chestnutz Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 what's the LSU thing? erikas | go birds | dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SG30 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 This logo but with PDC instead of LSU and different colors if we deem it necessary. I like the idea of incorporating sports into our design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chestnutz Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 While I agree incorporating sports into our deisng would be good, I'm afraid if we just did a plain interlocking PDC it'd look too much like a college athletics logo, and not a design firm for sports. erikas | go birds | dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-(dp)- Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Well, I got another idea, and put together something to show the idea. The actual logo part, I did pretty fast, so it is not great. It is the side view of a kid, looking slightly up towards the sky. He has a determined look (or at least that is how I want him to look, not sure if it does now) and a pencil in the ear, to show that he is an artist. The face doesn't look like a persons yet, because I did it quick. There isn't a lot of detail in the face, to make it more mysterious looking, since we aren't necessarily too well known. Plus, I didn't want to make it specifically a boy, so I didn't put as much detail. I also worked on a possible wordmark. I started with a futuristic font, but there were some things didn't like about it. I modified it quite a bit, but there aren't a lot of huge differences. The bottom is the original font, middle and top are with the modifications. I am not completely sure about the colors, but I think that is probably another thing we should vote on. I had one with a light and dark gray, and orange, that I liked also. Anyways, let me know what you guys think, and keep throwing your ideas out here too. I think we are right where we want to be right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh_cat_eyes Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 So I take it our name is Prodigy Desgin Collective? I am really up for that! Great name! That logo ^ looks cool except I don't really know what that kid is when I first look at it. You should make it more distinguishable that thats what it is. I would add more detail to make it look at least like a person but I like your choice of not choosing a gender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fkaKrock5cent Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I like where this is headed DP. All I think should be changed is the face to look a bit more like...a face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-(dp)- Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Yeah, like I said, this was just for the rough idea. I planned on making it look more like a face.What do you guys think about the color scheme? I used red, because we were just the Red Team, but I don't think we necessarily have to use red. What would you guys suggest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fkaKrock5cent Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 i think red works great with gray so I'm diggin it so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maz Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Id hate to be the one to completely shoot down an idea, but I dont like the logo so much, I dont like the idea of using an actual human kid for some reason. The color scheme seems too, I dunno, dark? And the wordmark seems too futuristic-video-game-company like.Im thinking we should go back to the idea of maybe something with a flame, and use a simpler font for the wordmark. I'll contribute my own idea when my computer stops acting up with display problems.

If done correctly I think a single flame or torch of some kind would look quite professional.

-(dp)- Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Ouch. Not even a single thing you like about it? That is okay. As far as using flames, I think they are used way too much. I don't really think there is anything we could do with flames, that hasn't been done before. Go ahead and try something with it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chestnutz Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Sorry devin, can't say I really like it. I don't know what it is, it just doesn't look like a very good logo for a professional company.An idea I had was using the theory of evolution picture (caveman evolving into human) only have a baby crawling go into a designer or something. erikas | go birds | dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-(dp)- Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Using a torch in our identity somehow, is definitely worth a try. I might try something with that. Also, is the last one I tried even worth messing with anymore, or just forget about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SG30 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I did this in about 5 minutes in paint, but it gets across the idea for a logo...a simple torch but with a PDC in the flame. I tried to make the PDC look like it was natural, but I don't think I did that too well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-(dp)- Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Okay, another try.....This time I used the torch idea, but what I came up with isn't too great, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
