Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by onixz100, Aug 23, 2007.

  1. #1
    Hello community,

    I need a logo for a company named:
    MyLan Printing Media Corporation

    Company description:

    This company manufactures printing plates and printing plate related products. Printing plates are used in mass printing (like for newspapers, magazines, lottery tickets etc.)

    Here are possible text combinations:
    + MPM
    + Mylan Printing Media Corporation
    + MYLAN PRINTING MEDIA Corporation
    + Mylan Printing Media Corp.

    And all variations similar to these.

    Here are some elements that you could include:
    - An orchid flower (Lan means Orchid in Vietnamese)
    - Printing Plates
    - Metal (Aluminum)
    - Printing Dots
    - The 4 printing colors CMYK

    General Information
    We need something simple that can be branded and is very professional. Web 2.0 logos (with massive gloss and or reflections) don't work well on letterheads or signs, so please try to not overuse Web2.0 attributes.

    Color Scheme:
    The color scheme could be loosely based off of: CMYK (Cyan, Magenta mainly).

    Requirements:
    300DPI for printing or Vectorized image
    Medium High to High resolution image (if it is not a vector)
    .psd or .ai files

    Notes:
    The client is extremely picky, so keep in mind:

    - I reserve the right to not choose a winner in the case that no logo satisfies the client
    - I reserve to end the contest at any time with or without reason

    With all honesty, good luck.

    Prize:
    75$ USD via. PayPal

    I am really liking the entries. I hope more come in.

    Shart, I like what you have done there but I am not sure the client would like how thin the letters are.

    Kia Ora, good try :). I think the font should be changed and you should incorporate the swirls somehow a bit better.

    Coolwanz, really good work. I love how you incorporated so much in there.
    Just wondering what it would look like with a little different font :). Also, slogan is not necessary but it was nice of you to put one :)

    Just the word MPM seems a bit thin (in terms of non boldness)

    Nice more designs.

    I just want to give a note:

    - Just to get an idea of the professional look we're trying to get, this company is in the same field and reaching the same scale as other giant companies such as Kodak, Agfa etc.

    Reviews:

    Daveyboy: Interesting design. I see how you're using the CMYK, but I don't think the overall put together is working. However, the elements of it are good.

    Aries: This could potentially be a very good logo, however it just doesn't seem like it would fit a "corporation". You should use this logo concept for other logo comps as it could probably be quite deadly =D. I like the idea though and the usage of CMYK =) , maybe apply it differently.

    Dynamic: Impressive logo, however it looks more like a fashion and "fad" sort of logo (which is a very good thing) but this client is looking for more of a corporate look.

    Coolwanz: Your logo is leading at the moment and I really like what it has to offer. The font is nice already, but I wonder what it would look like with new fonts (this doesn't mean I would trash the original).

    also, if you feel fit; you can polish it up or add / remove a few things - change colors because it's close to what we want. I think with a few minor changes, it really has a large chance of being the winner.

    Cool entry.

    I think the flower needs to be a bit more distinct since it's a bit hard to tell what it is. You're headed in the right direction for sure though.

    Experiment with less generic fonts too :) Let's see how that goes =d

    neme12: Sorry for not reviewing yours before.

    I think you have a very good idea but it's not quite being executed properly. The emblem seems a bit blurry or something.
