Design parameters
Audis corporate design makes the brand identity visible
and helps to convey it in the communication of all web-based
digital media at Audi. The brand code pure & clean is the
basis of the visual identity. It highlights the brand essence
Vorsprung durch Technik and the brand value progressive.
Communication measures from the Audi brand are clear and
enthralling they are always reduced to what is essential
and focus on the product and its USPs. They convey an open,
positive attitude and are aimed at discerning, progressive
people.
The design parameters
The aim is a uniform image for the Audi brand in digital online
advertising. This is essentially achieved by means of the use
of the predefined basic elements and the strict application
of the design elements. The following parameters are critical
to the look of the brand code pure & clean:
the logo
the formal idiom, the typography and the colour code
the layout principle
In this guideline you will find all the necessary information to
create digital online advertising according to the Audi Corporate
Design.
Introduction

Audi online advertising
The premium credentials of the Audi brand are reflected not
only in Audis own website, but also in Audi advertising on
third-party websites. Audi online advertising stands out from
the visual noise of conventional banners as a result of its
design. The thematic surroundings of the websites on which
Audi advertising appears are chosen carefully.
The design of online advertising is based on that of classic
advertising. Advertising messages are transposed to the
Internet and further developed in a way that corresponds
to the technical and aesthetic peculiarities of the medium.
This par ticularly applies to Audi advertising campaigns that
are used across different media.
For Audi, progressive technology is a matter of course.
The latest web technologies are used in the implementation
of online advertising.
Audi actively uses the medium of the Internet and makes use
of innovative ad server technologies. Audi exploits existing
advertising formats to optimum effect to ensure carefully
targeted and efficient advertising. This guideline describes
how to use online advertising.

Basic design rules for Audi online advertising
The most important rules and advice for the design of online
advertising:
Positioning
Audi online advertising is positioned generously and exclu-
sively, for example as a banner, skyscraper, wallpaper or
content ad. The advertising should always be positioned
in an area that is immediately visible.
Online ending
Every item of animated Audi online advertising concludes
with the Audi online ending. As a fixed entity the ending
always includes the logo.
Style elements
The style elements asymmetry, dynamics, movement and
spaciousness stand for the Audi image and highlight the
visionary appearance of the advertising.
Cross-media communication
Online advertising should ideally be based on classic adver-
tising, transferring it to the web.
Browser compatibility
The advertising must not irritate the user nor be perceived
as distracting. Audi online advertising is displayed in a user-
friendly way on standard browsers and uses common plug-ins.
Animation
Animations should be used carefully and sparingly.

1 Formats
Audi online advertising can be divided into four different stand-
ard formats. The requirements in terms of online advertising
formats, functionality and file sizes are subject to ongoing
change and may differ depending on the ad server provider. For
this reason, in-depth consultation is required for each project.
1.1 Landscape format
Banners are the most widespread form of online advertising.
They appear in a broad range of formats.
Leaderboard banner
The leaderboard banner or superbanner is one of the most
frequently used banners, with a format of 728 90 px.
1-pixel border
So that the banner stands out clearly from the page back-
ground, the format may have a border comprising a black
1-pixel line.
1.2 Portrait format
Skyscrapers are vertical-format advertising spaces on the web,
which are normally positioned on the right next to the content
of a website.
Skyscrapers
Skyscrapers vary in height from 500 px to 800 px, and in
width from 120 px to 220 px. Standard sizes are usually
120 600 px and 160 600 px.

1.3 Square format
Various advertising spaces in square format are used on the
web. One of the most frequently used square ad formats is
the content ad.
Content ad
A content ad is integrated into a websites editorial area and
is surrounded by editorial content on at least three sides.
Content ad size
Due to their positioning, the size of content ads depends
greatly on the width of the copytext. A frequently used format
is 300 250 px. For advertising spaces with a mouseover
function, the online ad may be enlarged to a size of up to
500 500 px.
Donts
Power layers, pop-ups and pop-unders also have a square
format but most users now find them very distracting.
Theseadvertising formats do not comply with the premium
credentials of Audi and should not be used if at all possible.

e-tron
Every era has its technology.

