Digital studio undergoes rebrand following major growth plans

Cardiff-based digital studio Rantmedia has announced a rebrand and relaunch to Rant, as part of an ambitious growth plan and its 20th anniversary this year.

The rebrand for the agency, who’ve created and developed apps for partners such as the NHS, BBC, Veygo and Aston Martin, reflects the agency’s growth since its 2003 launch, with a focus on integrity, creativity, expertise and passion to reflect the latest brand vision.

Over the past two years, the digital-studio has seen a 160 per cent turnover growth, and added four new members to the board.

The board includes Anton Faulconbridge as CEO, Danielle Llewellyn as operations director, Gwen Vaughan as product director, Chris Done as commercial director and Amy Thorne as creative director.

Rant will also be hiring for a number of positions later in the year including iOS developers, Android developers, full stack developers, product and UX designers and multiple project managers. By adding talented team members, the team are confident that they’ll be able to scale up and meet the demands from current partners and their products.

Anton Faulconbridge, CEO of Rant, says: “The rebrand was the next logical step for the company. Partners and investors often refer to us as Rant, and drop the ‘media’ that comes alongside it. The letterforms that we’ve chosen are professional, yet playful, which allow us to stand out against our competitors, while adding in personality to the branding.

“The relationships we create, the work we deliver and how we operate has changed a lot since we set up in 2003, and while why we do the work remains the same, the current brand no longer closely reflects who we are or even what we do for our partners.

“The whole team have all helped contribute to the branding, and we’re so proud of how the brand reflects the growth we’re aiming for and the journey we’re heading on.”
