creative brief for stationary Brand new ballroom and latin dance website needs artsy and unique stationary for chic, upscale clientele. Items needed: business cards, fax cover sheet, letterhead, envelopes, presentation folders, cd cases, cd labels, email signature, the works! Two designs for business cards: Card design needs to be very artistic and chic. Two-sided design for both cards. The FRONT on both of the cards will probably be the same. FRONT DESIGN: The card FRONT will either be black, or a dark gray and black mottled pattern (something non-descript, no wood floor designs). The logo will be in full color, spot uv, starting from the left side of the card and spreading to the right (the logo has a horizontal design). There may be a soft glow under the logo to break it from the background. or maybe not Maybe the upper right corner and lower left corner are rounded, with the upper left corner and lower right corner are left squared. Or maybe just the upper right hand corner is rounded. may include tag line “We’ll Lead; You Follow”. or maybe not BACK DESIGN FOR CARD 1: The card BACK will either be black, or a dark gray and black mottled pattern (something non-descript, no wood floor designs). The name on the card, and the title (example - Alex, (no last name), President) will both be in silver or gold foil. The other contact information (website, phone number, etc) will be in black, with spot uv. SEE ATTACHED CARD SAMPLES CONTACT INFORMATION FOR BUSINESS CARD 1 (Contact information needs to be in an editable PSD Layer so that it can be changed later as necessary): Alex President alex@dancesportexperts.com 1-855-EZ COACH DanceSportExperts.com facebook.com/dancesportexperts twitter.com/DanceSportTweet No Mailing Address I like the idea of having very small icons in front of address, website, fb, and so on BACK DESIGN FOR CARD 2: The card BACK will either be black, or a dark gray and black mottled pattern (something non-descript, no wood floor designs) or could be a COLOR to compliment logo on front. The font can match the colors in the logo on the front, or designers choice. These cards are reminders for new customers when they create a new online account. There will be two fields that will be left blank and filled in on-site: Login: Password: These fields should have a light background and be large enough, so they can be easily written on. Other contact information for the company needs to fit around these two fields. Maybe contact information is at angles, or curving around the edges of the card. contact same as card 1 SEE ATTACHED CARD SAMPLES CONTACT INFORMATION FOR LETTERHEAD, ENVELOPES, FAX, ETC: DanceSportExperts.com 2138 Old Shepherdsville Road Louisville, Kentucky 40218 1-855-EZ COACH I like the idea of having very small icons in front of address, website, fb, and so on The color scene of the whole thing is black, dark, yellow, gold, silver. The picture from the website gives you an idea. The rest of the stationary -- creative, not boring, artistic, classy, chic, the fancier the better.

    Thank you everybody for wonderful designs. As time is coming closer to the deadline and we have a few 4-5 star favorites, I guess we need to move towards the complete package. Please check the brief. As you can see "items needed: business cards, fax cover sheet, letterhead, envelopes, presentation folders, cd cases, cd labels, email signature, the works!" Thank you, and we are looking forward to see the total project.

    Hi everybody. There are quite a few nice designs, but all of these designs are very traditional. Meaning contact information written in 4 one under another lines, the same or similar font, left to right, stuff you see on every card. There is example cards. Please look, first and second from the top. Big small font, maybe upside down, maybe diagonal, like alex graph fusion card -- example in the middle. Custom die cut welcome. abstract backgrounds welcome. extraordinary welcome. Taste of Ink website, Designline Graphics Inc website, have good examples, more abstract. not boring, please.

    Hello everyone, and thank you again for great designs. A couple of reminders: 1. we do not want street address on the business cards. 2. we do need two different cards. The front can be the same on both, but the back of the second needs to include fields for "login" and "password". 3. we are planning to give another couple of days to choose our favorite business card designs, and then we do need to proceed with the other stationary as in the brief. As we like many, I'm sure there are options you can invent. We really want more nontraditional layout, artsy. Check the examples again, please. We want the customers to pass these cards to each other since they've never seen anything like this. thank you.

    Thank you very much for the designs. There are a few things that we like so far: We like a unique and unusual approach. We DO NOT want a card that looks like any other traditional card. We want the customer to say "wow, look at that card". So we like #53, #19, #20 for the idea of using part of the logo on the side with deep 3D look, which can be used for spot uv highlighting. Also, unique diagonal curved corners. We also like #18, for trying spot uv text of website in the background. We like when many of the designs trying to put a lighting spot sort of gradient on the cards, but maybe you can try to put the soft spot on the background, and let the logo or text stay on the top of it and create a little 3D or shadow look. But unfortunately, we are not seeing yet really unusual drafts when the contact information may be different sizes of font, angles, maybe even styles. We would really really like to see the contact information in black spot uv as on the first two cards on the example that we uploaded. The name and title can still be in white or foil. Please check out the example. Be creative, surprise us! Thank you again.
