Logo Design Brief

I teach guitar and drums on a one to one, face to face basis with adults and children as students. I cover popular music styles on both instruments, rock, pop, blues, soul, funk, jazz, reggae, latin, and country. I am looking for a logo design that might look a little like a trophy. I would like to see an electric guitar neck in golden shiny colored wood, a tom tom drum in glossy maroon, a pair of drumsticks and a guitar plectrum in the trophy like object. I would like the chrome metal parts of the drum to appear shiny gold and the same with the chrome guitar tuning pegs. I would like the text mounted on a satin ribbon in grey. The ribbon might have a 'V' at both ends or perhaps a bird's wing type end and have an interesting scroll shape with the text on the ribbon in a nice regal looking font such as Palace MT. The logo will appear on my computer desktop quite large in the centre with the rest of the background appearing as black ruffled satin. It will go on facebook and must fit the square space they provide. It will appear on all my teaching pdf documents in the top left corner. I want it in my teaching videos in the top left corner. I might also need to have it printed onto T-shirts

I am looking more for perhaps a guitar neck emerging from a drum, a pair of drumsticks and a guitar pick in a more vertical trophy looking arrangement. The text I would like on a grey satin scroll ribbon either arranged above the trophy, symmetrically like a coat of arms or it could perhaps spiral around the trophy. I would like to see the ribbon ends in either a bird's wing end or a 'V' shape. The text on the ribbon I would like in black and should look like it is engraved (English 157 BT is a good font example, to be found on Microsoft Word 2010)). I am looking for a Fender Stratocaster type guitar neck in pale wood finish with gold plated tuning pegs. The drum hoop and tuning lugs are usually finished in chrome but I would also like that to appear gold plated too. I would like to see the drum that has a maroon gloss finish from a below angle so that you cannot see the head of it.. The drumstick do not have to be in scale, they could be as tall as the trophy. I am not sure how to incorporate the guitar pick but I would like to see it in a glossy plastic grey or black finish. I would like the feel or impression of the logo to be upmarket, glossy, expensive, classy, formal and serious. I am looking to use it as a desktop, so perhaps it could have a black background of rippled or ruffled back satin. It will also be used at the start of all tuition videos I will be making, these could appear on a large screen TV so therefore must not pix-elate at this size of resolution. It will also appear in the top left corner of my PDF documents. I also want to be able to put a transfer onto black T-shirts. I will put anywhere I can, onto the screen when an mp3 is playing on windows media player. My guess is that most of my logo will be made using photographic manipulation. If you can come up with what I have described above, the money will be yours.. Normal 0 false false false EN-GB X-NONE X-NONE

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: I have had some very recent acceptors and I want to give them a little time. I will not extend after this. Many designers who have accepted quite early on still have not submitted any designs to me.

Target Market(s)

I teach all ages from 6yrs to pensioners. The vast majority of my students come from upper working class to middle class. Most of the children's parents are reasonably to well-educated people. Some are actually looking for the one to one tailor-made teaching that I provide.
