Our brand
Our brands are valuable assets. It is a reflection of our organisational values, and of us as individuals who represent AusTriathlon, including through our sub brands such as MOV3.
This guide has been specifically created to present all of our communications not just in a consistent and clear manner, but also in a way that presents Aus3 as a united front to the public, our members, and to our industry, distinguishing us from other sporting bodies and organisations.
This guide sets out how we present the MOV3 brand when working with visual and written elements. It provides exact advice on how to use the MOV3 logo and its related elements.
Adherence to this guide is a requirement for any use of the MOV3 brand and its related elements.

MOV3 Logo
Primary Logo
Our MOV3 logo is bold, vibrant, and engaging.
The customised font used is friendly and playful with its soft curves, and shows flow between the elements, representing the components of triathlon.
Our colourful gradient represents the broad range of abilities, fitness levels, and demographics involved in triathlon, all coming together in a manner that highlights the accessibility of our sport.
Logo Variants
The primary logo has four variants:
- Colour
- Reversed
- Greyscale
- Mono
Preference for use is as per numbering.
Our logo has very vibrant colours, so it is best to supply both RGB (as the reference file for colour) and CMYK files to production teams so that they can determine the best output for their particular colour reproduction process.

Photographic Style
We use photos to add life and context to our materials.
Photos should appear natural, and in full colour, without any filters or other obvious colour grading on them; the exceptions to this rule are hero or composite images (such as used in website homepage hero and posters), and these are to created by graphic designers.
Photos should be warm in tone, and feel optimistic and light. Avoid dark, gloomy images.
Action Photography
Ideally, subjects should be engaged in one of the sporting activities and should show them having fun, looking strong, or a sense of camaraderie. Individuals children should not be shown in isolation (i.e. running on their own with no other visible competitors or spectators).
The best photos capture the emotion of the moment (kids surprising themselves with their achievements), or the engagement between individuals (demonstrating the community that can be found in triathlon).
Community Photography
Photos should be diverse, inclusive and reflect our community – they should cater to all levels of sporting ability, age range of Aus3 target audience, and gender.
Children enjoying the event should be the focal point. They should look like they are having fun, not too distraced by the camera. The audience should feel encouraged to join the community and participate in the events.
Ideally, there should be multiple children in shot, even if only one subject is featured – i.e. more children in the background, including out of focus and in the distance. This helps show community and group participation.
Staged Photography
Staged photography is used for banners and advertising, featuring children in their ‘power’ pose. These photos should show combinations of the elements of confidence, achievement, empowerment, and pride.

Copywriting
The way we speak as a brand should accurately reflect who we are, regardless of the medium or the audience. To ensure consistent alignment with the Aus3 brand, we have developed the following guide.
MOV3 builds on the fun and inclusivity of Aus3, providing the next step for primary students who want to continue their swim, bike and run journey in a club environment. Our tone maintains the welcoming, encouraging spirit of Aus3 while introducing more structured development opportunities. We focus on personal achievement within a friendly and supportive community setting.
Our communication balances excitement about club activities with reassurance for both young participants and parents. We emphasise the social aspects of club membership and the fun of being part of a team with introducing more triathlon-specific language. At all times, we aim to be accessible and encouraging, never intimidating or overly technical.
We celebrate improvement and achievement at all levels, focusing on personal development rather than competitive pressure, and ensure everyone feels they belong in the triathlon club environment.
If you have questions about how to apply these guidelines, please contact brand@triathlon.org.au.
