UFO Studios / Institutional identity

Logo
Guide

The seal identifies the studio. It does not decorate the world. Use approved artwork, give it room, and let the strange machinery speak for itself.

Canonical source boundary

The full transparent PNG served here is byte-for-byte identical to the approved web master already used by UFO Studios. The symbol is extracted from that artwork. No generic UFO, reconstructed lettering, or fake vector file is present.

01 / Primary institutional mark

Master Mark

The circular UFO STUDIOS / SINCE 1987 seal is the primary institutional mark of UFO Studios.

Use approved master artwork only. Never substitute a generic UFO or recreate the seal from memory.

Below minimum sizeUse the approved Saucer Symbol. Do not crush the full seal until its type becomes texture.

02 / Secondary symbol

Saucer Symbol

The center saucer and beam are extracted from the canonical seal without its enclosing circle. This is not a redesign.

Use it only where the full seal cannot stay legible: favicons, app-scale UI, tiny interfaces, motion signatures, and embossing.

03 / Production rules

Keep the Signal Intact

A small set of repeatable constraints is more useful than a giant brand manual nobody opens.

A / Color

Single-color authority

Warm cream
on near-black Black
on light White or cream
on dark

No gradients or arbitrary recoloring inside the master artwork.

B / Clear space

Minimum 2X

2X2X

X is the height of the antenna ball plus its short stem. Keep at least 2X around the outside edge; hero placements deserve more.

C / Backgrounds

Quiet fields only

Use solid charcoal/black, warm cream/paper, or quiet photography with enough contrast. Avoid busy imagery.

D / Product relationship

Maker, then product

UFO STUDIOSpresentsUFO ONE

UFO Studios is the maker. UFO ONE is the product. Product names never move inside the studio seal.

Production guardrailNever do thisOpen list
  • Stretch, compress, skew, or place the mark in casual perspective.
  • Rotate casually, outline it, add shadows, chrome, 3D effects, or arbitrary color.
  • Fill it with imagery, accidentally crop it, or break it apart into new compositions.
  • Retype the seal, add decorative rings, or combine it with another UFO drawing.
  • Artificially distress the master. Environmental aging belongs to the artifact—not the source artwork.
