Hi Shibby, thanks for your entries. I will be reviewing everything with Dr Nesbitt this evening and will rank based on his feedback. Most likely I will extend the open phase of the contest for a short time. At this stage, I will say that we are looking for "happy" children. The expressions on yours are a little too aggressive for the mood we want to convey to parents. One of the reasons we held this contest, in fact, is because Dr Nesbitt's original logo had children who were kind of vacant-eyed and scary. I hope this feedback will help you if you have time to revise your designs. Number 8 is closer to the color palette we envisioned and also is easier to read--my personal feedback, not the doctor's reaction. Kind regards, Lisa for Dr. Sid
Hi Shibby, Hope you are well. Do you have any modified designs for us to look at? Yours are quite different, and I don't have 5 top designers yet. Is there anything more you need to know from me, since I was able to extend the open phase by a day? Lisa
My apologies I completed ete the kids with the body but I guess is too late now, my apologies. If I can do of further help, please do not hesitate to message me.
Hi Shibby, you appear to be the fifth in our top five, although I did not get much from you and the other designers ranked below you. If you have time to work on your design using the specific pointers I have given you and also posted generally, then karibu (welcome). We would love to see what you have to offer. Sid still has not seen any of the designs, I will probably have to extend the Top 5 phase of the contest, so I think you have time. Lisa
I uploaded more variations of the entry ranked in #5. Please let me know what do you think and if I can do anything else for you, just let me know ... I will be around!
Thanks, Shibby, for working on your designs for us. A big step forward. The faces still seem a little "blank" to me--a little more personality, perhaps, though beware of the manic child look: Big open-mouthed grin, staring straight ahead. Too much of this is off-putting. What if the children were relating to each other somehow? Also, the "Asian" girl looks more Chinese than Indian when, in fact, we have many people of Indian descent here. Perhaps this could be modified somewhat. I am also a bit wary of too much emphasis on European children. Although expatriate families make up a good portion of the clinic's clientele, they normally move to another posting after a few years and don't stick with the clinic from birth through adolescence. They are also often away from the country for significant portions of the year, which means fewer visits to the clinic. The Dr. would like to attract more locals, meaning African- Asian-Arab clients who are long-term residents or citizens of Kenya. Perhaps one of the European children could be replaced with one on the brown or tan scale, colorwise?
