Thanks so much for your submissions! We really like the quality of these designs, but are not necessarily what we're looking for. HOWEVER, we really appreciate the work and creativity behind them, and would love to see other ideas that you may have.
We are looking for a logo that is a mix of seriousness with fun, that has character and personality. as well as personality...
A few specific comments on these that may help define that:
-really like that the graphics have a lot of variety effects in them (lighter notes, bolder kids), also like that they have specific and different shapes. However, in these 2 designs, there are too different ideas many. Could we see some designs that include your wonderful ideas, but are a bit more simple? (don't love the kids themselves - although really like the idea of having kids as part of the logo)
-could we try a bolder color palette? (for example the greens and purples seem a bit pale)
-not crazy about the fonts - for example, could the crescendo fonts be a bit more stark/serious, rather than so round?
Please let me know if this helps, and if there's any other specific info would be helpful.