Corporate Design Advertising Online Advertising AUDI AG 11/2010
1.4 Special formats
The web is undergoing constant development. As a result, new
advertising opportunities with special formats and new technical
processes are always appearing. Wallpaper, for example, has
now become a popular format.
Wallpaper
The special wallpaper format (or homepage takeover) com-
bines a banner and a skyscraper, with which the advertiser
frames almost the entire page.
Leaderboard banner/superbanner
Leaderboard banners/superbanners are normally in the
format 728 90 px (see section 1.1).
Skyscrapers
Skyscrapers vary in size. Skyscrapers with dimensions from
120 600 px to 220 600 px are often used for wallpaper.
1.5 Sources of information
Because the opportunities for interactive advertising spaces
on the web are being continually developed, close collaboration
with the relevant project contact personnel at Audi and the rele-
vant marketing agencies is recommended.
1.6 Further information
Information required by law and other information such as
opening times must be provided and included in the online
advertising.
Donts
In the case of animated online advertising, the Audi logo is not
integrated into the actual online advertising but only appears
in the online ending.

Corporate Design Advertising Online Advertising AUDI AG 11/2010
The Audi online ending is derived from the Audi products
and leads via the visually distinctive dimensions perceptive,
influential and imaginative to the brand logo.
The Audi online ending is compulsory for all countries. The
templates for the corresponding country versions are provided
centrally. If required, please send us an e-mail using the contact
form on the Audi Corporate Design portal. You will then receive
the appropriate country version from AUDI AG, in the ending
formats that you require.
The online ending concludes all Audi online advertising with a
standard strapline. Visually, it is closely related to the Audi TV
ending used worldwide and thus ensures standardised and pre-
mium-quality communication of the Audi brand across all media.
2.1 General use
Every item of animated Audi online advertising concludes with
the Audi online ending. These files may not be modified. All
advertising messages are faded into the online ending using the
colours black or white. When online advertising messages are
created, the maximum file sizes stipulated by the relevant ad
server provider must be adhered to.
The rings and Audi (without the claim) may be used for par-
ticularly small formats.
If sound is added, the heartbeat must be used for the online
ending. The sound file is available as a separate sound track to
download from the CD portal.

Audi online ending download 2.2 Ready-made file formats
Ready-made files are available in the Audi Corporate Design por-
tal for formats that are used particularly frequently. The follow-
ing steps for integrating the ending must be observed:
Step 1: Download
Download the appropriate template for the ending of your
online advertising from the CD portal: Advertising | Online
Advertising.
11
Corporate Design Advertising Online Advertising AUDI AG 11/2010
Step 2: Integration
In order to be able to play the ending in your film you must
integrate the file called ending_mc_ 000000.fla in your
Flash film.
Create a Flash file with identical dimensions and the same
frame rate (25.0 bps).
Open both documents alongside each other for a better
overview.
Copy the folder called audi flashbanner ending from
the library of the template file.
Paste this folder into the library of your own banner file.
In the main scene of your file, create a new level for the
ending script, which is above the other levels, and insert
a key image on the last frame.
Copy the key image on the first frame including the script
from the template file and paste it into your file on the last
frame of the script level.
When it is played, the banner will now stop automatically
at this point and the ending will start. Then the animation
will start again from the beginning.
After the last frame it is possible to change both the interval
until restart and the starting position.
The design of special formats
Special formats must be adapted accordingly and approved by
Audi. If required, please send us an e-mail using the contact
form on the Audi Corporate Design portal. You will then receive
the appropriate ending format from AUDI AG.

