Fun Logo Design: Hypnotize Community Theme

Go Hypnotize

This project is planned to be a community and authority site for the theme: How to hypnotize and the subject of hypnosis.

We are a team of experienced web designers / developers looking for external design contributions from a leading logo designer, is this you?

The focus of the project is to provide information to people wishing to learn, expand and talk about everything relating to hypnosis. This means that the audience can be anyone from 18 to 80 years old. With qualifications and doctorates to complete novice with no collage education. The guy or girl next door or the guy and girl in the mansion. A very broad reaching target.

The logo needs to product trust. Give a clear indication that the subject is hypnosis and that the site contains the knowledge they are looking for.

Some people will be looking to learn how to be a stage hypnotist and other looking for techniques about self-hypnosis for depression. We will be building a private forum for support on hypnosis which will be a source of advice and discussion.

No cliché swirls or pendulum designs please.

The brand name will be "Go Hypnotize" and the domain: gohypnotize.com which at present is a holding page, waiting for your logo :) to start the design process.

1. We want it to be playful but not cheap or childlike
2. Nothing too elegant - or old fashioned
3. The typeface should be clear, simple and bold. A font that will work well with standard web fonts like ariel and verdana.
4. We want something that stands out. Again being careful not to be too distracting.

Please feel free to experiment with colors as the design of the site will come from the logo.

The files we will require are:
Print file format - .ai (CMYK)
Web file format - .jpg and layered .psd (RGB)

Please do not use any stock images or clip art in the logo.
