Booktrack Rebrand
Reading Come to Life
Booktrack is an e-book platform with a unique product offering: each title is accompanied by it’s own atmospheric soundtrack that syncs to your speed as you read.
Development of a refreshed visual system hinged on conveying the feeling of excitement and energy inherent in the Booktrack experience. The system takes on a surreal quality with explosive photographic treatments set against controlled typography and generously-applied white space. A refreshed logotype, sporting a custom face and simplified forms, is brought to life with a shifting colour system that mimics the left to right movement fundamental to the act of reading as well as the start-to-finish journey of storytelling. This work was completed at Jacknife with Jimmy Rose and Lucas Young.

Online, Booktrack faces challenges unique to the brand. Not only are they competing with well-established online book sellers, there is also the need to educate consumers on the product benefits. As a result, onboarding new visitors takes them through an introduction and product demonstration seamlessly before directing them into the user journey and product discovery. Purchase of Booktrack titles is streamlined down to a single click, placing an emphasis on improving simplicity for users and leaving fewer abandoned shopping carts for the brand.