3.1 Typography
In online advertising, Audi typography is generally set flush left
and ragged, and positioned top left in the format. In the case
of animated banners the type area borders are 20 px. Static
banners are divided into two groups. In the case of large banners
the type borders are 15 pixels, and 10 pixels for small ones.
Headline offsetting is still available as an option. It may only be
used if it suits the content. Setting entire words in capitals is
not permitted. The typography is always set in black or white.
Audi Type, a sans-serif typeface that is particularly easy to read,
was created exclusively for Audi. Audi owns all licence rights.
It can be used free of charge worldwide for digital media, and
is used in various font styles: Audi Type Extended Normal, Audi
Type Extended Bold, Audi Type Regular and Audi Type Bold.
Headlines
Headlines are inserted as vector graphics. This is carried out
with the predefined font sizes and styles, Audi Type Extended
Normal and Audi Type Extended Bold. The font size of the
headlines depends on the size of the banner and the campaign
in question. The minimum font size is 10 pt (at 72 dpi), the
line-spacing is 130 % of the font size (smoothing: rounded).

Copytext
Depending on the file format, copytext may be used as graphic
text (picture or font/vector graphics with Flash) or in excep-
tional cases as HTML text. There are predefined font sizes
and styles for copytext. As graphic text: Audi Type Regular or
Audi Type Bold styles. The minimum font size is 10 pt (at
72 dpi), the line spacing is 130 % of the font size (smoothing:
rounded).
In exceptional cases the Verdana font can be used as HTML
text (smoothing: none). The minimum font size is 10 pt.
The colour of the copytext is determined by the background.
Black text is used on light background colours, and white
text on dark backgrounds. Copytext is always set flush left
in ragged paragraphs.
Production notes:
A suitable DTP program, e.g. Photoshop from version 6 upwards,
should be used for designing and generating headlines in GIF
format.

3.2 Colours
Audi colour code
With regard to the Audi colour code, the brand code pure &
clean signifies a reductive approach based on primary colours
that determine the overall appearance of all communication
media. This ensures a uniform, clear appearance.
Audi Aluminium Silver
The defining Audi colour is Aluminium Silver. It communicates
the sophistication and technological excellence of the products
(vehicles).
Download CD portal:
Basic elements / colours / Audi colour gradient
Audi Red
Audi Red is used primarily for the Audi logotype and for subtle
highlights (such as link arrows). It is a visual representation
of the brand value sporty. Audi Red must not be used for text.
White and black
Large areas of white are used as backgrounds and in three-
dimensional designs for surfaces. Black is primarily used
for text. The two colours white and black represent discerning
style and provide a contrast to Aluminium Silver.

Corporate Design Advertising Online Advertising AUDI AG 11/2010
In addition to the use of the Audi basic elements in a way that
is appropriate for the medium concerned, online advertising
makes use of pictures, illustrations and animations for the
design of advertising messages.
4.1 Pictures
The formal idiom pure & clean: This basic principle is
expressed in clear, precise perspectives. The formal idiom
conveys an open, positive basic attitude, with a strong
claim to modern aesthetics.
CAD-generated images, for example from Audi dealer adver-
tising, may be used in addition to colour photographs.
The pictures cover the entire area.
Attention must be paid to careful handling of pictures. Prod-
ucts can be illustrated in full, in part or in detail. The choice
of picture details must be appropriate. The rings on the vehicle
must not be bled off.
The stationary vehicle should preferably be depicted from
the front, from the side or directly from the rear (clear,
precise perspectives).
4.2 Illustrations
Illustrations in the form of line drawings may be used
in addition to pictures. Illustrations of people should be
avoided.

