ktoles Posted August 28, 2014 Report Posted August 28, 2014 I'm not sure what everyone is freaking/stressing out about. I myself really happen to enjoy the color pallets that have been presented as well as the renderings. I think it'll make for a very vibrant and colorful games! I also am starting to not worry nearly as much. Yes, while issues with the bay still very much need to be addressed, where they held the test event for the sailing, went much better than I thought it would. It looks like things are coming together nicely and things should be well in hand by the time we get to 2016.
woohooitsme83 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Posted August 30, 2014 The Rio2016 volunteer page has an interesting twist of the look.. (I like it!)
Athensfan Posted August 30, 2014 Report Posted August 30, 2014 The Rio2016 volunteer page has an interesting twist of the look.. (I like it!) Eww. I don't like that.
baron-pierreIV Posted August 30, 2014 Report Posted August 30, 2014 The Rio2016 volunteer page has an interesting twist of the look.. (I like it!) That's it? They gotta be kidding. Airport-gatecrasher Marilyn Hartman could easily get away as a bonafide volunteer with those boring, unimaginative outfits. What are they thinking???
Athensfan Posted August 30, 2014 Report Posted August 30, 2014 I didn't even notice the outfits. I just thought the graphic design was bad. If those are the volunteer uniforms, they'll be almost impossible to spot.
Victor Mata Posted August 30, 2014 Report Posted August 30, 2014 I see nothing about the volunteer outfit being this blue one. It could be the grey. Most certainly neither...
woohooitsme83 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Posted August 30, 2014 Eww. I don't like that. 'I like it' as in "its-okay-I-guess" That's it? They gotta be kidding. Airport-gatecrasher Marilyn Hartman could easily get away as a bonafide volunteer with those boring, unimaginative outfits. What are they thinking??? I hardly think those will be the official outfits. Anywho, there's more The solid color polo and gray pants seems to be a common trend in them (which still doesn't narrow down the uniqueness of them currently)
baron-pierreIV Posted August 30, 2014 Report Posted August 30, 2014 OK, I get it now. It's just the announcements for the Call for Volunteers -- but they're using would-be Vols and some name athletes. Hopefully, that's not confusing for a Brazilian.
TorchbearerSydney Posted August 30, 2014 Report Posted August 30, 2014 Those photos are hideous- they don't even look like professional shots. As for the extended 'noodle' version of the logo- yuk!
Athensfan Posted August 30, 2014 Report Posted August 30, 2014 The photos and the "noodles" are terrible. Clearly those aren't the volunteer uniforms though.
woohooitsme83 Posted August 31, 2014 Report Posted August 31, 2014 Oooooh! Is it about time to start a Rio2016 Slang Index? Let's see, we have the "Blob" and the "Noodles". Anything else?
mr.bernham Posted August 31, 2014 Report Posted August 31, 2014 Eww. I don't like that. I love it...very Athens like.
Athensfan Posted August 31, 2014 Report Posted August 31, 2014 I love it...very Athens like. That volunteer recruitment image with the colored "noodles" on the white background looks nothing like Athens. If you disagree, show me a side by side photo that says otherwise. If you're confused as usual and thinking we're talking about the overall look (which we weren't), I don't really see that argument either as Athens had a broader color palette and a much more refined and detailed design language (sun, waves, amphora patterns, ancient writing, etc.). The only similarity is that Athens and Rio are both fairly "sunny" looks, but IMO Athens was much more nuanced and polished. I've already said I think the overall look will make for very pleasant environments. It's not very original, but it will do the job just fine and is a big improvement over London.
woohooitsme83 Posted August 31, 2014 Report Posted August 31, 2014 Athens was more draw-y Rio is more wavy Don't think they correlate.
DannyelBrazil Posted September 1, 2014 Author Report Posted September 1, 2014 The volunteers uniforms are still to be unveiled. Some of the pictures features athletes using the Brazilian uniforms for London 2012... Like this... And I bet the volunteers uniform will feature the look of the games.
Throne Posted January 26, 2015 Report Posted January 26, 2015 I think Rio will come true with a sensational look. There is simply nothing to doubt given what we have seen. I wonder, though, if they will be able to surpass (what many in the movement have agreed) about the superlative branding and visual mastery of the look of Vancouver.
bairrosfelipe Posted April 7, 2015 Report Posted April 7, 2015 II found a short video on instagram with any event using the look of the games for some reason... https://instagram.com/p/1JselnMAhA/?taken-by=burunciuk_121
ofan Posted April 7, 2015 Report Posted April 7, 2015 II found a short video on instagram with any event using the look of the games for some reason... https://instagram.com/p/1JselnMAhA/?taken-by=burunciuk_121 If you look closely that gymnast is being filmed and that isn't a Rio games venue. I'm guessing that it is for one of those PG&E commercials that ran for London 2012: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2V-20Qe4M8Y It's clearly for a commercial of some sort, and the US flags tell me that it will be an English language one.
bairrosfelipe Posted April 7, 2015 Report Posted April 7, 2015 Indeed, it makes sense. Anyway they taked some dumb voluntataries
plusbrilliantsexploits Posted April 7, 2015 Report Posted April 7, 2015 Felipe, have the volunteers already been recruited? Do you know anyone who made it?
bairrosfelipe Posted April 7, 2015 Report Posted April 7, 2015 Felipe, have the volunteers already been recruited? Do you know anyone who made it? Yes. The Rio-2016 comitê started with the training last month . And no, i don't know someone is working like volunteer.
