Objective

15 logos came from fossasia's students for MBDyn's logo task. They all have interesting features and show student talent. Now, 3 logos are selected as starting points for making a refined version:

• Current logo (Pierangelo Masarati): http://tinyurl.com/zuy8z9j
  • made from colored text
• Simple and readable logo, but ignore text below it and icon is too generic (Chanh Dai Nguyen): http://tinyurl.com/zsnazkz
  • extracted svg file using Trace Bitmap and few colors, but out of focus: http://tinyurl.com/j2kslwd
• Logo with joints in the letters, but difficult to read (Baidyanath Kundu): http://tinyurl.com/zctlejm
  • Blender file, courtesy of the student: http://tinyurl.com/god7vcx

Requirements

• Knowledge of vectorial graphic design
• Exchange with the mentors who will guide you through different drafts of the logo to make an appealing final version
• Must be readable when small
• Text should follow a smooth path

Tips

• Keep it simple, readable, and unique
• Create your logo using vectorial graphics (better, with Inskscape, for example) or in raster graphics and then trace it
• Load the logo in Firefox and try zooming in and out of it
• Ask many times for feedback during your creative process
• Read the task description carefully

Expected Outcome

• A logo that reflects the purpose of MBDyn submitted as a svg file
• That's it, concentrate on the logo itself
