Logo Design Brief

Client

What We Do
This is a logo for my personal brand; I am a television host, on-air legal analyst, keynote speaker and author (see www.DarrenKavinoky.com).

Entertainment
Color Preferences
Open to a variety of color, but this must be able to effectively translate into black/white/grey and not rely on color.
Our Ideas & Additional Information
My personal website: www.DarrenKavinoky.com

Look at the Drew Carey television show logo, that features a black and white outline of Drew, which is predominantly a black and white outline of Drew, his glasses and crew-cut, with a colorful tie. I would like something similar, that would play off of the following elements:

1) My almost bald head (it is slightly scruffy);
2) My glasses as a strong element
3) A suit and tie (or suit jacket and open collar shirt, no tie)
4) A pocket square (this is an opportunity for a pop of color)

I would strongly recommend that you look at the TWO video reels at www.DarrenKavinoky.com to get a sense of my usual "look" and my sarcastic style.

NOTE: I now wear "heavier frame" glasses than featured in those reels. See the pics I'm going to attach.

Also NOTE: I've attached a "manslaughter logo" below that is a different style, a 1950s "cartoon" logo style, and I'd be open to seeing this too.

I'm looking for something that's a little more "superhero" version of me... I have one from a caricature artist I can post...

I imagine something more "stylized"... I want to include bald head, strong/bold eyeglasses, a pocket square. Other than that, it does not necessarily need to look like me.

Please take a look at ALL the images that are uploaded, including the caricature drawing.

Also, the image is the vital component... My name is not the focus.

1. We can make the name smaller or eliminate it entirely. The image will be the signature.

2. Slim me down a little bit, please. I'm not an NFL fullback, and one of the things I speak about is fitness and weight loss... Apparently that's not translating well in some of my photos, but I'm really not that heavy...

3. Can we add some color to the glasses? They are tortoiseshell, bonus points if we can make that show up. I can send you pics of the actual glasses if it helps. I don't know if we have enough space to create this, so if this is unreasonable artistically, let me know.

4. You can also add a pop of color through the necktie, or use other colors or patterns in the pocketsquare. (Paisley, polkadots, or plaid are all great!) NOTE: the pocketsquare and tie should NOT match exactly... these compliment each other, but should not be the identical pattern.

I just uploaded a closeup pic of the tortoiseshell glasses.

They are made by Matsuda if you want to find them online.
