$40 Logo Contest for an aerial photography and aerial video company that my friend is starting up. The domain name is (copter Eye dot com). He uses an RC helicopter (similar to the one pictured below) to take aerial video and photography. The site will showcase past work and provide pricing and information… I imagine the logo incorporating an image or sketch of the RC helicopter along with the domain name but I will leave it up to you to come up with something creative! You might also consider incorporating an image of a video camera, some film, or something related to video and photography… The contest will run until we have a suitable logo (hopefully within 1 to 3 days). I will need the PSD or AI file in hi res so that it can be blown up later. Any questions please pm me. Here are a couple images of aerial RC hleicopters to give you an idea: Here is a video that shows the helicopter from a few different angles Payment will be sent upon completion via PayPal. Thanks to all! P.S. we will also be looking for someone to design the website after we have a suitable logo.
20 minutes flat from the moment I posted... that’s impressive! It’s a good start! I think a different color scheme would look better (maybe black, white and neon green for the heli). I would also like it to be a little more telling of what we offer, so I was thinking maybe you could turn the circle behind the heli into a camera shutter or somehow incorporate a video or photography related image... Also make it a little more glossy with more of a web 2.0 feel... Overall, great first submission!
Elvis, Thanks for your submission. I like the simplicity and the colors but it needs to be more telling of what to company offers. I also think the heli graphic would look better if it was head on, or from a different angle (as opposed to the side view). Also, maybe try a different font...
Ariestoteles: - I like the film strip but can I also see a version with a shutter behind the heli? I posted an example of a few shutter images below... Maybe you could make the shutter circle a bit bigger so you can tell what it is... -Also, can you make the body of the Heli a little bit more narrow so it looks more like the RC heli in the picture above? -Please also ad the camera ball (or a video camera) hanging of the bottom of the heli again, like you had it in the first draft...
If anyone else if working on a logo or planning to submit something please let me know! I would really like to see a few different concepts and designs! I have decided to offer $5 for the second and third place contestants in addition to the $40 for first place!!
Feedback for Neticule: I do like the helicopter image but I am not a fan of the font. Perhaps change the helicopter to a neon green and black and try a different font. (I like the creativity with the "eye" but lets leave it out for the next draft...). If possible it would be great to also incorporate something related to photography or film in the logo as well. Thanks for your entry!
How do you like this one? Hope the filmstrip at the top gets the photography point across Lemme know what you think!
Feedback for Neticule: Starting to look really good! I really like the filmstrip. My friend (the owner of the Heli) has some feedback: 1) Please change the font again to make it more blocky and masculine… 2) Move the name to the top and put the film strip below the name and make the film strip a bit larger and wavy. 3) Perhaps the C could somehow be incorporated into the copter tail? (only if you think it would look good) 5) Make the Heli brighter neon green (like the picture above) and give it similar markings as opposed to the black swoosh across the side. 6) Raise the blades a bit and make the landing bars bigger as well. 7) If it’s not too much trouble make the camera ball into an video Camera or something that people will recognize easier…
Feedback for Ariestoteles: Looking good. I think the film strip was more telling than the shutter so let’s go back to the film strip. If you could just change the background color (perhaps white or light grey) and also make the heli look a little more like the one in the top picture? If it could be a bit more of angled profile (like the heli you had in your portfolio) that would be great! Thanks for all your hard work!
