Hip Hop EvolutionLogo Design Contest

Hey All,

Lets try staying away from breakdancing and graffiti

Hey All,

Were excited for an amazing contest! We are really looking for a CLEAN MC, RAPPER, MUSICAL feel, as opposed to breakdancing. Doing great so far!

Hey all,

OK, so here is what we are going for. I want everyone to work with the following elements: An Urban Skyline and a mircophone. It would be appropriate to throw in some turn tables if it fits your design. If I can paint this picture, we are trying to depict the imagery that the artist and the MC have evolved from the mainstream ubran downtown culture. For the logos that have been done already, lets get rid of all the stars and crowns and try to work with microphones, an urban skyline, and turn tables. Keep up the great work!!

Any samples music from the MCs that are on the show?

Hey all,

Ok, its anyones gig, we are taking it in a new direction to see what you can all create with the following description. I look forward to seeing the results. I am looking for a silhouette, going back to the charlie angels type theme, the mob squad type theme, and the following characters: a strong african male (not muscles but just character type), a generic female, a white rocker guy. They are all going to be holding a mic, posing, a reference for this pose could be the classic RunDMC poses. We do not want any circle or badge-like logos. And again, no graffiti, and there still needs to be an evolution theme - a start to finish aspect if you will. Doing great so far!

Client has requested an extra extension.

Hey Everyone,

I know that the design instruction has really taken a turn in this competition, but we greatly appreciate your patience and persistence. What we are looking for is the silhouette look. We have an african male with an afro, a white rocker ( kind of an Aerosmith look) and a woman with long hair ( could represent many races). Its important that the are holding microphones and that is looks very realistic as to how MC's hold their microphones.

Admin Note: CH is dependent on the powers that be. He is confident that a winner will be chosen within this extra extension. He has been very communicative. Thanks for your patience.

Hello,

This is what we need. Here are a couple of web link images for what we are going for:

Make the black guy with the afro on the right, have his arms folded.

Put a multi cultural male in the middle with the hat like the link on.

put a multi culture woman with longer hair on the left.

We would like these three people to be in a silhouette

We want the person on the left to be facing sideway, the person in the middle to be facing towards the front, and the person on the right to be at a forty five degree angle.

make the girl have some headphones on..she can be clinching the headphones with her hands, like she his rocking out, have the black man with the afro on the right with his arms crossed, have the person in the middle posing with his hands flared like the picture entitled " run dmc greatest hits" Try another one with the middle person posing with a microphone. Really give this graphic some soul!

Do you guys prefer the three characters to be more cartoonish or realistic?
