I like the one with people. I would like the BOLD to stand out more and perhaps have the red / orange be on the word BOLD. I also like the 2nd one you presented though I am not sure about the little knobs that come out...what do you see them representing? If I various divisions I might be able to use that....not sure.
Got it...how can you make them look more like people? Like a roundtable concept? There is a person I really like on this logo: http://www.theexecutivehappinesscoach.com/ I like the way they did the person...like he is happy (sunshine) and outstreched arms. Not sure what you can do with that...
I am not sure if you can see feedback from other designers...if not, here is one I like the concept of reaching for the stars...we are a top producing team always reaching for more....http://www.calfarleysboysranchalumni.org/AllStarLevels.aspx
I am going to have to push this one down as I am simply not happy with the people....if you read the other comments I left and can give it a tweak I think it would help your ratings.
I won't rank you in the top 5 without the changes as right now there are others that I like better...I LOVE your design except it looks like a jigsaw puzzle to me...the people are not right...otherwise yours would be my top pick. I hope you can get to it before them...there is no guarantee it will be in the top 5 without me seeing the changes first. Thanks for your understanding
I understand. FYI - The top 5 can be rotated in and out. You can allow me some time and if you still dont like it you can remove mine and allow another to be placed in the top 5.
Could you provide a little more direction? I see the top ranked designer has basically used MY idea of the negative spaced house with one less person. I would love to help you further, but am unsure which direction to go.
One idea that I have is to have two people reaching skyward. With their hands meeting at the crown of a roofline with a star at that point as well. Unfortunately I am out of the studio until later this evening and can not work on it until then.
If you want to leave it in the top 5 for now, I'll create the new design tonight, and if you don't like that direction, simply place my entries in the "We prefer other designs" bin and that will allow someone else to enter the top 5 by default and give them a chance.
#15 I like the different colors. I like the house in the middle...I am looking at other photos online to support you with the design. The stars could be different colors...I like stars somewhere on the design and I like them various sizes / colors....see the stars on this logo http://www.prlog.org/11649765-lady-filmmakers-moves-to-beverly-hills.html I also like skinny people like the one in this logo...go to this page and scroll to the bottom and you will see the guy with the stars around him....
Michelle I am going to gracefully bow out, as your contest has simply become a bunch of generic copycat designs. which is absolute violation of our rules here.
This is not a reflection of you but rather some designers who like to copy others work late in the contest. I wish you the best of luck.
Okay...#84 is one of my favorites it needs some tune up though...the feedback I got from friends was the leg crossing over the others doesn't look right AND the outline of the house is not defined...can you make the people smaller and outline the house? #17 the colors are not quite right...also, we have a lot of women on our team and these all look like men and the message I get is they are ridged and not fun....#84 is more fun and flowing. The colors I need are a dark blue and orange...and the more I think about it if we stick with 2 colors it is less costly to print on things so I am going with a dark blue, white and Orange or Gold...hope this helps....glad you are back in the game.
Thanks for the feedback. one thing to consider is that with modern print technology the cost of one color is often no less then 5 colors. However the fewer colors does tend to modernize the logo and make it less distracting. in other words multiple colors can distract from the common theme. I will work on some changes and upload them soon.
#157 | #158 - I feel these are less cluttered and bolder. From a distance on a sign the main element will be clear and distinctively yours. It tells your story of leadership and a house.
I like #157....now to get the colors perfect...I want a dark blue..nearly black....if you can make the realty group that color...the star that color or gold on the star would be good too and the BOLD more gold to orange instead of orange to red....my broker colors are gold and black and my colors are blue, white and gold / orange the orange is simply an accent color so I don't want to use it too much. Also if you can make the star fatter...more cartoony. Thank you....I am glad you got back in the game.
My husband LOVES #17...I like it okay except most of our team is women...this looks like all men AND I don't like the colors. If you would go with a darker blue and gold / orange I think I would like it better...it seems too stiff for me...
Feedback I am getting on #159 is it only shows the one person...is it possible to show the blue person behind the gold one...maybe almost like a shadow?
The ones my husband really likes with the people....if you go to google images and type in silhouette people...you will see many different types of people...or type in business people...I think this would meet both of our expectations...to have it look like real people instead of block people...or bowling pins. You are doing a great job...thank you. Michelle
#175 | #176 - Changes as requested. I added the second person. I REALLY like the clean boldness of the one in the blue box. That would be great on signs, vehicles and the web.
A note about the link to the stock art business people. That is a photograph that has been simplified down to clip art. It is avail;able for purchase but can not be used here. Unfortunately NONE of those types of images can be used here as they are copyright protected and must be purchased from the site that you found them.
They are actual photos and are generally not very manageable to logo design, as they tend to just look like clip art. To actually draw that type pf detail is extremely time consuming (and generally expensive)
My professional recommendation would be to keep your logo simple without much detail. Detail is often the death of a logo. It is generally lost unless you are very close to it. Simple and bold stand out from a distance.
Think Apple and Nike....The two most recognized logos in the world have almost NO detail at all. In fact if you think of the most famous logos in any field they are almost never detailed to any degree.
Just some professional thoughts that I like to share with any client rather they be in house here locally or through my work on the web.
Please don't hesitate to let me know if I can help you further.
I will be out of the office most of the day tomorrow, but will check in via mobile throughout the day.
....By the way, did you ever here back from support about the rankings?
I like the one in the blue box too...the thing is I am a team and I have a broker so I have to use their colors on their signs so the cleaner I keep it the better... I really like the second person added. I have not been able to rank...I contacted customer service 2 times and customer support many times...to no avail..which sort of is crummy as it is almost over and I have no way to rank them. Michelle
I don't charge extra for variations of the same design...so if you pick the simple one for your brokers, I can send you the one with the blue box for yourself.
