Concept Match Graphics for the Canadian Premier League

A new modular design system created to broadcast the beautiful game in Canada. The Canadian Premier League is the highest level of professional soccer in Canada. 8 teams compete each other four times between April and October, with a playoff round at the end of the season. With this project, my goal was to create a distinct motion design system for the CPL broadcast that was clear, adaptable and modern.
