The Original Man CampLogo Design Contest

Let me know if any more description/direction is useful!

-Dan

I tend to write in lists:

General Comments:
1. Like the Jack Daniels type of look of #3
2. Like the "paint splatter effect" of #3 as long as it doesn't get too frilly.
3. Don't like the way the shading is done in #3 within the letters although I do like the idea of trying to make it look worn out.
4. Like the western aura of #2.
5. Don't like the frilly lines on #2.
6. Like the simplicity of #1.
7. Don't like the symbol of #1.
8. Like the Jack Daniels type of look of #4.
9. Don't like the frilly decorations of #4.


For future entries:
1. Would like to see a couple versions that aren't black and white.
2. Would like to see a couple versions that don't include the name.

Also, probably don't need the slogan in the logo.

Thanks!

Thanks for the entries:

Like
1. Like the dog tag motif of #5.
2. Like the paint splatter effect of #7, #8, and #3.
3. Like the mountain imagery of #10.

Want to see
1. More imagrey and symbolic entries (like the mountain).

Don't need
1. Slogan in the logo

Thanks!

1. I like the mountain as the letter "A" in #18 and #19. It seems to fit more naturally in #19.
2. I like the style of the chain better in #15. but prefer the shape of the dog tag in #5. I also think I like seeing only part of the chain.
3. I like the text font of #15 and #5 better than #14.
4. I really like the fire and saloon imagery of #12 and #13, but would like it to be grittier and more old fashioned.

Right now it's pretty much a tie between #5, #7, and #19.

Thanks for all the entries!

Thanks everyone. These are looking really cool.

I will submit more specific comments in a couple hours, but I'd love to see more entries with campfire or lake imagery if anyone is game.

-Dan

New comments:

For #26, #27, and #28 I like the text and look of all three. I don't really like the stars on the dog tag. Could you try versions both without the dog tag and with a tag without stars?

Thanks!

Although I think #29 and #32 look cool, it's not really the look I'm going for so don't worry about this route. A little bit too new age. Thanks!

I really like #30 and #31, but could you take the slogan out of the bottom and make the border of #31 more solid like it is in #30?

If you could also make the blue more explicitly a lake or shoreline in #30 that would be great.

Thanks!

#34 is my favorite of the loganrott designs.

I'd love to see the same style with the bear and the tent, but with a lake in the background instead of a mountain.

Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words Hughes Design.

I like the textual format of both the entries. For some reason the fire doesn't quite work for me. Is there a way to make it grittier? More in the "messy" style of the writing?

Thanks!

A couple more gun entries would be great like #42.

Thanks!

I like the canvas type background on #47.

For #48 I realized it looks like the M and the P aren't aligned in "camp." Is that fixable?

Thanks for all the entries everyone. I'm about to hop on a plane and won't have time to review the entries again before the deadline so I'm going to extend the contest. I'm going to extend it a week, but hope to end it much before then.

-Dan

Thanks for all the entries. If someone is up for it, I'd still love to see

1. Lake images.
2. Pictures without the name.

Thanks!

-Dan

I'd love to see a couple entries with the 1950s / old fashioned text look.

Right now I'm leaning toward #67, #51, or #34. For #67, can you please try versions wtithout the swirly lines and with the fonts or Original and Man Camp the same (try using each of the fonts currently used).

I hope to make a final call in the next 24 hours.

Thanks!

-Dan

WHERE DO I SIGN UP!!!

Thanks for all the great entries everyone. I really appreciate it. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to be as active the second week because of some personal commitments, but this has been a great experience for me.

I won't have time to comment again before the deadline so wanted to say thank you.

If you are interested in learning more about the final product, email me at clevercamps@gmail.com and I'll let you know when the camp is fully operational.

Best,
Dan