4.3 Animations using film-style presentation
The animation options for online advertising are many and varied.
Animations are used selectively to present the advertising mes-
sage in an exciting and dynamic manner that complies with the
premium claim. Audi online advertising focuses on realistic and
dynamic animated sequences.
Animating pictures
If images from current Audi campaigns are used as the tem-
plate for animations, it is important to avoid imitation film
sequences by animating individual image components. These
are usually still recognisable as fakes and so do not comply
with the quality and premium credentials of Audi. If animations
of this kind are used, they should be as realistic as possible.
If pictures (stills) are used, the following animation techniques
may be employed:
Movement
Movement can be portrayed by using tracking shots of the
picture motifs. The correct picture section provides the neces-
sary excitement.
Drama
Dramatic effects can be created by zooming into and out
of pictures. Details can play a key role when this technique
is used.
Fades
Pictures or coloured areas can be faded into one another.
Donts
Individual picture components (e.g. tyres or lights) are only
animated, rotated or zoomed in on separately if a realistic over-
all impression can still be created. If the effect is of an unreal-
istic imitation of real-life pictures, this form of animation should
not be used.
Animating pictures using tracking shots and
zoom
18
Corporate Design Advertising Online Advertising AUDI AG 11/2010
Integrating films
Audi films and film sequences may be integrated into online
advertising. If films are used, the scenes should be exciting
and of a high quality in terms of production techniques.
Animating typography
In the same way as the deliberate use of pictures, the look of
Audi online advertising is characterised by the sophisticated
use of typography. The consistent use of fonts gives the brand
a uniform and unmistakable look.
Text may be faded in and out. Fading should be dynamic.
Zooming into and out of headlines is permitted. Zooming
should be dynamic. Optimal legibility must be guaranteed.
The size difference when zooming into and out of text
should not be more than 160 %.
Text should remain stationary for a few seconds. During this
time, the text must not tremble or flicker.
Donts
Text must not move constantly. It is always still for a few
seconds.
Rapid transitions to text or fading do not create an impres-
sion of high quality. Transitions must be fluid and dynami-
cally coordinated with one another.
Zoom effects that are too rapid or extreme do not comply
with premium quality. They should be avoided.

5 Static online advertising
Static online advertising includes e-mail straplines and static
banners.
5.1 e-mail straplines
Format
The size of the e-mail strapline is fixed at 560 px 101 px.
Background
e-mail straplines should preferably have a background (e.g.
the predefined RGB gradient for digital media). In the case
of white backgrounds or background motifs that are not bled
off, the strapline is surrounded with a 1-pixel black line.
Type area
The type area borders are 10 pixels all round. All typographical
elements are positioned within the type area.
Rings with claim / Rings with logotype
The rings with claim or the rings with logotype are positioned
at the bottom right in the format. The height of the rings
is 20 pixels. The baseline of the Audi claim is aligned on the
lower edge of the type area. (The rings are positioned at one
ring thickness outside the type area.) The rings with logotype
are either at a minimum distance of one ring-thickness from
one another or the logotype is set flush left in the type area.
Rings and claim or rings and logotype are to be provided with
a protected zone the height of one ring inside the type area.
Detailed descriptions about the use of the logo and
logotypes can be found in the relevant guidelines on the
CD portal.

Checklist for briefing and release
Audi online ending
Animated Audi online advertising concludes with the Audi online ending.
The ready-made file formats are used for particularly popular formats.
New formats (special formats) are made available by Audi on request.
Typography
The specified font styles and font sizes have been complied with.
All the typography is set in black or white.
Colours
The Audi primary colours Audi Aluminium Silver, Audi Red, white and black
are emphasised in the images / the animations.
Pictures
The selected picture details are convincing and appropriate.
Animations
Animations are used sparingly and selectively.
Pictures (stills) are animated using tracking shots (movement of picture sections),
zoom and fading techniques.
The type area borders are 20 pixels on all sides.
Typography does not move constantly.
The size difference when zooming into and out of text is not more than 160 %.
Text is always stationary for a few seconds before and after an animation. It does not
tremble or flicker.
Static online advertising
The logo is positioned prominently in the location defined for the format.
The layout corresponds with the Audi design parameters.
Type area borders (10 px or 15 px) and logos (20 px or 29 px) are the correct size.
Interactive elements
The standardised design of interactive elements such as links, icons, buttons and
input boxes ensures that the Digital Media have a consistent appearance.
The interactive elements are used in accordance with their applications.
The templates from the CD portal have been used for any interactive elements.
Form boxes are aligned below one another so that there is room on the right for
an error message if required.
