Concept Statement
Sitting alone, I reach. Someone takes my hand, I turn to find not just one person but many: A chain of people, connected. Together we move forward to the outreached hands of others.

Hi Erin!
ReplyDeleteI really like the colors that are created by crossing colors in the middle left side of the map one. The side stripes give the project a really calming, fun feel.
I think that my favorite logo is the LM, where the L is in the circle, and the M is simple.
I'd be interested to see what the angle of the M would create for more advertising materials. What words are you pulling from to create these images? I'd say that, although the L circle one with the M is my favorite, I also like the city one. I'd be apprehensive to keep the globe green because it's beginning to look like a tennis ball.
It looks good, Erin! The one on top, where the M from Motion is large and expressive, I don't think gives the idea of "young". It kind of looks like the M from Pure Michigan, which might remind kids of family vacations, lol. I'd look more at typefaces that might look clean and bold, like the L and the M from the second batch!

ReplyDeleteHi Erin:
ReplyDeleteI think the color palette, I think it is strongly suggestive of what you wanna us to feel about your initiative. Especially the first one, it is nice to fit in your target audiences-the kids. I think it is vivid to provoke the excitement.
I think the first logo is more interested, I prefer the towels/building one but I think the globe is somehow extra. So as the ribbon, I think you can break the shape of the circle and incorporate the map into that area if you want to, you can also incorporate the type into that area, cause I think the one you did in the first pic bottom left is a little strange, works more with the position, and I hope you can find a better solution.
I also feel bold color should appear in your identity to suggest strong feelings of together, community, fun, happy,etc. and irregular shapes can help you find that to break the forms a little bit, add more enthusiasm within your components.
I hope this would help you a little bit.
Have a fun spring break!
