This is a great logo for perhaps a product but not for a food fest. We think you have a good idea here but just not for what we are trying to do with this event. This applies to all variations of the logo. Please give us some more options that are more whimsical and fun.
#1,2,5--We like these designs. We are not looking for a slogan so you can delete it. Probably lean toward Food and Fest being separated. Not sure we like the little man. Perhaps try some versions with just hte worns and not the man and icon. Thanks a bunch!
We like this idea just would like to see it without the slogan and without the man and icon currently on the left. Also perhaps you could try changing the "Food" font to all caps vs. all lowercase. We want to make sure that it does not look too much like any of the examples we provided in the design brief. Thanks!
