The Brand

The shape of the logo is a modern take on a monogram; the original design was inspired by Penrose illustrations. The mark incorporates Rue’s love of both games and technology. The brand strives to convey a practical level of professionalism and empathy with a flair of fun. The foundation of Rue Helu Voice Over is professionalism first, to provide the highest quality of service possible, but not without empathy as a strong influence to keep the business grounded.
