for the contest A $100.00 added for Spice up current logo, stationery design and T-shirt Design for Party and Show Band
Submitted design #24
here is an example of what your whole identity campaign could look like. Very simple, classy but still fun... The photos of the band would just be laid out nicely on the inside of the card!! Let me know your thoughts!!! Thanks!!
Regarding design #24
We really like it and it has move up among the top. Would like to see if you could outline "Bobby &" in the same color as the Aristoctas. Also prefer not to have the cat in a tux, and by doing this maybe you cann get the same thickness as the other letters in Aristocats and still have the cat coming through the "O". We love the stars but was wondering if we can just have it on the capital B in "Bobby" and on the Sunglasses of the cat. Last but not least the way the star is hitting on the cats sunglasses is loosing its affect than what I have seen on other designs. I will say that you have cause me to remove quite a few entrants from consideration.

I will get you the changes asap!! thanks for the feedback!! I will come up with something great!
Submitted design #44
here it is with recommendations!! I hope you still like it as much as I do. Let me know if there is anymore changes you would like to see, I think it even looks better with the cat larger with the outline the same size as the rest of letters. Thanks.
Regarding design #44
The only thing is that the cat looks a little fat and old with the shirt and tie. The band leader prefers just cat head and floating bowtie
with no shirt. Also, is the outline of the "Bobby" I was hoping for the silvery thin outline next to red. This one adds a black then silver I think this is the way it is showing. I hope this helps!
Since this is my first time running a contest, I have some question that we are questing that each of our top 3 finalist answer because we are not only looking for a great designer, we are also looking for someone we can easily work with on a continuous basis.
Finalist Question:
1.)What city do you operate out of and is this your primary business?
2.)Do you have a contact phone number if so please provide?
3.)Do you have a website address?
4.)Needless to say we have identified things we extremely like in all of our top 3 designers we have picked, but we would like to get exactly what we want this time around, therefore if we award your design, do we keep working with you on site point until it is what we want, or do we go ahead and award and then work with you to complete the final details outside of the contest?
5.)When it comes to the business card designs, how does this work? Do we award and then send the specific name, telephone numbers, pictures etc., or do I need to go ahead and give all of the specifics now.
6.)Do you provide any printing services in regards to Business Cards, Stationery, t-shirts, etc. (Note: This will not affect our decision, we will be awarding based on design and who we fill comfortable working with on all of our design projects.)
7.)How do you prefer to get paid? I was looking into possible setting up an Escrow but I am not sure I understand it yet but currently researching offering as an option.
Thanks!

Hello Again,
You have perfect timing because I am sitting with the band leader Bobby right now and just showed him your latest entry. Here are is comments:
1.)He would like to see if you could do a black and lighter black in the circle where the cat is so that the red bowtie would show more.
2.)Also, he thinks if you make the width of the glasses thicker would show of the star on top of the black, because we both love the star that you have designed. If by making the sunglasses thicker you have to eliminate the cats eyebrows is ok
3.)In regards to the outline on the "Bobby" is there a way to make it look more 2 or 3 dimensional the one before this one was too much and this one seems not enough.
4.)Also, in order to balance both sides Bobby prefers to keep the curve line going all the way to the other side and would like to stretch the tag line like our original design and place the tagline on the outside the curve line.
5.)In regards to the letterhead we like to keep the bottom the same and then have the top with a wider black wave so that we can place the entire logo front and center on top of black background
If it would be easier for us to speak with you directly send me your number I do not know how you designers are able to design based on words.

Here it is again with changes!! I actually like the black behind the cat to make the tie stand out more!! the letterhead with more black up top and different curve lines looks great and made the outline of bobby thicker and put more effects on word. I also made his glasses thicker and just raised brows!! Let me know your thoughts!! thanks for all the feedback!!

Here is the logo by itself so you can see it alone!!! I really like how it turned out!! Let me know your thoughts!

Hello and Congrats.
You have made it to the final two, therefore we have posted a notice not to except any more design nor respond to anyone but the remaining two finalist.
Now back to the design, we lovethe changes and the Band leader would just like to keep a little separation between the curved line and the "s" in the "Aristocats'.
Now next steps I would like to send what will be on the back of the business cards since it is not your typical information in our we show our agent information. I would like to send it in a word document to give you the concept and then you can take it from there. Do I have your email address? If not please send and I will forward the info.
Way to go! You were always my favorite so I am glad the bandleader chose you as one of the final two.
Regarding design #50
Thank you!! I will send email through private message.

Submitted design #58
Here is the business cards with information. Let me know your thoughts. Thought the rays behind the logo looked like a nice subtle touch!
Submitted design #59
Whole package with new cards. Enjoy!!
Regarding design #58
Hello,
Overall a great job as usual, however is there a way you can display without overlapping so that I can see both of them completely. After reviewing we just have the following request:
1.)We like the rays but I think we would rather have a solid black on the front so that the logo stands out.
2.)We would prefer to keep our information separate from Eastcoast and would prefer to have them on the back of the card and all black on the inside would represent Bobby & The Aristocats.
3.)When it comes to the pictures we do prefer a "slide show" and/or gallery feel for elegance. And we are definitely going to go with black and White pictures. (Note: I am just arriving to the hotel, therefore it will be tomorrow before I can send the pictures)
4.)I can not really tell what font you are using but we prefer a sinple easy to read font. Also for a website we prefer Arial or something similiar utilizing capital letters and lower case.

Regarding design #62
Hello,
I would prefer to swap the pictures on the other side so when you open the card they see the contact information. Also, I will need the square box beside each location as in the email I sent. This is when we write the Agents name in will check off which office he is out off. Also what fonts are using for the back of the card up top in the black header.
We are excited about see all of this come together.
Regarding design #57
Thanks
Regarding design #71
Like the concepts I have some ideas that once I complete the other stuff. I will focus on the merchandise.
