Can I Stream It?

Less Searching. More Watching.

Challenge

One sunny Friday afternoon the Urban Pixels team started talking about streaming movies. This topic of conversation led quickly to a shared frustration of having to search dozens of sites individually, just to find one movie to watch– in today’s day and age there has to be a better way, they exclaimed, and there was not – www.canistream.it was born to solve the movie streamer’s exasperation.

No longer do you have to search dozens of sites individually, just to find one movie to watch!

It was time for a brand update.

We crafted a message to speak honestly to our target audience while staying true to our values and direction that Can I Stream It? envisions for future growth. “Less Searching. More Watching.” resonated with our users out of a few other brand messages. We tested them out on family members as well as a few trusted colleagues who use CISI regularly and overwhelmingly they seemed to gravitate towards the new messaging.

We are inspired that our users will recognize the purpose and direction of the new Can I Stream It? brand, and we are optimistic that the partial rebrand will naturally increase awareness reach new target demographics and draw in business through a novel identity and exceptional creativity. The partial rebrand was to be launched concurrently with a visual facelift and new back-end system which made CISI faster and return more accurate results.

Evolving the Can I Stream It? logo.

All design changes with time.
