Optim is an Australian logistics provider delivering global solutions for high value and time-critical transport challenges.
Since acquired by current management in 2016, Digital Tsunami has closely collaborated with Optim to refresh the brand identity and ensure consistency across all online and print collaterals.
The latest design task has been ‘wrap’ artwork for the cab, aerodynamic roof fairing and rear doors of an Isuzu Tautliner pantech truck. Extending a concept design included in the original identity presentation; body panels display a solid corporate blue background with white logo, wordmark and brandline, over the ‘watermark’ of a cropped, oversize, icon. The curtain sides of the Tautliner are blue, ensuring a bold overall appearance.
As with all the most powerful identities, the icon combines literal and symbolic elements. The origin is the capital ‘O’ of Optim; the circular wheels of vehicles in a shipment’s journey; supplemented by the Zen ensō symbol to represent the search for perfection, and a wholistic, agile approach to problem solving around the globe.
Digital Tsunami has designed a website, video, electronic document templates, presentation folder, business cards, A5 notepads, and office signage.
Optim has also produced a multitude of premiums, including a sustainable carry bag, and even a ship model in Lego!

Optim has a reputation for facilitating solutions for internationally challenging, exceptionally valuable and critically time-sensitive logistics with a highly agile approach and exceptionally personalised service.
Digital Tsunami has closely collaborated with Optim to ensure branding consistency across all client touchpoints.
Firstly, Digital Tsunami refreshed the 1992 Optim identity. Secondly, electronic document templates were designed. Thirdly, business cards and A5 notepads were designed and printed, ‘wrap’ artwork for a prime mover designed, and office signage co-ordinated. Fourthly, Digital Tsunami developed the online presence and edited a dynamic video to convey the geographical and transport methods utilised in serving Optim clients.
The most recent deliverables included a high-end presentation folder and electronic templates for datasheets and case studies. These will be utilised for new business pitches and printed quotations.
By designing electronic templates, Optim’s investment is maximised, as they enable bespoke in-house customisation and on-demand printing.
The presentation folder was designed with powerful visuals and minimal text (logo and brandline only), to maximise shelf life, as future telephone or address changes will not render the folder redundant.
The folder was printed on stiff card with spot colour, matt lamination and a gloss spot UV finish, to maximise impact. An impressive image of a vast load of equipment on a tarmac awaiting aircraft loading, was printed on the inside of the folder and the document flaps, to maximise impact when opened.

The China energy sector is the world’s most active, following the central government’s initiatives to reduce emissions while powering dramatic growth. Despite a long-term reliance on coal, China has been the world leader in wind farm construction and is encouraging clean and sustainable power sources.
Based in the northern province of Ningxia, Hanas New Energy supplies millions of residential and business consumers with clean energy from natural gas, LNG and wind power. Expansion plans required both Chinese and English language print collaterals, video and photography.
Digital Tsunami founder Andrew W Morse was engaged as Creative Director of this extensive project. With 3 decades of experience working in greater China, Morse has the credentials to deliver high quality bilingual content from video and computer graphics to photography, online sites and print.
Embarking on this project, required the engagement of appropriate local resources based in Shanghai. Morse supervised the recruitment of a production team comprised of Chinese and English native speaking copywriters, graphic designer, video editor, executive assistant to the Creative Director and financial controller working under the aegis of the project Director. A sophisticated 4K video edit suite was custom built and installed in the 55th floor office of Hanas in Pudong.
To capture dramatic imagery of the locations and operations of Hanas, Morse briefed (and frequently accompanied) photography, aerial and video teams to numerous locations around the country.
In addition to producing evocative imagery, booklets were designed and printed for Hanas. These were based on a style guide and infographics developed by the Creative Director and graphic designer.
Since 2013, Digital Tsunami has produced photography, print, online and video solutions for the Hanas Group.
