Dr David DuganLogo Design Contest

In addition to the above the logo should also appeal to : coaches, consultants and entreprenuers. I am also happy to see what it looks like having my name "Dr David Dugan" somewhere around or in the logo.

For the colour scheme use the colours similar to www.tonyrobbins.com and www.keypersonofinfluence.com.au.
I like the simplicity of #7, #8 and #14. It has a feel of classical, clear and strong.
A few logos had a star in them and I am not sure I am sold on this but I would like to see if it would look good in future logos.
In #4 the overall layout is different and I kinda like and not sure I like it but would like to progress nontheless. The logo in the middle with the man with a tie I don't like. I want something that looks even more upmarket i.e. it should look like and expensive product just looking at the logo.
In #14 I don't know what the circle with the swish is meant to mean or the Dr in small writing. If there was to be an emblem (which I am more than happy to look at) I want something that has meaning e.g. that reflects empowerment, being your best, entrepreneurism, certainty. This could be an emblem of something that exists is nature or the world right now (like the apple logo of Apple Inc - but clearly not an apple) or something that is made up.
The end result may be two 'logo's' - one that has my full name in it and one that has just a logo with out the name.

p.s. I like simplicty and clarity

General colours. Use the darker blue and Titanium/Grey colour with a splash of red/maroon. I like the simplicity and it should be able to stand the test of time and still look great.

Remember to also have it so it looks expenseive and a bit timeless/classical. I want it to look important and with prestige. I am happy for you to expereiment with leaving out words and even (for now) leaving out my name all together.

I am happy for someone to create a symbol without words (or very few) next to them. I do like the stars and hearts look. Either both or possibly one at a time.

Sorry Guys have been interstate and just coming home now. Will give full debrief in a couple of hours

As far as the fonts go could you give a go to see what "Myriad Pro Semi Bold" and "Helvetica 'Neue' typo corrected" looks like please.

Would it be possible to try something even simpler and just use a small 'star' near my name e.g. in the top dot in the letter "i" . Now is does not need to be at this place and it could also be at the end of my name or anywhere else.

I was not entirely sure what the logo should look like when I started out. I am thinking I will end up having 2 "logos". One that is very simple that has my name and the other that has my name AND a picture/log with it. Feel free to experiment with this.

Also apologies for not being online for past 24 hours. Will be offline again for about 7 hours before checking again.

Really going to bed now. Be checking again in 7 hours. Thanks for your input with the work that you have been doing. I appreciate you efforts.

I woke up with an idea.

Could you have a go at making the "V" in David more like a tick and the dot on the "i" like a star. Being next to each other this may actually have them close to joining up (Now it does not need to join.

Make the star the Titanium/silvery/ grey colour and the tick the red colour. Also see if you can have it looking more 3D in the image.

FYI Here is an example of the 3D way apple do their logos in 3D

Logo Designers. I have to go out for the next 2 hours and will come back and move this to the next stage of the contest. thanks for everyone who has being doing all the designs. You really have been producing some quality logos.

IF you go to this link and scroll down to the picture of the "iPhone 4S" words that is printed in Myriad. This is the best example of how to do the 3D image. I think the Dr and Da will have the same amount of 3D shading like the picture here. Rather than it being the same 3D 'shading' through out the letters.

Thanks for the logo's designers. I had a day off with Christmas yesterday. WIll re-rank and give updates/messages shortly.

Thanks for your patience
