Creative Brief


Logo for fantasy sports company

Double Up Sports

The Future of Fantasy Sports

Yes

Double Up Sports differentiates itself from the competition by being the most friendly website for fantasy sports players, but it is important for the logo to not appear feminine, as the company's target market is male sports fans. The logo should look modern and professional, as customers will need to trust that the money they deposit into our website will be safe. Many of the company's customers are also sports bettors or casino gamblers. The logo should stand out and look sharp, whether it's placed on a website or a t-shirt.

I think the principal color of the logo would also be the color of my web page background. As such, I think it would be best if the principal color of the logo is either a darker shade of green or blue.

not sure

One idea I had was to incorporate into the logo two arrows pointing upwards. I'm completely open to any new ideas though.

    #26, #27, #28, #29 and #30 Thanks for your designs. I think I'm looking for a tighter logo but I appreciate your creative take on this.

    #18 Very nice work here. I love how you were able to combine the two arrows with the word UP in a simple yet creative way. Very thoughtful. Only concern with the icon is that it looks a little too much like the word "JP" and not enough like "UP". Not sure if there is any way around that. Also, can you try combining with the font you used in #10?

    #21 and #22 Nice work here. I definitely like how you develop clean, simple yet striking designs. I think I prefer your previous designs (#3, #4 and #17) better though.

    #14 Interesting choice of icon design and font type. Not sure if it's intentional, but I also like how the icon forms a "2". Only thing is that I want to keep the arrows both pointing up (to remain consistent with the brand name). Can we try sticking the company name next to the icon instead of underneath?

    #12 Interesting take. Can we try without gradients, and using a more narrow and masculine font?

    For the sake of easier printing on t-shirts and baseball caps, can we avoid gradients and please stick to solid colors?

    #7 #9 and #10 Nice work. Both icon and graphic are close to the mark in these. I like the icon in #7 the best. However, I like the fonts in #10 better. Can you combine? Also, can you please prepare a draft in red as well?

    #5 and #6 Both are quite good, but I like your second design better. I also like your creativity around using two shades of green. However, the icon looks too much like "BU" instead of "DU". Suggestions: Can you change the lettering in the icon such that the first letter looks more like a "D"? Please also try setting the icon letters in lower case if that helps.

    #3 #4 and #17 I like these logos quite a bit. Great work capturing what I had in mind not only with the icon but the fonts as well. Suggestions: Can you please prepare a draft using red? Also, I would like to avoid using gradients. Can you please prepare drafts using only solid colors?

    Hey guys, thanks a lot for your initial designs. Looks great so far. Can I also request drafts in red (as well as blue and green)? I know that using red as the principal color on a website might be too bold, but perhaps if I only use red on the logo, it might be the most eye-catching.

    Another suggested idea for the logo symbol: A square with rounded corners. Inside the square are two blocky arrows pointing up (either straight up or diagonally to the right).

    Here's a design I've seen elsewhere I really like: http://orders.logodesignguru.com/drafts/display/contest/387981/draft/2408774 In this case, I really like the upper case letters too. So I guess I'm not too attached to lower case after all.

    I think I want "Double Up Sports" to either be in all lower case, or only the first letter of each word to be capitalized.

    Attention Designers!! MycroBurst permits you to submit unlimited designs with unlimited variations. However, if you are providing 2 or 3 different color versions of the same logo in one draft, please make sure that if the particular draft gets finalized, each color version should be separated before you will send the final files. Thanks, MB/LDG/LS Team

    #1 Thanks for your design. I'm looking for something more friendly and modern looking though.
