Jonny Quest Digital Style Guide

The Jonny Quest Digital Style Guide was a merchandising tool issued to potential customers by Cartoon Network in anticipation of the premiere of The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest. Using Quicktime navigation, it featured five sections: Program Introduction, Brand Identification, Product Applications, Design Elements and Character Art. One could select a section after watching a preview movie of several clips; the introduction gives a small blurb on the show and the disc's purpose. Brand Identification includes packaging designs, "hang tags", logos, and legal information. Product Applications features four different themes for projects, called Aero, Hydro, Terra, and Questworld. Design Elements include fonts, icons, borders, and backgrounds. The Character Art section details colors for each character and displays several sketches and situational art (both sketched and colored).

Daily Variety ran a news article on the guide, which you can find here. You can download all the images in the digital style guide here (RAR, 10 MB).

Exotic locales and uncompromising climates set the stage for the characters of The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest. Jonny, the adventure seeking, risk taking teenager is joined by his father, Dr. Benton quest; his philosophical Indian friend Hadji Bingh; that ageless man of action, Race Bannon; Jessie, Race's quick thinking daughter; and the ever loyal masked bulldog, Bandit, as he journeys into worlds unimagined, chasing adventures only dreamed of.

Exploring nebulous legends, lost civilizations, and the Cyberspace of QuestWorld, Jonny and the entire Quest Team come face to face with the most wretched and diabolical villains of the known and virtual worlds.
