- Brief Overview
-
I'm a scifi fan who's looking for logos of companies from the future. These logos will be used on tshirts and possibly other merchandise.
TIP: These entries so far match exactly the style I'm looking for: #66, #46, and #45
This idea is inspired by this picture collection: http://tinyurl.com/cqs6dm . Please note the realism and corporate feel...not cartoonish and far out.
If you want to run an idea by me before you spend the time designing it, that's completely fine. Just ask me in the comments or private message me.
IMPORTANT- READ THIS ENTIRE BRIEF AND THE CONTEST COMMENTS. I continue to receive a large number of submissions that are not what I'm looking for.
- Brand Name
- You pick it!
- Target Audience
-
Mostly male scifi and technology fans (aka "geeks") in the 18-34 age range. The same people who would enjoy a site like this: http://tinyurl.com/32wvah or buy tshirts from here: http://tinyurl.com/awxkou
- Requirements
-
I'm looking for logos of fictional companies from the future. The companies must have products or services that use a science fiction technology.
You can submit any logo idea you'd like, but it must meet these requirements:
1) You must give the fictional company a brand name
2) You must add a slogan explaining what the company's product or service is, and it must involve a future technology that doesn't yet exist.
3) Optional, but encouraged: Attach some type of business extension to the company name. Find an international list here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_…ess_entity (like Inc., AG, Ltd. and so on)Logos will be judged on the cleverness of the company's name/product/slogan and the look of the logo.
These logos should look as realistic as possible. I'm not looking for anything cartoonish here-- the scifi technologies should also be believable within the next 100 years, e.g., a company that slays monsters on Pluto is a bit too ridiculous, but a company that clones pets is plausibly realistic. Products or services that are borderline unethical or even scary are completely okay.
1st prize is $400 to be guaranteed through 99designs. I'll also award at least 9 more prizes of $20 each via Paypal (possibly more than 9 prizes if lots of great entries).
