The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is the first role that made Will Smith popular. In contrast to many of his other works, this is just a sitcom. The actor appears as a poor streetwise teenager from Philadelphia whose mother sends him to live with his wealthy aunt and her family in Bel-Air, Los Angeles.
The first episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was broadcast by NBC on September 10, 1990. The opening song was among the show’s highlights.
What is Fresh Prince?
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, also known as simply The Fresh Prince, is a sitcom starring Will Smith, which was among NBC’s top hits. It aired from 1990 to 1996 and had 148 episodes.
The casual style of the Fresh Prince logo sets the tone for the humorous TV series. There is something similar to street art in it. At least, you don’t have to make an effort to imagine this picture drawn on a wall.
The words “Fresh Prince” are bold and big, while the words “The” and “of Bel-Air” are smaller and lighter. They are almost lost on the colorful background.
The Fresh Prince logo wasn’t based on a ready-made typeface—it was drawn by hand. Both the style of the letters and their color are the embodiment of Will’s background: unpretentious, simple, and fun.
