Logo Design Brief
We need a logo that reflects our mission. The idea was created after I stood on an overpass in my Army Dress Uniform on Veterans Day with and American Flag. I stood at attention and saluted the drivers as they passed. Next year we want to spread this type of display across the US on Veterans Day. I like the idea of a simple design that leaves an instant impression. I would use the logo on websites, business cards, patches, flags, and tee-shirts. I like the stencil and graffiti look. Image has to be an anonymous person if an image type is used. Key words I would like to reflect in the logo: Unknown soldier, Pride, look good on an Under Armor style tee-shirt, standing, US flag, veterans, strong, not extreme or too trendy, respectful. and not cartoonish. Visit www.standingquietly.com to see pictures, videos and understand what we are about. I like the Linkin Park album art idea that I will upload. The white line art of a Veterans silhouette and a flag is my idea that I like but as you can tell looks awful under my hand. I liked the idea of seeing the right half of the soldier saluting and having the left half covered by the American Flag. The picture of the Marine is the type of uniform outline I would like. The Logo could incorporate words if it worked but not required. I toyed with the idea of adding 11/11 to the logo to represent Veterans Day but not required. I would need the logo done in vector art formatted for Adobe Illustrator. In the end you are the Artists if you can't or don't care to work in the ways I suggested, fine surprise me with your vision of it!
