deezy Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I don't know why I started doing this logo (boredom?) but anyways I thought that I'd share it with all of you and get some critique on it... I think it's kind of a cool idea for an All Star logo, or maybe something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bohob Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Too jagged, too campy, and it doesn't feature any of Miami's colors. It looks kind of like it came from the Mesozoic era. I think you should clean it up, use some variation of the Heat's color, and find a typeface that better suits Miami's style. Also, the exclamation point should be there. The logo doesn't have to shout at everyone.

Throwback Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Change the prespective and maybe dot the i with a sun or something and it's a great logo concept. ~?~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The logo doesn't have to shout at everyone.Well, it is for Miami, but not necessarily for the Heat... there is some precedence for NBA All-Star logos to follow after the host team, but for the most part, they should address the host city.My issue with it is that it literally doesn't say Miami, which may be important for others who wonder "Who's Mia?" or "Who is missing in action?" Maybe as an alternate... I agree that it looks too cramped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgvyhn Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Too much like London's Olympic logo which is horrible.Possibly a 3rd alternate, but I'm not a big fan of it.I appreciate the effort though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whchoclte Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Reads MIA or missing in action to me. No abbreveations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaha32 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I like your outside the box thinking here, but only a few cities (such as Phoenix PHX) can use abbeviations and get away with it. MIA is a name and PHX can not be mistaken for anything other than Phoenix DesignsByHahn.com Behance Dribbble Instragram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaha32 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 even so, i dont think you'd want an all-star logo to have any chance of creating confusion to the avg fan, and that is who the all-star games are marketed towards, not just those in miami that are familiar with the abbreviation. I see it for the score on TV and that's about it. DesignsByHahn.com Behance Dribbble Instragram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinsTerritory Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 As mentioned above, dotting the "I" with a sun would be a cool touch. Miami colors might be nice as well. I think it's good, and I can't wait to see any possible adjustments. Twins-Territory.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deezy Posted January 24, 2009 Author Share Posted January 24, 2009 Yeah, looking at it now a few days removed, it definitely isn't a primary logo, it could be a decent secondary though... I'll see if I can find some time and try to update it... Thanks for all the comments! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devilray2k1 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 it's a great logo it's just that it looks more like it's for a hot new broadway musical or something...looks like it belongs on a playbill or on those little taxi-top advertisementsnice concept though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashcarson15 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 To me it looks like Miami is missing an M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
