreaming, Exploring
and Locating categories.
Dreaming — is traditionally categorised as above-
the-line. Our communications at this level are about
inspiring brand-led experiences and not products.
Exploring — traditionally below-the-line and on-line.
We use stories to communicate product range benefits.
Locating — is the most functional POS level of
communications and features our products and
product information.

Opacity mask

The CAS device features cut-through type


on the words ‘come and see’. There may
be instances when the cut-through lacks
definition on high contrast photography.

For this purpose we place the CAS device


over a transparent opacity mask in white
for lighter photographs and dark grey for
darker photographs.

The examples demonstrate how the mask


improves legibility.

Sizes

(X) (X) (X) There are three recommended scales for


the CAS device.

The size of the CAS device is determined by


the width of the Canon logo. When creating
an application apply the correct logo size for
the format first (see section 2.15). Then size
the CAS device at any of the shown scales
applicable to the application.

80% of (X) (X) 150% of (X) 1 Small (80% Canon logo size)
 Used when space within the design
is limited or when a smaller CAS device
is considered more appropriate.

2 Standard (100% Canon logo size)


 This is the CAS device size that is
to be considered the standard scale.

3 Large (150% Canon logo size)


 Used when space within the design
is not an issue or when more emphasis
on the CAS device is needed.

The exception to this principle is for


advertising as shown in section 2.36 - 2.37.

Positioning

The hierarchy of information is always:

• Experience (picture)
• Invitation (CAS device)
• Host (Canon logo)

This principle is shown left.

1 Logo bottom right


The hierarchy principle typically seen on
OOH applications (this being a 6-sheet.)

2 Logo top right


The hierarchy principle typically found on
printed applications (this being an A-size
landscape format).

The hierarchy principle on an environment.

Close arrangement

The CAS device is designed to be flexible and


applied to areas of the canvas with the most
impact. Although not recommended, there
2
may be instances where a close relationship
between the logo and CAS device is required.

Three lock-ups are shown. Use these as


a guide to create the lock-up following the
sizing and positioning principles.

1 Logo bottom right


This position would be typically seen
on media when the logo needs to be
an endorsement.

2 Logo top right


1
This position would be typically seen
on OOH media when the logo needs
to be at a prominent height.

If the Canon logo is positioned centre right,


either arrangement one or two can be used.

3 Logo top left


This position would be typically seen
online and on hand-held devices.

ATL lock-up version

There is a specific lock-up designed solely


for use in ATL. This lock-up should not be
used anywhere else.

The positioning principle still holds true that


the Come and See device is the invitation
from the host (Canon) to the experience but
in ATL the experience is the digital experience
(website), so the invitation points instead to
the call to action (CTA).

The CTA position and colour (black, white


or red) are set, but the type size is flexible
depending on the application (use common
sense to ensure correct visual balance and
legibility).

Translation and position of asterisk

In countries where the law requires a


translation of the words ‘come and see’
we will use an asterisk to guide readers
to the translation.

The asterisk should be the same colour as


the CAS device. i.e. Canon Red or white.

Cropping

The circles must be cropped by at least 10%


of the circle width. No circle may be cropped
any smaller than a quarter-circle. The aim
is to see a circle and not a curve.

Cropping is only applicable to the solid,


keyline and transparent circles.

with an opacity. It can add a subtle highlight
to areas of an image.

 Maximum size is determined by
the margins of the shortest edge.

Light circle opacity strength

The light circle should act as a faint effect


to highlight the key area of an image.

The opacity strength may vary depending


on the image colour and depth.

On dark images start with a 10% opacity


of white and increase or decrease to create
a subtle effect.

1 4% — too faint

2 10% — OK

3 40% — too heavy

The light circle is intended to appear


large over an image — multiple circles
are not permitted.

Photography and video


Canon Visual Identity Guidelines Version 1.2 2.77

As an imaging brand, all Canon photography and video


should be of the highest quality, show interesting visual
perspectives and demonstrate creative use of imaging
technology and techniques.
This section is an overview of the key principles.
For more technical photography and video information
please refer to the photography and video guidelines.
Canon Visual Identity Guidelines Version 1.2 2.78

Photography and video
Experience photography and video

We live in a world full of experiences with


fascinating and enriching stories, waiting
to be discovered. Our captured experiences
are an invitation to the curious explorer to
pause for a moment, to look deeper, to see.
Challenging convention, precious moments
and discoveries are shared through imagery
that intrigues, delights and provides a new
perspective on the world we think we know.

© Thorsten Milse, Canon Ambassador


Canon Visual Identity Guidelines Version 1.2 2.79

Photography and video
Experience photography and video

Understanding that experiences activate


diverse senses, the moment captured
must connect emotionally with the audience.
How might it feel, smell, sound or even taste?
The art of capturing experiences is the ability
to take the viewer on a journey of discovery,
inviting them to become part of the moment.
We capture experiences with a sense of open
possibility, allowing imaginations to decide
what came before or what comes next.

Experience photographs should be:

• Dynamic — photographs should never


be bland, but should always be interesting
and unexpected, inviting the customer into
a new world.
• Real — images should always feel
authentic, minimal retouching is acceptable
but avoid excessive Photoshop effects.
•  Inviting — there should always be a strong
sense of depth with a background and
foreground, where possible.

These principles apply to the following


types of imagery:

• 
Brand Imagery
• 
Sample Imagery
• 
Campaign Imagery
• 
Stock Imagery
• 
Event Imagery

Video Types:

• 
PR Videos
• 
Instore Videos
•
