Blast.tv Paris Major: A French Esports Spectacle

 

We were thrilled to be part of the Blast.tv Paris Major, the largest Esports tournament ever held in France. This spectacular event gathered the top teams worldwide, displaying their skill and strategy. It was also a celebration of the vibrant Esports community. As the final major in CS:GO history, the tournament called for trophies reflecting this exceptional occasion's significance.

 

The Design Process

 

The design process of the BLAST Paris Major 2023 awards was a meticulous journey. Utilizing materials known for their versatility, we created parts that would come together to form the final trophy.

To capture the identity of BLAST.tv Major, we incorporated its branding colors, Blast Purple and Blast Yellow, into the design. The trophies were carefully crafted with a two-tone approach, with the yellow part standing out from the purple triangle. The yellow component was created using two separate shells, carefully shaped and combined to achieve the desired organic shape.

Meticulous Craftmanship

 

Attention to detail is paramount in the design process. The trophies were designed to be weighty, adding a sense of substance and significance to the awards. The two halves were seamlessly joined together, ensuring the seam was flawlessly concealed. We ensured that the trophies appeared cohesive, with no visible indications of their separate parts.

For the purple section of the trophies, we followed a detailed process. First, the yellow part was meticulously masked to protect it from purple paint during the subsequent stages. Then, the surface was sanded and primed to achieve a smooth and even texture. The final step involved the application of paint and varnish, resulting in a polished, vibrant, and professional finish.

To bring all the components together, the different parts of the trophy were bonded using adhesives. This ensures their stability. The use of adhesives provided strength and ensured a seamless and cohesive look.

Blast.tv's Identity

 

Throughout the design process, the blobs' significance in the BLAST.tv Major's identity was taken into account. These liquid-like formations symbolized the lifeblood that powered the BLAST.tv bots, creating a fun and dynamic visual experience. By incorporating Blast Purple and Blast Yellow from the Blast.tv logo, we stayed true to the event's visual identity.
