Contest $50 Logo Design Contest for DJ - 48 hrs

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by WEBSCAPE, Oct 13, 2021.

  1. #1
    Hello,
    This logo contest is for a legendary and acclaimed deejay (disc jockey). He usually plays House, Funk, Jazz, nuDisco, and Retro. He performs on live gigs and on Twitch. You can see him HERE

    1. Please create TWO separate versions using the following:
    • MM
    • Mon Maramba
    2. For the final product, please create a layered file so that a flat version of both OR a version with the effects you created can be selected.

    Thank you for your interest!

    Thank you @coolwanz ! I have submitted your design for review by the client. For this and other entries, I will try my best to provide feeback. Thanks for your patience!

    ETA:
    @coolwanz, here is feedback from the client:

    Regarding the MM logo: "It appears a little fragile; it should characterize stability, strong presence and solidly established. But I really like it!"

    Could I please ask that the stroke is made a little thicker?
    May I please ask for any effect of your choosing (for example: metal on leather) just to see how it looks when it's not flat? Thank you!

    •••IMPORTANT UPDATE•••

    I cannot edit the original post therefore this post will be the one to guide you from this point forward.


    Based on client feedback, please now create only one logo with MM and the name Mon Maramba either to the right or underneath. The client still likes @coolwanz 's first MM design but it just needs to be stronger and also presented with a stylized version besides the flat version.

    To summarize, please submit a logo with:
    1. Creative use of MM and the name Mon Maramba to the right or underneath. On the final file, the name can be displayed or hidden.
    2. A flat version and a stylized version

    Thank you so much and looking forward to more entries or revised entries!

    @getdomain4u , thanks for your entry! This is the client's feedback:

    "I love the hexagon element. My dev portfolio online is made of hex components. The color combination is great. Can do without the headphones I think. Iffy about the font but I like how the name is bold and just grabs the attention even for its simplicity."

    @getdomain4u, would you consider showing us a version with no headphones and a font that's not Arlon Bold? Something not curvy to go with the hexagon. Thanks so much!

    The client loved these revisions, especially 1b! He says it feels like it's been there forever like a trusted brand. He is not sure how it can be associated with his being a DJ - and something is missing. I suggest add a spectrum analyzer somewhere or a tone arm? Another option is to make the leather background a vinyl record? Could you also please add his name Mon Maramba to your submission? Thank you so much for your patience!

    Thank you, @logos4all ! It follows the other element that the client like, the hexagon - plus a strong font! The client says the X part of the design might be hard for those new to the logo to associate it with MM. But the colors are bold and aggressive, a really nice part of your design! Thank you!

    @vicky786: The client likes the color combination and the spectrum analyzer treatment on the MMs!
    P.S. He is impressed with the grey-on-white mockup...lol but I told him to focus on the logo :)
