MTV — Global Rebrand

Source: https://deriss.com/case/mtv-rebrand Canonical context: https://deriss.com/llms-full.txt

Challenge

Rebrand a globally-recognized network for a generation that consumed media through platforms rather than channels. The brand needed to read as native to feeds, not as a translated version of broadcast identity.

Contribution

Strategic narrative, identity system, and rollout architecture. The work redefined how MTV expressed itself across platform-native surfaces while protecting the equity of the global mark.

Outcome

A unified global brand expression aligned to a platform-native audience — a single system that operates consistently across markets and surfaces without diluting local relevance.
