EA Sports: The creation of the EA Sports FC Brand
Listen now
Description
On this show, our guest is David Jackson, Vice President of Brand for EA SPORTS FC. David, or DJ as he's often called, could be considered as presiding over the biggest piece of brand work seen in football for decades, the creation of EA SPORTS FC, the brand that will be replacing FIFA as the title of EA SPORTS football video game series - which is also the best-selling sports video game series of all time. Since launching as FIFA International Soccer in 1993 FIFA has become synonymous with football culture and over the next 30 years became the primary way many fans engage with the sport. We talk to DJ about the creation of the FC visual identity, as well as how the new brand goes beyond a logo and what we can expect from it in the future.
