Foxtel has launched a campaign to introduce a new positioning and logo.
The rebrand follows Foxtel’s merger with pay-tv operator Austar.
Foxtel has dispensed with the orange colouring and search lights in its logo, and gone for a metallic sheen.
The new logo is similar to that of UK pay-tv broadcaster Sky, also owned by New Corp, which is metallic and features two joined up letters.
Foxtel had not answered Mumbrella’s questions on whether the brand revamp was designed to look like Sky’s at the time of writing.
Ed Smith, Foxtel’s executive director of sales and marketing, said in a statement: “We’re taking this opportunity to change the way we communicate. Throughout July and August, you’ll see big bright images and content in our marketing, simplicity and playfulness in our language, using style and fun to cement our positioning as Australia’s best entertainment company.
