Gymnastics Logo Design Contest- $25 to winner

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by maryhm, Aug 15, 2008.

    I need a logo designed for my pre-school gymnastics business. It needs to be representative of young children and gymnastics. I basically think I know what I want. The name of the business written in a crayon type font, with one or more of the letters representing a child doing something "gymnastic" looking. I'm open to different colors. Logo will be used on web, print, and t-shirts, so needs to be clean. Should say:

    Kolorado Kidnastics (this in the font mentioned above)
    Movement FUNdamentals (this is the tag line, so should probably be in a different font)

    If you think you have a great idea that doesn't follow what I outlined above, send it along! I may decide your idea is better than mine!

    That doesn't really represent young children or gymnastics.

    You could always try doubling the winning amount, maybe that will spur others interests.

    From what I have seen around this forum so far. The logo contest that had $250 as winning prize, it had lots of great entries and around $50 you tend to have good entries.

    Hi maryhm
    I am going to work on your contest and try to make a logo like you described. So , try to make some of the letters in the name look like a kid doing gymnastics ? and try to make it look like crayon ? I will see what I can come up with for you.

    You know how little kids writing looks with a crayon? That's the type of font I'm going for. Here's an example font:
    http://www.getfreefonts.info/free_font.crayon.html

    I don't want the logo too difficult to read, so maybe just one or two of the letters could look like a kid doing gymnastics. If changing the letters is too complicated, maybe have a cute "crayon drawn" looking kid tumbling around the logo somewhere?? I dunno- I'm not set on anything as far as that is concerned. Also, the K in Kolorado should probably be backwards. Make it look more kidlike. I don't know if that's possible though. When I see the right design, I'll know it!!

    Pat3ck:

    Good interpretation!! Can you turn the K in Kolorado to the normal position? Any way to make the K symbol's a little "thicker". They look really thin with this font. Also, the FUN in Fundamentals needs to be capitalized. This font might not allow for that.

    Ok I will turn them in the right position and change FUN to something that would be bolder.

    Pat3ck: I like the one where you did "a little modification". That one is good!

    A4hire: That font is not strong enough. I worry that it wouldn't show up good on a t-shirt.

    Stella: Great work! I like the font and colors on the bottom. Could you make the FUN in fundamentals stand out more, and play around with putting the picture from the first logo into the 3rd one so I can see how it would look?

    Hi I have made some changes to my logo. I think it will stand out more now and should be bright and bold for printing.

    Thank you all for your entries. Stella, you really captured what I was looking for, and I'm declaring you the winner!! I want the 2nd logo in this last series, but without the lines under FUN. Post that here for final approval, then we'll talk in PM about delivery of files and money.
