logo+design

= = = = =Logo Design=

Hi all,

First, I just appologies to everybody for not giving news and update about the MADA10 design, But I was very busy traveling around France meeting and dealing with my french teachers. I also show them the final version of the MADA10 logo that I'm sending you now. They liked it, and trust me it is not so easy to make them like something... I want to appologies to Ina because I said I will put the - to the A, which i did, but I couldn't stand it, it not really working...

So the visual identity guidelines are : - the LOGO. Black & white and color- The Color guidelines BLACK (all pure) WHITE, and YELLOW (all pure) and here is how the logo change according to these color guidelines



-The 'Baseline' based on what Rod wrote on the first promo copy I used it because I think it is enought information for a baseline, other information about the UAL can be written separetly on post-card, poster. And I did an exemple of what the poster could be using rod copy (no matter if its good or not I used to show how the layout is working) -and the Typeface is an Akzidenz-Grotesk, it can be used for every part of the print stuff, and I'm not sure about the Web, because it not really websafe type, but I know that today with Typekit we can use any type on the web. Otherwise I need to find another solution



Now, if anyone disagree with this, you have until Friday 4th of June to express yourself clearly After that I will work on the jingle, and start making all the postcards and give the HD logo (and typeface) to those who need it.

Cheers, Jean-Baptiste

Agreed.. i love the music effect and the logo Jean-Baptiste created ^^ I also agree with Ina on the idea of projecting it at the show. Good work everyone xxxx May

Looks great Jean-Baptiste. The jingle could be very good. We could use this as an entrance for the web page. Kevin.

I love the jingle idea, it would be great if we could find away to have it projected at the show, maybe in the staircase, to get people to go upstairs! I really like Jeans design, i kinda wish the A had its - tho, as i keep reading MNDA, but it might look shit, so im ok with reading MNDA... Ina

Hi all! Here's Bill this time! I made a try for a logo, too. Jean is more expert in this but it's just an idea in 3-4 different color backgrounds. Click here to see them in my blog, as I didn't find the way to upload it here :P Feel free to comment them Thanks, Bill @http://www.billpsarras.blogspot.com

Hi all ! I didn't have any feedback so far, so I keep doing what I feel. I start to focus on the outlined logo, tried to make it better, and I start thinking that it could be great to do sort of a teaser - jingle with it. It could be a very good way to promote our show, by posting it on our blogs, our trying to submit it to other visual arts and digital arts blogs, some have a large audience that might be interested by the show. It could also be a way to group our production under a 'label', I mean like if we all have our final videos that we will post online through our own website/blogs, it could be used as an Intro, like Universal pictures :D somehow ! I did a soundtrack for it and a storyboard, take a look, imagine how it could be in motion and most important tell me how you fell about what I do. I think what have to finish that as soon as possible because making cards, catalogue, videos, or whatever it really takes time, and we I should have everything ready, printed, posted about a month before the show. Otherwise it is going to be short to spread the informations in time. There you go

This looks great! media type="custom" key="6068637"



Please give me feedbacks, I guess you can do it on the page, otherwise, send me and email and group for everybody to see it. We can even even do a Google wave dicussion if you prefer... thanks,

This looks great! Gets my vote. Kevin.

Hi Everybody ! It's Jean-Baptiste, for those who don't know I've been studying graphic design, In fact I'm still officially doing my MA graphic design in France in the meanwhile, So I deciced to start designing for you guys, and me as well, and sleep even less !! So, I spent a few hours design a new logo for our show, after researching different styles, shapes, I finally designed this. I designed the types to make this kind of monogramme / type / logo. I decided to make a simple, stable and impacting shape that can easilly be used on other frames like posters, post card, catalogue or whatever... Because our projects are already very visual, I think it's important for the graphic design not to disturb our work identity, but group it using a functional and organized in a hierarchy system I know some of you wish to find an oustanding way to promot ourself, using different things then just standart paper format, and built radical, clear is the best way to be free on the frame choice because its simplicity enable us to decline it on a whole graphic line.

I'm still working on it and I decided to show these versions, regular / full, redesigned to be outlined, thicker outlined one, and just examples of it coud be used in a layout based with a grid system based on the logo width.

Give me your feedbacks !
