INTERNET NEWS LOGO NEEDED! Your input is critical.

itvbrandon.com

I'm setting up an internet news/ad company and need a strong logo. I come from a video background and know that you designers will make a logo better and faster than I will. It's a start up company that will be expanding within a year and I'm sure there will be more work.

The company is for a small market audience - 200,000 - that hasn't been educated properly about good design work. My goal is to bring a look that they've not seen before. It needs to be strong, bold and simple.

It's mostly an older demographic that no longer has a local TV news station. I'll be aiming at getting more younger people involved as well. The market is agriculture based but I don't want agriculture incorporated into the logo. I want people to think that it's from a metropolitan-type company.

I'm very open for creativity. My only real requirements are...

Blue as the main color. One or two vibrant complimentary colors.
Strong and bold.
TV/internet based so please no thin lines that are going to alias.

"itv" is the main part of the logo with "brandon.com" included but not in the forefront. When I expand the company I'll need to included other ".com"s with the itv brand - for example...I'll be creating "itvnorthern.com" in the next year and want to be able to use the same "itv" main part of the logo.

Other than that, I leave it to you. I have no preconceived notions about what I want there is no hidden agenda.

I'm very excited about seeing what is out there!
