Creative Brief


Hipster logo for a photo sharing blog called Superyacht Collective.

SYC

No

We want the logo to represent and convey unity through travel, seafaring and the ocean.
We are a blog on which private yacht crew post photography from their world travels and experiences. A unique insight into a world not many people get to view.
The yachting industry culture is heavily influenced by surf, sailing and kite boarding culture. Our favorite magazine/website is: www.dslmag.com/v6/
The style and culture of the website are right up our alley. We hope designers can draw on some ideas from the site.

    Hi guys, if the words 'Superyacht Collective' are in your design could you please try a diagonal strike through the top left corner to the bottom right corner of the 'O'? Like 'Ø' but a reverse image. Cheers

    AS A GUIDE TO EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR: Check out the logo at the top of the page on http://www.dslmag.com/v6/ ? They're a surf culture magazine website. The logo has got the DSL on one side of the crossed 'arrows' MAG on the other- which balances it out nicely. Then a stylized 'D' at the top to represent 'Desillusion' (their name/brand) and the fin symbol from a surf board at the bottom. Maybe a grunge style. The designs we want can't be too clean, but not too distressed either. If you could pull something off along the lines of this logo we love, you could take it Best of Luck

    Hi guys, Thanks for all the excellent submissions. We'd like to push for one last big flood of designs for the final 24 hours. No more color- we want to stick with black/white/grey tones. No more lion symbols (unless you've got something you've been working on for a while). We now want to stick with the anchor/mermaid or other nautical symbols that you feel would work. No more crossed arrows or oars- we still like the idea of crossed arrows but it needs to be more subtle. Good example is #422 If you go to http://www.dslmag.com/v6/ you'll see the style of logo and page we're going for. Click on the 'INSPIRATION' tab at the top of the page- that's the feel and look we want. Big thanks for all your submissions over the last week or so. It's been a real pleasure to view all your creative work. We have endeavored to be as respectful as possible under the circumstances- a competition for money that involves elimination. We've had a few disappointing private messages from designers over the past few days- angry as their designs have been eliminated. Other than that, it's been a real pleasure to communicate with all of you. Cheers to everyone. We'd love to see the foot down on the gas pedal for these last 24 hours.

    FINAL DRAFT BRIEF See draft #175, draft #354 and draft #388 for examples of the style we need. We now need grunge style lines- less blocky, uniform lines. We can still go modern/cool/simplistic but it needs to have a more relaxed/emotional vibe. We want to keep going with the circular shape. We like the crossed arrows or crossed oar symbols. We like the following symbols: anchor, mermaid, lion. For the lion symbol check out: http://teenormous.com/t-shirts/Dc-Shoes-Chief-Premium-T-Shirt-by-PacSun-1030768 Thanks for your wonderful work.

    Dear Designers, We've just showed your designs to the guys we're working with on our site and made some decisions. We're now going to eliminate/drop the star rating of some of the designs we think are brilliant but won't work for the project... Thank you so much for your work

    Hi guys, Thanks for posting all the great designs and for trying out the swallow symbols. We'd like to move away from the swallow symbols now- they haven't worked out so far. We also love the lion symbolism but we'd like to try moving back in the direction of more nautical symbolism. The mermaid and the anchor symbols work the best for us. The mermaid symbols can be sultry if it looks right. We like the crossed arrows but the regular crossed lines that mimic the compass rose slightly are fantastic too. Also the crossed oars are great. Initially we wanted a straight-laced logo but now we realize we need something a bit more edgy to appeal to our audience of the 18-30 age group. Although we still want a beautiful, tasteful design that embodies what we stand for- detailed in the brief. We're still keen for you to get some inspiration from: yourlogoisnothardcore.tumblr.com/archive Thank you so much for the incredible work- eliminating fast to keep the ball rolling. Best of luck

    Thank you for your submissions and trying out the lion symbol. They're coming along nicely- although the lion is a bit too dominant. The simplistic lion symbols don't work. But we're still liking the idea of the lion. We'd like to see some more mermaid symbolism- but not too raunchy. Alluring but not too sexual. Anchor symbols are still really good and we'd like to see the swallow symbols tried out... Please feel free to continue trying your original simplistic designs as well. Thanks again for your work, SYC

    One important feature- the Lion symbols that are going up need to be facing to the side- as with the example we gave: http://teenormous.com/t-shirts/Dc-Shoes-Chief-Premium-T-Shirt-by-PacSun-1030768 When the lion faces ahead we feel that it would portray us as a bit too aggressive for what we're trying to do.

    Hi guys, Eliminating quickly- your work is very much appreciated. No one has tried the roaring lion symbol yet. (minus the native american headdress): http://teenormous.com/t-shirts/Dc-Shoes-Chief-Premium-T-Shirt-by-PacSun-1030768 We like the crossed arrows or crossed oar symbols. We like the following symbols: anchor, mermaid, swallows, lion. For all other examples please pour over: yourlogoisnothardcore.tumblr.com/archive We would love to see some more experimentation. Thank you for your designs.

    THE WINNING ADVICE. PLEASE TRY THIS: We want a logo with or within a circular shape. We like the crossed arrows or crossed oar symbols. We like the following symbols: anchor, mermaid, swallows, lion. For a good example of the lion symbol check out (minus the native american headdress): http://teenormous.com/t-shirts/Dc-Shoes-Chief-Premium-T-Shirt-by-PacSun-1030768 For all other symbols and examples please pour over: yourlogoisnothardcore.tumblr.com/archive We would love to see some experimentation with the above. Please keep posting more and more. Once again, thank you for all your submissions. It is a real pleasure to view them each day. Unfortunately we have to eliminate the ones we don't think will make the final cut to keep the project moving forward. Cheers and best of luck.

    We're getting a lot of messages about which direction to take: http://yourlogoisnothardcore.tumblr.com/archive Please look over the designs on the tumblr page above. That is the direction we want to take. If your design is good, and conveys what we ask for in the brief, then we will rate it. We are always interested in simplistic, great looking design as well- which is why we've kept on some of the designs that don't necessarily fit the style we're asking for. So whether you can produce a beautiful hipster logo, or an amazing design with a style of your choice, we're very interested in seeing what you can come up with. Thanks again for all your submissions, SYC

    Thank you- your designs are looking fantastic. We are developing our ideas along with your designs. We either want something simplistic and professional just using the letters themselves with minimal additions: i.e. draft #1, 11, 21 are good examples of this. Or the 'hipster' style logo with minimalist style symbols and our initial letters: i.e. draft #36, 47, 61... Thanks again for all your work

    Dear designers, While there have been many good designs, there are only a handful that we would be willing to consider. Please have a look at this website: http://www.dslmag.com/v6/ At the top and bottom of the page there are logos for the magazine. They are the style of logo that we really want- no one has given that a shot yet. Thanks again for your submissions. SYC

    We'd like to steer away from the idea of photography as a central theme for the logo. Thank you for your submissions
