actiondesigner said on Jul. 15 '08

ricecakes said on Jul. 15 '08

that would make a great t-shirt. (if you make one, please send it to me. i'll send you a mixtape in return or something.) excellent typography, by the way, i love chunky serif fonts.

actiondesigner said on Jul. 15 '08

I actually plan to ...not my idea though. But I would definitely send one to you. You have my word:)

How about this one for a t-shirt? :-)

is it just me, or is there a human shape being formed in the negative space too? pretty awesome actionjackson.

It's as if Thing from The Addams Family mated with a pigeon...

actiondesigner said on Jul. 15 '08

@smartinup
I saw that also and just kept it that way ...a bit subitle:)

@jguay
I buy that theory:)

hindmarshdesign said on Jul. 15 '08

I agree. Love chunky serifs when used appropriately...your use is very appropriate! Looks great in greyscale. Good work!

tconrad said on Jul. 15 '08

L-0-V-3 the negative space... flagged it.

tconrad said on Jul. 15 '08

...just peeked through your profile and love the progression your work has shown. Visually and conceptually they continue to get better and better, fantastic stuff...really love it.

(Oh and by flagged it, i meant i added it to favorites!)

Love the negative space? Am I missing something in the negative space?

CKeil said on Jul. 15 '08

I think that the circles of the hands are supposed to resemble the "birdman" thing if you know what I mean- it forms eyes in the negative space (not so much negative space as an invisible head/eyes).

gthobbs said on Jul. 15 '08

regardless...it makes me smile

Radhacelis said on Jul. 16 '08

Love the use of the negative space and the concept is great, however, is a bit creepy dunno if that was the intension of the logo. other than that GREAT WORK!

actiondesigner said on Jul. 18 '08

Thanks for all the feedback:)

@Relevant & CKeil: The birdman resemblance was not intentional:) Neither the negative space at first, but it was obvious when I put the two shapes together

@tconrad: Always happy when someone likes my work. Very humble & grateful. Thanks

@hindmarshdesign: The choice of type was easy in this case and feels right. Happy you feel the same way

@Radhacelis: Morphing bird and hand is a good base for a creepy feel. The idea is to make it creepy and different. The colours and overall contrast I feel enhances the creepyness even more.

@gthobbs: always glad to put a smile on your face:) I must have done something right

tariq-design said on Jul. 22 '08

i like the idea but its better for posters

Type08 said on Jul. 24 '08

This one is off the hook! Tariq is right, it brakes the boundaries of a logo...

actiondesigner said on Aug. 01 '08

@tariq-design
Because the logo is too detailed ...or is there any other reason? I guess it is based on your predefined understanding of what a logo is that doesnt make this eligible

@Type08
Dont know if you are being sarcastic:) or that you feel the same as tariq-design? Im just guessing you are with me on this then?!?!:-)

Anyways ...very greatful for all the feedback guys:
